Why Not All Polls Are Equal

I'm probably not the only one who wondered why the YouGov poll after the last leaders debate gave Cameron such a high rating when his onscreen performance was dreadful.  It turns out this internet poll was taken between just 9.27pm and 9.31 pm. Which means that, voting opened immediately after David Cameron finished his closing statement without waiting for the other candidates' closing statements. Voting closed just after Nick Clegg's closing statement got started.

Human rights campaigner Craig Murray has revealed the truth about YouGov and its Tory backers in his recent blog post.

It does really make you wonder if the whole Vote Cameron Get Murdoch line is true after all.
