The phrase "The only poll that counts..." is used by politicians to dismiss the importance of opinion polls and highlight the importance of polling day. It is particularly used as a response to questions about negative opinion poll results and is generally considered tongue-in-cheek or ironic. It is particularly well known as a feature of Australian politics where its inclusion in party-political briefings and instructions has caused controversy. The generally accepted continuation of the phrase is, ''"...is the one on election day"''. ==Context== In his book ''Polling and the Public: What Every Citizen Should Know'', Herb Asher provides an general explanation of the context in which the phrase is used. He suggests that the phrase has its origins in attempts by poorly performing politicians to discredit polling as an accurate reflection of their performance.〔(''Polling and the Public: What Every Citizen Should Know'' ) by Herb Asher (SAGE, 2011)〕 The phrase, he suggests, questions the accuracy of polling by drawing attention to historical, inaccurate polling.〔 Though popular in Australia, the phrase has also occasionally been used in the United States and the United Kingdom in general the same context, with The Guardian's Jonathan Freedland describing the phrase as an "oldie but goldie".〔(''This poll is bad news for Labour, however you spin it'' ) by Jonathan Freedland (The Guardian, 16 July 2013)〕 Author Helen Geracimos Chapin credits long-term Mayor of Honolulu, Frank Fasi, in particular, with use of the phrase.〔(''Shaping History: The Role of Newspapers in Hawai'i'' ) by Helen Geracimos Chapin (University of Hawaii Press, 1996)〕 Both Gerald Ford and Jimmy Carter used the phrase with regard to opinion polls - in 1976, Tom Brokaw asked Ford a question in which he suggested the President used the phrase "often"〔(''Public Papers of the Presidents of the United States'' ) - Gerald Ford (Government Printing Office, 1979)〕 and Carter used the phrase in response to a question at a 1980 press conference.〔(''Public Papers of the Presidents of the United States'' ) - Jimmy Carter (Government Printing Office, 1980)〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The only poll that counts...」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
