Mr. Naymik did not see the questions or the results.<br /><br />My experience with Triad Research and R Stategy Group in regard to the CH-UH school district's Issue 81 is that they conduct "push" polls as a means to influence results, and to devise campaign strategies.<br /><br />Mr. Naymik turned his entire column over to a paid campaign professional. He completely failed in his role as "Tax Dollar Watchdog".Garryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17223144875087234059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2956537955994443361.post-62511587200979730402014-01-31T16:07:57.498-05:002014-01-31T16:07:57.498-05:00Municipalities providing funding for sports teams ...Municipalities providing funding for sports teams need to be paid a percentage of profits as an investor.
