WHAT’S WORSE, THE SUPPORT IS FOR THE FICTITIOUS “DON’T SAY GAY” BILL THE DEMS HAVE BEEN ATTACKING AND THE PRESS HAS BEEN LYING ABOUT, NOT THE MUCH MILDER ACTUAL BILL: Sorry, ABC: Politico/Morning Consult poll shows majority support for Florida sex-ed limits. “That’s no narrow window either, but instead a 51/35 support level for restricting discussions of sexual orientation and gender identity below the fourth-grade level.”

Plus: “In both instances, support was considerably higher among Republican registered voters, but there was also backing from independent voters. Seventy percent of GOP voters, for example, supported banning the teaching of sexual orientation and gender identity in lower grades compared to 51 percent of Democrats who opposed the legislation. The poll found that 46 percent of independent voters supported the ban compared to 35 percent who opposed it. . . . Outside of explicitly Democrat/progressive categories (and Gen-Z), there’s no significant opposition to this bill. It’s the opponents speaking from the political fringe that want teachers to ply gender gender theory and orientation issues into elementary-school sex ed, especially when it comes to kids under the age of 10.”

And: “So what happened in that ABC-Ipsos poll this week? That one supposedly showed Americans in widespread opposition to the Florida legislation, but it smelled bad from the start. ABC and Ipsos acknowledged that they had oversampled LGBTQ respondents in a 622-person sample, a very strange outcome for a supposedly scientific poll of randomly surveyed Americans (not registered voters). As I suggested on Monday, this looks like a cooked sample that intended to deliver an editorial narrative rather than tell the truth. . . . So when do we get an explanation from ABC-Ipsos about their true methodology and the conditions under which they conducted the earlier poll?”
