Question

In August 2006, a report was issued about an Internet poll conducted on behalf of the Oxygen Television Network. The survey included 1400 women and 700 men, aged 15 to 49. The following is part of a press release about the findings.

"Apparently if it's a gadget, women gotta have it, according to a survey done by Oxygen Media, an American cable network owned and operated by women. The Women's Watch: Girls Gone Wired survey released in August indicates that 77 per cent of women fancy a new plasma TV over a diamond solitaire necklace, 78 per cent would rather have a sleek new cell phone than shoes, and 86 per cent would prefer a new digital video camera over designer footwear."
What can be said about these poll results?

Answer 1

Results of the Assembly elections in five States are indeed a shot in the arm for the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), which won in all four States where it was in power. The Hindu editorial captures the broad trends that emerge out of these results. Prime Minister Narendra Modi has said these results have sealed the outcome of the 2024 Lok Sabha elections too in the BJP’s favour. He said people have rejected caste and dynastic politics.
