26. I think that's a fallacy
Since black voters for the bill certainly had an impact even if they arent' entirely to blame.

The choices force people into only two possibilities and if many people don't agree with either, they can be forced to pick an answer they sorta of but not really agree with. A partly wrong answer is still a wrong answer.

And having people simply not vote won't work either since all that accomplishes is to hide data.

either way you end up with a skewed result that doesn't really tell you anything.
