Well, I see they’ve finally started circulating various pieces of so-called “closed polling data.” Interesting. The closer we get to voting day, the more of this fiction there will be, and the role of our honest, real sociology—real polling—will only grow.
Many thanks to everyone who is helping with this.
I’ve published the latest data and commented on it on my program, and now here are the slides for those who like to sit with the numbers and study them carefully.
Let’s take a look at the candidates’ ratings this week.
Including undecided voters, it looks like this:
Without undecided voters (that is, the voting forecast), it looks like this:
Nothing has changed. Fluctuations of 1% don’t really count.
And what about the negative ratings?
Sobchak still leads by a wide margin, with no change. Why? The answer is on the next slide:
Because there is no campaigning, no real campaign activity, no election contest at all. Seventy-four percent of respondents didn’t notice anything whatsoever.
And even if they had noticed, they would hardly have been impressed. The “candidates” talk endlessly about international issues: Syria, America, Donbas, Crimea, and so on.
Nobody needs any of that crap.
As you can see, the first international issue on the list—America—comes only tenth in people’s priorities.
So they’re either doing nothing at all, or if they are doing something, it’s about the wrong things.
This is not an election. You should observe, but voting is foolish and shameful. It only rewards doing nothing.
