It appears they take these polls online.

This stuff can easily be faked.
if they're strawpolls, then yeah, they're probably inaccurate. that being said, i can't find the poll that leisuresuit912 sourced on their site under live surveys, so it may not have been a strawpoll. which also seems likely if they specifically sampled citizens of specific key states

would be best if he just posted the source of the poll to be sure

Number one: this has little to nothing to do with if the FBI finds her guilty

Number two: right now any poll is unreliable, nothing will be clear until the day of the vote at this point
it has to do with how this might affect the election. i'm not sure how a poll would be unreliable because it's not the general election results, it's literally just a gauge of public opinion. scientific polling is considered accurate with a random sample size of at least 1000 and an error of +/-3%, and this passes both of those with flying colors at a random sample size of 4500 and an error of +/-1.9%

Edit: this poll was taken from October 12-14 + new polls in seemingly cherry picked states, it says it in the image. That seems a bit suspicious
the states they chose were the ones that are more contended

13 people being more in favor because of this is what tells me this is pretty fake
slight correction: 13% of 4500 people who already supported clinton. 1% of those who were undecided, 0% of those who already supported Annoying Orange.

this could be explained by a perception of higher stakes, people that know they don't want Annoying Orange but may not have been planning on voting may decide it's more important for them to do so now. just a guess, though. contended elections tend to result in higher turnout, and controversy like this would certainly stir that pot.

the other/not sure category is the one you want to look at. that's still 34% of undecided voters in that poll that may sway toward Annoying Orange. people who have already made up their mind about what candidate they don't like aren't going to change their mind for something that isn't even confirmed to be a big deal

overall, it's just a well-written show. good character development, good world building, good vibes. i think people understandably get skeptical about popular media addressing feminist/lgbt topics, since it's incredibly common for writers to lazily shove those themes in there for brownie points, and it's annoying and silly and it doesn't actually tend to offer the representation that they're hoping to get credited for. the times that su touches on those areas, it doesn't often feel as though they're doing it to prove a point; it's not given any fireworks or anything, it's just there and it feels natural. i definitely can't remember any time when it was important that someone was female or that there was a relationship between two femme-presenting characters, it's just how things are and it it's never a big deal to any conflicts or vital to anyone's character.

all that being said, obviously the show has its problems. like, i don't always particularly like steven as he's written. more recent episodes have humanized him a lot more, but he was always kinda too perfect. sometimes the voice acting and dialogue could be better, sometimes they have some pacing problems, and they go on hiatus every forgetin five episodes or smth, but overall i enjoy the show, and i think it's been a big influence on me and lots of other people.

also i suspect the next episode airing "before thanksgiving" will be pretty gay but i have no proof of this

Nobody is gonna make you drop your pants every time you want to use the bathroom so if you actually look like a woman you can still use the women's room
as i said before, letting the government decide if people look masculine/feminine enough to use the loving bathroom is a really dumb idea. just let people be lol

well to be fair, any sane organization would probably fire an employee that's been caught up in a national scandal since they don't want to be a part of their drama, but obv i'm sure the things he said offer additional concerns to them than just that lol
