Allison Hantschel writes for DAME Magazine (npub1vq8…m4d2) about the media’s obsession with polls and their limited usefulness. “Our presidential elections are determined by the electoral college, which means it doesn’t matter what people in general think. If it were, I’d be in line to visit the Al Gore Presidential Library right now,” she concludes.
