Reply #45: if you don't care about polls, then you have no argument

[OnTheOtherHand]

Before you can use recalled vote as a measure, you should conduct some basic QA to determine whether the measure is biased, and if so, how biased it might be.

I press you to estimate the degree of bias in your measure, and you come back with "I don't care what your poll said." (Of course it isn't "my poll," but hey, whatever.)

Assuming that a measure is unbiased because you really, really want it to be -- well, hey, it's a choice.

Calling me a faith-based naysayer -- also a choice.

Accusing people of ad hominems -- also a choice. Sort of an ironic one, I would say.
