    Yes but it’s probably worth reading the fine prints of a poll before coming up to the conclusion that 100% - 85% of one answer means 15% of the polar opposite. Chances are that there is a non null share of “I do not know” or even they didn’t understand the question.

      Let me rephrase that, I meant the non-zero percent who believe that. But yeah, thanks for reminding me that poll percentages may have other interpretations. Whoops!
