    Penn Schoen Berland Poll and the Gallup Poll; as well as through their use of Ethos, Pathos, and Logos to justify and further advance their claim throughout the text. The authors’ use of Ethos was made effective by their use of the Penn Schoen Berland Poll and the Gallup Poll to compare and contrast the feelings of Americans across the nation; as well as their expression of both beliefs (Republican and Democratic values).

    to hold myself together. Without thinking out the amount of work polls would need, I voyaged on an experience that was difficult to balance. I believed that making an electronic poll would be a excellent way to involve the student bodies opinions into my layout.

    “Do away with the Electoral College” is the opinion poll that I decided to address for this discussion. From pollingreport.com, four polls were utilized to respond to this question, all in which, have differing statistics. One noticeable difference is the way the questions are stated, based on the organization conducting the survey.
