Title Should Have Been

There's No Excuse For Intentionally Promoting Old Poll Numbers As Current Opinion.

I suspected it was an honest mistake on your part which is why my post was not addressed to you. RL acted as if that didn't matter and responded with another poll that may be out of date. Normally a March poll would be reasonable, but not when the situation is in significant flux.

I'm sure any of us who report polls have accidently used an old one from time to time, but I hope few would defend them when the error was pointed out.

Regards,
Mark
