I think most polling shows that most Americans agree that when it comes to employment that, you know, people should be really judged by, you know, their competency and not, you know, who it is they choose to love or who they're in a relationship with. (Mark Takano)
While it's very hard to know exactly how to measure public opinion there, because there's no really good polling, the fact of the matter is that in all the polls I've seen the vast majority of the Iraqis prefer to be free and are pleased that the coalition freed them. View quote

According to a Public Policy Polling survey, most Americans find lice and colonoscopies more appealing than Capitol Hill. View quote
Ron Fournier
It only takes around 60 seconds to cast your vote in the polling station. 60 seconds to protect the economy, 60 seconds to protect your jobs, 60 seconds to protect the services your family relies on. A lot is at stake during those 60 seconds. View quote
Ross Kemp
Democratic strategists and operatives should not design a strategy based off today's conditions. They should be setting a strategy for where the trajectory of polling is headed. View quote
James Carville
Polling is merely an instrument for gauging public opinion. When a president or any other leader pays attention to poll results, he is, in effect, paying attention to the views of the people. Any other interpretation is nonsense. View quote
George Gallup
Politically aware citizens are ready to exercise their franchise this time, and nobody can stop the nationalist force from coming to power at the Centre. But we must ensure 100 per cent polling to strengthen them. View quote

Joe Biden
[H]ow popular is the president? Normally, they lose seats when they are kind of average popular. If they are unpopular, it tends to have a magnifying effect. And we do know, from averaging all the polls together, that Donald Trump is the most unpopular first-year president in the history of polling, easily. There's nobody – he is first, second, and third place. So that is a bad thing... You know, there could be a foreign intervening event. Martians land with the same hair and say, you know, "Only he understands us, and we are going to save the planet." But, assuming normalcy, the forces are pretty bad. View quote
Mike Murphy (political consultant)
Many in the audience had already been riled up by Trump's famous dismissal of McCain's years as a POW - "I like people who weren't captured." They'd been appalled when, just months earlier, a Trump White House aide allegedly dismissed the opinion of the cancer-stricken McCain because "he's dying anyway." They'd been enraged that, two days before the memorial service, Trump had again attacked McCain after reports of his refusal to lower American flags in his honor. On Election Day, many of them - led by McCain's widow, Cindy - took revenge: Arizona is on target to choose a Democrat - Biden - for the first time in almost 25 years. Biden's early lead was such that Fox News declared him the winner in the Grand Canyon State on Tuesday, altering the electoral math and pulling the rug out from under Trump's plans to claim victory in the overall polling before the Biden-leaning mailed ballots were counted in the Midwestern states.
