I think it is more that you aren't really able to grasp what it is that multiple A-State posters have said about the poll and how it relates to the situation in Arkansas.
It is an important poll because of how different the results are from the line UA and the state's media puts out. UA fans would swear that our share of the state would be 1% or less. Many would believe that their share is about 99%. Many A-State fans would also believe that because that is what Razorback fans insist is true.
This poll, and Silver's estimate, are two actual data points that both agree that this is not true and that somewhere around 1 in 10 Arkansans identifies with A-State and that UA fandom may be a mile wide, but is about an inch deep.
If you can't understand why finally having some sort of actual data to counteract the BS party-line we endure, then I cannot help you understand because apparently you aren't capable of stepping into someone else's shoe's for a moment.
If frustration about your obtuseness comes off as being thin-skinned....well, I can't help you figure that out either.
You can question my intelligence all you want; I’m not the one that needs a poll to help ease my fragile psyche! Good night....
