Lara Logan Says Polls Aren't Measuring Rebellion Against 'Political Control' Over COVID-19
July 18, 2020Most reasonable Americans remember how bad the vast majority of presidential polling was in 2016, when nearly all major surveys, networks, and newspapers had Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton trouncing GOP nominee Donald Trump, and by a lot.
There were a couple of outlier polls – one from the L.A. Times, believe it or not, and also from Rasmussen – that showed Trump defeating Clinton, but few mainstream media outlets paid them any mind.
Nope, it was going to be Hillary in a landslide because Trump was only attracting a minority of dregs, goofballs, ignoramuses and, in Hillary’s word, “deplorables.”

Well, the rest is history.
Now, as the 2020 election approaches, many of the same polls and media outlets have presumptive Democratic nominee Joe Biden, who can’t remember where he is or what he’s done most of the time, blasting past the president by double digits in many cases.
It seems like more of the same, and investigative reporter Lara Logan – in an interview with Laura Ingraham on Friday – made that point.
But she also went further. She believes that there is a huge, largely hidden bloc of voters who are fed up with the ongoing coronavirus mandates and nonsense and are ready to vote their frustration – by selecting Trump – in November.
“How big of a problem is it that we don’t have any semblance of an objective press less than four months out of a presidential election?” Ingraham asked.
"Many people that I speak to say, ‘Why won’t they just come out and admit they really are not objective in any way and that they just hate this president and they will do anything to stop him being reelected?'” she responded. “That’s very obvious to most people.”
“You always wonder with these polls, first of all why anyone is listening to the polls because they were all wrong last time,” the former CBS News correspondent noted further.
She then pointed out that many Americans she talks to “pay absolutely no attention” to the polls, asserting that “one question” polling is not taking into account the daily ignorance and tyranny of ongoing coronavirus lockdowns, mask mandates, and the like.
“The one question they say the polls aren’t asking is how many people are — how many lives is it costing to save each person from this virus?” Logan said.
“That’s the question that really resonates with people all over this country, she added, describing herself as an American who lives in “flyover country.”

“It’s all that people are talking about here from morning to night, they don’t trust the numbers, they don’t trust the CDC, they take the virus very seriously indeed,” Logan noted further. “It should not be mistaken for people being skeptics or doubters or doubting the severity of the illness that results from this virus, it’s not that at all.”
American business owners, particularly in blue states, are reportedly hesitant to reopen even though some can right now because they’re concerned about new closure orders to ‘flatten’ the coronavirus curve amid new surges (though case numbers are definitely being manipulated).
That’s frustration that will be voiced at the polls in November, for certain, and Logan thinks that will be to the president’s advantage.
