Question 2.23

2.23 Text in your vote. During the television broadcast on the Big Ten Network of a 2010 basketball game at Ohio State between Ohio State and Penn State, the announcers asked the following question: “Which player has meant the most to his team this year: Talor Battle of Penn State, Evan Turner of Ohio State, or other?” Viewers were asked to text in their votes. Later in the program, the results were announced. Evan Turner received 72% of the vote; Talor Battle, 26%; and “other,” 2%. Explain why this opinion poll is almost certainly biased.
