There is no evidence of *push polling* by Robert Lilligren.  Push polling is 
the practice 
of conveying negative information about an opponent by asking contrived 
questions in a  
manner suggestive of polling.

Wikipedia gives the example of the Bush campaign's alleged *poll* where they 
asked 
the question "Would you be more likely or less likely to vote for John McCain 
for 
president if you knew he had fathered an illegitimate black child?" during the 
2000 
campaign in South Carolina.
