It is a *VERY* weak argument, verging on desperation, to claim everyone who took the poll not only understood that the question meant this or that when it was not mentioned at all, but that they went ahead and answered based on that purported understanding. Poll questions ask what they ask, not what you imagine those polled mentally added to the questions.
