I haven't trusted polls since I read that 62% of women had affairs during their lunch hour. I've never met a woman in my life who would give up lunch for sex.

Somnath Chatterjee
Acknowledge your crisis, resign, ... and let's go to the polls.
Piero Fassino
It helps that he's ahead in the polls. But as he always says, polls go up and down.
Michael Fishman
The polls never told the truth.
Otton Solis
We didn't get annihilated and we never gave up, so I'm proud of that. (Gulf Coast) just does an incredible job -- they shot 55 percent from the field during the game -- and I personally believe they probably could be higher in the polls right now than they are.
Chanda Rigby
I'll frankly be happy when Herndon reaches 25,000 and the [disclosure] law is enacted. If enough money is spent on phone polls, advertisements and having people deliver signs door-to-door, that could make a change in the election.
Dennis Husch
Senator Martinez is not driven by polls; he is driven by the needs of the state of Florida and its 17 million constituents.
Mel Martinez
Yeah, it could be. Interestingly, some national polls show that John McCain would beat Hillary Clinton.
David Rebovich
It's an amazing, very rare admission. Republican pollsters have argued for the last couple of decades that the generic congressional polls always overstate the Democrats' participation.
Wes Anderson
This survey tells us that candidates who support pre-K have a better chance of winning at the polls.
Cecilia Zalkind
It is my duty to come to Nepal during elections. I will help create an atmosphere for polls.
Manisha Koirala
Kennedy has been wounded, and his polls show he's been hurt badly. He was a prohibitive favorite before, and now in some quarters he is not the favorite.
David Nyhan
Judging from all the polls, if you do actually achieve a thorough functioning democracy [in Arab countries], you're probably going to have a government which will be more Islamic, more anti-American and more anti-Israeli.
Dewayne White
The polls are pretty clear that voters want limits on the government's power.
Geoff Garin
The polls show that most of the people watching were concerned about when the troops are coming out of Iraq. That question was not answered.
Rogan Kersh
The people overwhelmingly said at the polls [on Nov. 8] that the current administration needed to be changed, but these guys want to perpetuate it anyway.
Leonard Remo
When a 67 percent majority is required to pass a bond, I think it is incumbent that every attempt be made to get everybody possible to the polls.
Stan Olson
I am confident of the Congress party winning the polls.
Tarun Gogoi
Look, I can't say the polls mean nothing when I'm in fourth and then think they're a big deal when I'm in second, but I'm clearly moving up while the others aren't. So, that's got to be a good sign in any campaign.
Anthony Weiner
It is important to balance the local and national media. They each have different needs and cover things differently. Recently, [Bush] has been less adept and more easily thrown off message. This could be one reason he's gone down in the polls.
Darrell West
We look at the polls, see we're ahead, get a warm feeling inside, put the poll down and get back to work.
Carlo Loparo
(Early voting) is always a time which the best-organized candidates have a little more of an advantage. The better-organized candidates can get their people to the polls early.
Jerry Polinard
They'll vote against any local bill, anything to raise anything. They're afraid they'll be punished at the polls.
Stan Bingham
Latin America is addicted to polls. The media publishes anything. They don?t filter [the polls]; they?re not demanding with the pollsters. In addition, there are different ways of looking at the same poll.
Fernando Tuesta
Parliamentary polls will kick-start the democratic process in Chechnya.
Alu Alkhanov
I am confident of the AGP winning the polls and forming the next Government.
Brindaban Goswami
These numbers are not important to us because Republican voters focus on principle, not public polls which will continue bouncing around.
Alberto Martinez
We're not putting any stock in any polls right now. The only poll that matters is the one on Election Day.
Chris Ingram
The political affect on the market continues to be small. We think that at the end of March and beginning of April, the polls will start to matter.
Manuel Torres
If there's somebody who really lost the elections, it's the exit polls.
Alfonso Pecoraro Scanio
Presidents who are low in the polls have a hard time getting Congress to go along with them. He has to persuade the people in Congress to follow his legislative agenda and they're all worried about 2006.
Charles Franklin
I'm sure it will help him in the polls. But, whatever. He gets my vote.
Ryan Clark
As chairman, I don't think it's my place to tell an incumbent member of Congress what to do. He's smart enough. He knows what the figures are, he knows what the polls are looking like, he knows his district. He's got to come to his own conclusions.
Art Torres
We face a battle for hearts and minds sometimes with animal rights groups who have figures of their own and polls of their own.
Phil Jenkins
If there was a playoff, (polls) wouldn't make a bit of difference. But there's built-in politics. Somebody has to sift through that and say, 'There's a good team.' We have the people to do that.
Andy Curtin
I have been through about 11 campaigns and they are never over until the campaign day itself ends. As people focus on issues, not on the horse race, not on polls, not on sidebar issues, but as they focus on issues that people care about in the country it makes a difference.
Jim Bradley
The reason these things exist is because Focus on the Family and these other groups read the polls, and they know that when people think that homosexuality is a casual choice, they're going to be antigay, and they're going to support antigay laws.
Wayne Besen
We see it as a desperate attempt by a gubernatorial candidate who is behind in the polls and has missed every mark it has set for itself.
Brian Winfield
This is identification at the polls, not proof of citizenship.
Karen Osborne
These polls are nice, but they don't really mean a whole lot. We're two weeks away from (the playoffs) when everything really counts.
Willie Schlarman
This sounds to me like the ploy of a desperate man who is down in the polls.
Freman Hendrix
If media polls were a good indication of general election results, only Democrats would run for office.
Shannon Flaherty
From now on, when one goes to the polls, they will have to show ID, per Prop. 200.
Brad Nelson
That's the decision for the polls to make. I'm just happy with the team I have.
John Stout
Security agencies have pledged maximum security for the polls so we are confident that elections will be held smoothly, despite the difficult situation.
Tejmuni Bajracharya
That will most certainly disrupt the November polls and will also weaken state institutions, which the Maoists want.
Yubaraj Ghimire
The road to success is going out there, door-to-door and establishing a connection with people. That connection will hopefully get people to the polls.
Dennis Husch
The governor has never governed by polls.
Mark Rickel
This is interesting. Usually corruption doesn't even come up in polls.
Clay F. Richards
We had polls ... showing us at zero and 1 (percent), and fighting for our very survival holding onto a handful of seats.
Goldy Hyder
It is time for the four EC members to show responsibility for the unfair polls.
Sanan Kachornprasart
Ads like this are the reason that less than half of the voting population in America bothers to go to the polls.
Joe Trippi
We're in a very good position - in fundraising, in the polls. There's no reason for us to get out. We're going to win this.
Bob Paduchik
We're number two in the polls and the number one candidate, Jim Davis, has more money and a better chance of winning if we unite behind him.
Scott Maddox
If you look at who goes to the polls now to vote, that's self-selected too.
Nina Zagat
Don't worry about polls, but if you do, don't admit it.
Rosalynn Carter
Early polls bounce all over the place. We just don't put a whole lot of stock in polls.
Albert Martinez
The Maoists used to attack in remote areas and district headquarters and now they are targeting urban areas as they had made it clear that they will focus on disrupting the local polls.
Kundan Aryal
The forgotten ones will ultimately decide who the next president is, ... According to the latest polls, Bush and Kerry are neck and neck. We will make the difference. We will be the deciding factor.
Sean Combs
We know that polls are just a collection of statistics that reflect what people are thinking in 'reality.' And reality has a well known liberal bias.
Stephen Colbert
People really need to know [who their mayoral candidates are] before they go to the polls. Unless politicians can articulate local concerns during this election, we may well see a further decline in interest in local politics.
Prof Nico Steytler
Historically, when big issues confront the electorate, young voters come to the polls. In 2004, it was the war in Iraq.
Daniel Shea
It seems like whenever we go into an election, we are down in the polls. Republican activists are at their strongest when they are backed into a corner.
Jon Fleischman
Polls explain, not predict. They are instruments that have limits and collect answers from people who may or may not be telling the truth.
Fernando Tuesta
They could not get Tom DeLay at the polls. They could not get Mr. DeLay on the House floor. Now they're trying to get him into the courtroom. This is not going to detract from the Republican agenda.
Kevin Madden
[Unlike football, there are no polls.] That's one good thing about swimming, ... Only the clock judges you. There's no computer error.
Klete Keller
This is a series of photo-ops entirely driven by polls that tell the president that he isn't doing enough on energy. The president is talking a good game, but his budget doesn't back it up.
Philip Clapp
In order to avoid denying Congolese citizens their right to contest the upcoming polls, every candidate who has not registered will be allowed to do so when giving official notice of their candidacy.
Apollinaire Malu Malu
I don't see a bounce for Calderon from this. I really don't think he is in first place nor will he be in first place in coming days. As the polls unfold, he's not going to move up.
Daniel Lund
We get complaints (on) just about everything else relating to voting except voter fraud at the polls.
David Freed
The markets are reacting to the polls, but investors will sell off more aggressively if Flores doesn't make it into the second round.
Boris Segura
He's more concerned with results than he is about polls.
Allan Hubbard
I'm not really cut out to be a politician. You know that I sometimes don't know when to shut up. That could be a drawback. I'm an atheist. So there you go right there. I can't be elected to anything because polls all say that people won't elect an atheist... As we all know, that is something people won't accept.
Ron Reagan
Enormous numbers of voters have gone to the polls peacefully.
Carina Perelli
The proposal to hold polls in May is unacceptable for us.
Donald Tusk
We haven't been paying close attention to the polls.
James Taranto
As it stands now, close to 8 million voters could be at the mercy of these faulty, unreliable and decertified machines. Californians deserve to go to the polls knowing that their vote will be counted, not discarded.
Mark Rosenbaum
It is an election-year issue, it is something people are concerned about. It is something they will go to the polls with, because it affects their lives, their jobs.
Caroline Espinosa
I wouldn't overestimate the pre-election polls too much.
Bohumil Doležal
All the polls suggest the Liberal Party is heading for a disaster.
Mark Brindal
Was not unexpected.... But it was a divided nation that went to the polls.
Goeran Persson
We were all responsible in one way or another for the political violence that took place during the polls.
Faure Gnassingbe
The exit polls (for 'Cradle') were really excellent with a very strong definite recommend category.
Dan Fellman
If that's true, it's certainly welcome news. But we have reason to believe that voters are already being challenged at the polls, and we'll certainly be monitoring it.
Jennifer Palmieri
We're not focused on polls.
Matthew Miller
Each of these states is on a collision course that could result in chaos at the polls in November as millions of eligible voters find they are unable to cast their ballot.
Justin Levitt
There are well settled provisions of federal law that guarantee bilingual assistance at the polls for those of Puerto Rican origin and others.
Ralph Boyd
Here's what we do know: Polls are driving President Bush's court picks. At a low ebb in his presidency, the president has passed over well-known, if controversial, constitutionalists and chosen a sphinx-like presidential pal.
Mark Moller
I have always voted every time I could get to the polls. I failed in that regard.
Joel Baker
Well, something's got to give. Otherwise Germany will be back to the polls in a few weeks' time.
Ashley Davies
Most of the polls and rankings are generated out of Little Rock and those people never bother to go see the West play. That's a lack of respect for our conference more than anything else.
Barry Gebhart
Up to this point, we are very pleased with this group. When you go up in the polls, it does create more problems. We're been up there before, but never this high. You can stay there as long as you don't lose. But this season is really just getting under way.
Ralph Miller
We have a very comfortable lead and our candidate will have a clean, clear and comfortable sweep of the polls in the first round.
Dr Ruhakana Rugunda
Public opinion polls are rather like children in a garden, digging things up all the time to see how they're growing.
J. B. Priestley
There is no place in our democracy for faulty voting equipment, long lines at the polls, untrained poll workers and any forms of chads.
Donna Brazile
There are a lot of uncertainties. Polls don't really mean a lot.
Kirby Daley
We're looking to do all kinds of interesting research. We want to be different from other polls. . . . We're not just going after horse-race issues. We want to talk about concerns people face day-to-day.
Patrick Murray
Postponing the polls will have adverse impact on the Palestinians.
Saeed Seyam
This is about looking like they're doing something. I'm sure polls will show that the administration is doing something on energy, but the real record doesn't bear that out.
Bill Prindle
It's great for our fans, but it's right up there with preseason polls and preseason All-America lists. At the end of the day, you have to prove it.
Lars Tiffany
If the tests prove effective, we will consider the mass use of such equipment at the federal polls in 2007-2008.
Alexander Veshnyakov
We all know the decision is a political gimmick to please the backward castes and win polls. Politics should not come into creativity. This is a shameful decision. It would only reduce competence.
Rina Dhaka
The mayor's race is really what drives people to come out to the polls, and without it, it's hard to get people excited. This is the first time in my memory that neither the Democrats nor the Republicans have had a contested primary for mayor.
Jan Hardesty
If we can get Proposition 73 voters into the polls, it will have a benefit for the other propositions as well.
Mike Vallante
If you look at the polls, you'd have to say, the mayor is likely to win. I don't believe in polls, but a lot of Democrats are saying, 'It's over.' I know Freddy is not saying that, and I'm not saying that. You just have to hold out hope.
Geraldine A. Ferraro
Polls show this is not a high priority for Idahoans.
Sen. David Langhorst
Oklahoma was the last of those teams in the polls, but the computers and strength of schedule moved them up.
Jerry Palm
The final week is when people are really paying attention, and you want to make sure your message is the last message in the voters' hands before they go to the polls.
James Vaughn
Today, we'll make reality what the polls have been saying.
Oscar Arias Sanchez
They accuse the Bush nominees of being out of the mainstream of American thought, but polls indicate clearly that the positions they (liberal special interest groups) hold are the ones that are way, way out of the mainstream of American thought.
Charles Pickering
I figured out Karl Rove's political strategy -- make gas so expensive, no Democrats can afford to go to the polls."
Senator John Kerry
People don't like having to go to the polls, it's inconvenient. They don't like standing in line.
Krysty Marin
Polls only tell you want has happened in the past. They cannot accurately predict the future.
Jason Klindt
It is potentially an interesting alternative to Gallup polls or to specialists reporting from the region. It's a way of going directly to individuals in the region or outside who have knowledge or interest in the political and economic events in the area.
Charles Polk
Those folks do polls every day. If anybody can put a poll together, it's those guys.
Steve Monks
It will be better for the ULFA to first shun violence and then contest the assembly polls and come to power.
Pramod Mahajan
Gas prices are the classic pocketbook issue for the average person and the average family, and these are things that they notice very much. It helps explain the paradox we see in the polls: The economy is very good, but right now a majority of people say it isn't. The hurricane, and its aftermath, will only exacerbate this problem.
Charlie Black
The Foreign ministry does not comment on visits by individuals. We assume that there is even less point in such meetings after the polls than there was ahead of the election.
Andrei Popov
I would love for them to be the first, but I'm for anybody. If you play a good schedule, as determined both by the opinion pollsters and the computer polls, and you go undefeated, you should have a chance to play at the highest level.
Craig Thompson
Where are the people who lost their jobs or were denied housing? ... You've got to have a huge education campaign to tell people to go to the polls to fix a problem they don't think exists.
Dennis Bailey
Many people are saying they will not go. Many people fear they will be attacked because of the big distances they must walk to the polls.
Yolette Etienne
If we are able to conduct it by mail, there would be no polling locations. Running parallel elections, one in the mail and one at the polls, is very expensive.
Janice Atkinson
It seems to me at this point that only one thing is certain -- the exit polls were completely wrong.
Roberto Calderoli
We think it's an innovative way to remind California voters to get out to the polls.
Greg Creed
The important thing now, for the first time in a long time they have turned to the polls and not to the guns.
Carina Perelli
The race is a jumble. There are half a dozen candidates who are in double digits, low double digits in the polls. Nobody's a front-runner.
David Yepsen
Yet the barely-moving polls and the lack of major gaffes or policy collapses has made it duller than I, for one, hoped it would be.
Andrew Marr
Private polls have shown that his endorsement has actually moved votes.
Ethan Geto
It was definitely an adult audience and it was all ethnicities. It was 56 percent non-African-American. The exit polls are 80 percent in the top two boxes with a 69 percent 'definite recommend.' I think the picture's going to have pretty good legs.
