You mean the pre-polls?  Ipsos(tm)?

Those numbers aren't always accurate. What they might do is
influence people to sway their votes. When a certain report
says Candidate A is leading, then people might be convinced to
either continue to vote that way, or vote to try and change
things and vote for Candidate B, C or D.

I don't participate when survey-people call.  Why do people
even bother?  What an intrusive activity.
