Push poll is where a poll you are participating has leading questions. It's an art perfected by karl rove. He started doing this back in Tx. to help get geogie the governorship. He send out pollsters to ask voters if they would still be likely to vote for Ann Richards if she admited she was lesbian.
Today voters are being asked, "Would you be likely to vote for [insert dem candidate name] if you new his policies would make it easier for terrorists to attack the USA".
This plants the negative idea in people's minds. Getting many to have that thought in the back of their mind when they vote.
>>>2) Repub robo calls using push polling - they had an article in the LA paper last week with a profile of a guy who runs a robo calling center. He was proud of the number of calls he could perform per hour. He's a former Reagan appointee. Now employeed by the repubs to perform one of their Rove's favorite tactics. Push calling. Trying to put bad perceptions of dems in voters minds.
