Dumbest. Poll Question. Ever.
From this weeks Public Policy Polling poll of the California Senate Race:
Q7 Do you have a higher opinion of Barbara Boxer’s hair or Carly Fiorina’s hair?
Barbara Boxer’s hair ………………………………… 19%
Carly Fiorina’s hair …………………………………… 14%
Not sure …………………………………………………. 67%
Sigh.
H/T: The Crossed Pond
With a 5 point hair differential, this race is all but over.
That 67% decline to make a choice is a rare cause for optimism about our fellow citizens.
Most of these issue questions (and what could be more of an issue than these women’s hair) are totally worthless and usually end up with a set of results that are contradictory. That’s why I never pay much attention to them.
Agree with Tano.
Also, it’s borderline sexist to even have such a question. I don’t remember any polls whether Obama or McCain had a bigger dick.
