When a campaign takes place, especially for elections, researchers, and pollers, seek to help the public to make the better choice by finding out who is leading the intention of vote in voters. By doing this, polls may allow the public to know who has a chance of being elected, and thus sway support from the public to one, or another of those candidates. The media, of course, will focus their interviewing efforts on those who stand a chance of being elected. Which is why the answer is the one above.
