I've been phone-polled before. Most times the questions are worded in a way that they elicit the response the pollster is looking for.
I've been polled 3 or 4 times in the last 11 years. And they do word them in some VERY specific ways. I challenged the wording of 3 or 4 questions on one occasion and got some VERY annoyed responses after the 2nd challenge.
I doubt they used mine. Probably found file 13 in a BIG hurry.
When you read the actual poll you can usually scroll down to the bottom and see what the wording and weighting methodology are. You might be surprised at what you find there. Or just what you are expecting.
