Is your problem with the word “important”, Happy? Please feel free to substitute one of these other words, then: relevant, meaningful, significant, of note, salient, signaling, standout.
Then perhaps you’d care to share *why *you think these were the most important polls of the ones posted in the link. Obviously you thought the story was meaningful enough to post it, and then highlight those two polls. What made those two polls more important/meaningful/significant/of note/salient/signaling/standout than the others, in your opinion?
They show the opinions of people who are likely to vote in the SC primary, of course. They are a gauge of how effectively each candidate is able to get across their message to the people of SC. I’d be very surprised if the results from the primary didn’t have the same order as those two polls, even tho the polls don’t give us any insight into the percentage of votes that each candidate will receive.
