my answer to poll questions are almost always outside the scope of the given answer choices. they are useful in some very cut and dry situations but tend to give warped conclusions on opinion related topics because of their simplicity. hmmm kinda like
political polls..... . people try to use them to gain peoples opinions when they are only useful for gaining peoples facts. Age is a "fact" position on abortion is a complicated "opinion" and simple answers force people to choose
the answer most closely resembling their position which can make it seem that the general populations position is much more extreme than it really is.
