So far you're the only person who believes that polling results could have an "undue influence" on voters. Did I miss the post where you had data to support that assertion?
I think you're trying to create a solution to a problem that doesn't exist.
And even if it did exist, who are you to decide whether anyone casts their votes "for the right reasons" or not?
Maybe we should ban political panels on TV. They too may have an undue influence on election results. Hell, let's ban all forms of election advertising - it exists solely to influence voters.
