Tisei not truthful about poll showing lead over Tierney

May 24, 2012 By fredrichlariccia

So, not satisfied that his negative, guilt-by-association, innuendo-ridden, gutter attacks (ITEM 3/15/12) against Congressman John Tierney orchestrated the desired public outrage, ‘has-been’ career politician Richard Tisei now releases a so-called internal campaign poll from GOP pollster John McLaughlin purportedly showing him 7 points ahead.

Increduously, the poll also shows Scotty ‘Etch-a-Sketch’ Brown up 24 points over Elizabeth Warren in the 6th Congressional District. But wait, look again; the poll is garbage!

“The GOP poll does have elevated Republican representation,” McLaughlin said in an e-mail to the Salem News.

The actual makeup of registered voters in the district is: 13% Republican, 30% Democrat, and 57% Independent.  But the poll respondents were 22% R, 29% D, and 49% I.

According to the article even the Republican pollster admitted the fuzzy-math numbers were bogus.

The late conservative British Prime Minister, Benjamin Disraeli, said: “There are three kinds of lies: lies, damned lies, and statistics.”

Voters, if he can’t even tell the truth about his own poll, why should we believe anything Richard Tisei says during this campaign?

Sincerely,
Fred Rich LaRiccia
