The dearth of polls at this point in the cycle is unusual.

Usually there are polls galore on the chattering channels, especially if the Rats are broadly tied or ahead. Even Cwissy Tingles, who puts up only selected pro-Rat polls on his Scoreboard, has had next to nothing.

It appears they’re trying to keep a lid on really bad numbers ‘til they absolutely have to put something up.

There is no dearth of polls. Polls are aplenty. The dearth is in relation to writing about them. Called suppressing or burying.
