    “Median Strategies was created as a short-term social experiment examining how purported polling information could enter and spread through the political information ecosystem without independent verification.”

      Yeah, that’s what they’re saying, but I suggest against taking the words of organizations that just got done lying to all of us at face value

      Given that they gave inflated polling results to a centrist in one race and to a socialist in a different one, I am currently going with betting site manipulation, but we need the names of the people involved with this and all of their communications and records to get dumped before we’ll have a chance at knowing anything for sure (well, I know for sure these people can go fuck themselves, but other than that)
