Whether whites supported Barack Obama or not, they don t seem to have lied to pollsters about it.Obama s election triumph on Tuesday presented no evidence of the so-called Bradley effect, in which whites who oppose a black politician mislead pollsters about whom th stanley website ey will vote for. Instead, national and state pre-election polls were generally accurate in reflecting voters preferences in the presidential stanley cups uk contest. I certainly hope this drives a stake through the heart of that demon, Charles Franklin, a University of Wisconsin political scientist and polling authority, said of the Bradley effect. The phenomenon is named after former Los Angeles Mayor Tom Bradley, an African-American who in 1982 lost the race for California governor after leading in the polls. There were similar contests over the following decade in which black candidates facing white opponents had comfortable leads in polls, only to lose or narrowly win the elections.Critics have said such turnabouts might have been largely the product of poor polling. Others have concluded that some whites, nervous about appearing to harbor anti-black feelings, in fact misled pollsters up through the early 1990s but that such behavior has faded over time.
