IF someone had walked to me and said, "Yeah, in Texas they're going for Camala big-time" I would have instantly called them a liar. Without even counting a vote. Something we can agree on, finally! I mean if an average computer jockey hammering away endlessly on a shit-bag bulletin board "would have instantly called them a liar," then Trump ain't all that swift. You are the "reasonable person" the law refers to, although it pains me to type that out. LOL! Trump's interpretation wasn't "reasonable." Are we done with this nonsense yet? Geezus...I'm gonna leave you to Lane3. Just to make sure I do, kindly refrain from the minutiae of the law. I just can't sit idly by when you do that, anymore than I can abide by a dumbass, self-promoting, pitifully insecure poster who claims to be an engineer but has no idea how a car works or how to fix one. :)

But when the lie causes the campaign to waste valuable resources, why not? Everything you say in a campaign that is mistaken or deceptive or true but just not favorable to you causes the opposite campaign to waste resources. Everything. It is interesting she walked away from her career immediately after the numbers came out. Not interesting at all that she was embarrassed. As for misrepresenting, he polls have often been out of sync, quirky. Often she was right. No surprise that this one would be an oddball. I haven't been paying attention but is there evidence that the numbers were fudged or was it just that the analysis was wrong? And who in the world would think that a contrary poll, regardless of how assembled, would be a strategy to win an election? If I were running for something, I would not put publishing bogus polls in my favor on my todo list for winning. An oddball poll is just noise in the contest if it's above the radar at all.
