The Bradley Effect theory could have a possible influence on the 2008 election. The Bradley Effect is believed to contribute to an inaccurate polling system. Some voters fear saying they would chose a white candidate over a non-white candidate which can lead to the discrepancy in the polls. Although many believe that by this day in age the Bradley theory is no longer an issue, there is still a possibility that the polls taken prior to the presidential election will not accurately portray the outcome. The polls are currently favoring Obama but if the Bradley Effect has any influence on voters it could possibly be a false lead. Even though Obama appears to have a lead, when citizens are polled they do not always give a truthful response, which can cause the polls to differ from the actual election results.
