Poll: Nearly 1 in 5 Americans believe Taylor Swift election conspiracy theory

[joelbc1]

Lol this isn't a conspiracy. This really is no different than James Woods or Tim Allen coming out and asking for Republican votes.

What is funny to me though is the biggest mouth pieces for votes every 4 years are celebrities. You know the celebrities that are hilariously disconnected from real life and real problems the public that is voting has.

Celebrities and rich people..,..probably.

Here's the question and the sampling methodology.

34.Do you think that a covert government effort for Taylor Swift to help Joe Biden win the presidential election actually exists, or not?​

Response:	Feb. 2024
Exists	18%
Does not exist	73%
(VOL) Don’t know	9%
(n)	(902)

METHODOLOGY​

The Monmouth University Poll was sponsored and conducted by the Monmouth University Polling Institute from February 8 to 12, 2024 with a probability-based national random sample of 902 adults age 18 and older. Interviews were conducted in English, and included 183 live landline telephone interviews, 362 live cell phone interviews, and 357 online surveys via a cell phone text invitation. Telephone numbers were selected through a mix of random digit dialing and list-based sampling. Landline respondents were selected with a modified Troldahl-Carter youngest adult household screen. Interviewing services were provided by Braun Research, with sample obtained from Dynata (RDD, n= 557), Aristotle (list, n= 152) and a panel of prior Monmouth poll participants (n= 193). Monmouth is responsible for all aspects of the survey design, data weighting and analysis. The full sample is weighted for region, age, education, gender and race based on US Census information (ACS 2021 one-year survey). For results based on this sample, one can say with 95% confidence that the error attributable to sampling has a maximum margin of plus or minus 4.1 percentage points adjusted for sample design effects (1.56). Sampling error can be larger for sub-groups (see table below). In addition to sampling error, one should bear in mind that question wording and practical difficulties in conducting surveys can introduce error or bias into the findings of opinion polls.

Random perhaps in a certain area with a demographic perhaps more prevalent with a certain group?

I saw another poll this weekend that had 10 percent of the Americans polled who believe the earth is flat.

I am not sure if there is a name for this mental condition, but we have a ton of people now in this country (and world) who believe every single conspiracy they hear / read.

If only they’d go for a long drive - right over the edge.

It’s actually 1-in-4, because anyone who answers “Don’t know” should be lumped in with the “Exists” idiots.

Or was a secret Muslim. This country had some sad people in it.

There are many polls showing that upwards of 6-in-10 Republicans believe the 2020 election was stolen.
