Political activists are quite familiar with 'push polls' in which a question is asked in such a way so as to 'push' a particular point of view. After pushing an answer, the pollster happily trots out the results to support the chosen narrative. But every once in awhile the public gets informed and the 'push' attempt backfires.
It is so blatantly obvious that the newspaper's question is designed to skew votes against Romere, (and doesn't even mention the issue at stake!) Shameless, but happily the people rejected the 'push' this time.
And the print media wonders why they have
lost the public trust.

University of Texas Journalism school probably has staffed this newspaper.
