The type of polls that a candidate can use in order to mislead voters is push polls. In this way, the campaign manipulates voters in order to change the prospective, thereby influencing the formation of the beliefs of future voters, under the mask of public opinion. In a push poll, a large number of voters are contacted, making little effort to collect and analyze voters' response data. Instead, there is a propaganda based on telemarketing and spreading rumors, conceived as a public opinion poll. Such polls are generally considered negative polls. The interviewer aska suggestive questions, which "push" the respondents to adopt a negative response to the political candidate.

Margaret [11]

Both C and D answers show uncorrect statements about the 2010 Haiti earthquake.

Answer C states that the quake registered at 7.8 on the Richter scale, but that's not true. The earthquake occurred inland on January 12, 2010, approximately 15 km southwest of Port-au-Prince and at a depth of 10 km at 16:53 local time. It recorded 7.0 on the Richter scale.

The bodies recovered on January 25 exceeded 150,000, calculating that the death toll would exceed 200,000. The final data of those affected were released by Prime Minister Jean-Max Bellerive on the first anniversary of the earthquake, the January 12, 2011, stating that 316,000 people died in the earthquake, 350,000 more were injured, and more than 1.5 million people were left homeless.

a shrinking population is beneficial in terms of job employment. lesser people-> lesser competition for jobs-> more people earning money for the country-> country spends lesser on helping those without jobs/financially unstable.
