"There are definitely too many polls conducted in American politics. One or two polls wouldn’t hurt the country, because they keep the people informed about the candidates in the election and how they are doing.

I believe a few polls would be a good thing, but way too many polls are being conducted from too many different sources."  (thanks to SR)
