Polls with Larry Sharpe

[edit]

Look carefully at the polls – he's only included in those with Nixon as a WFP candidate, which is now a hypothetical scenario. (Click the "show" button on the hypothetical polling box.) Mélencron (talk) 20:34, 8 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Again, the polls listed above are those that purely test any candidates on the ballot except for Nixon. The ones in the hypothetical section include any candidates currently on the ballot with Nixon. These two were previously combined into a single table before the WFP offered its ballot line to Cuomo, which he accepted. After this happened, these two tables were separated with the latter placed into the hypothetical section because Nixon is not on the ballot. If there are polls that include Sharpe – and there will be – then they'll be added to the above polling table. However, he is not currently included in any poll scenario which did not also test Nixon. The numbers you're adding are for those polls which already include Nixon, which are considered hypothetical because she is not on the ballot. The numbers you're adding, therefore, are factually inaccurate because they were taken from different questions asked within the same poll. Look at the poll reports carefully – it's 95% of my editing on U.S. election articles and I'm confident in this when I say this. Mélencron (talk) 20:53, 8 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
