Aussie News paper poll wording.


Recommended Posts

The local Murdoch Newspaper just outdid itself for misuse of the language.

Premier Mike Rann, South Australia's incumbent head of government has

announced he will lead his party at the next election in 2010.

'The News' has published the following poll.

Am I the only one who sees the poll as unanswerable in its present form?

Should Mike Rann stay or should he go? Submit your vote now.

Yes

No

That poll reminds me of an old song, "Should I Stay or Should I Go" by the Clash. Our local radio station plays this a lot.

Anyway, I'd vote No. That means Mike Rann should not stay nor should he go. As a result, maybe he'll implode from the stress.

Good God. They need remedial poll taking lessons. A basic Yes/No poll requires only ONE question. That is truly ugly, and they will obviously use the results to prove anything they darned well want.
