The trend lines are statistically meaningless considered the spread. Just about any trend line could be fitted with that type of spread. Either get rid of the trend lines or get rid of the plot altogether. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ysangkok (talkcontribs) 22:42, 3 July 2007

Well, I respectfully disagree. Trendlines are objective in that they take half the data and put it above the line and half the data and put it below the line. I'm not stating that these linear regressions are particularly tight, but the trendline does show an average result over time and a general trend/shift in opinion data from Republican candidates to Democratic candidates. --Robapalooza 03:10, 19 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
