A simple reason in for the increase of polls is its cheap availability and use of social media, both of these factors when interconnected can make it really easy for anyone with the right approach to create a poll. Those people who are in the policy making business also use the medium to get the latest of public opinions about certain issues which may help them create a relevant policy.

There is just one danger as I see it, that when it comes to politics the politicians focus more on getting votes by spreading and creating biased polls which help mold the public opinion to a certain extent.

A(n) _____________is an attorney, nonprofit organization, or private law firm that contracts to provide legal services to indige
svlad2 [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is A(n) <u>contractor</u> is an attorney, nonprofit organization, or private law firm that contracts to provide legal services to indigent defendants for a specific fee, while a(n) <u>public defender</u> is a court-appointed private attorney representing indigent defendants.

Explanation:

The Sixth Ammendment to the Constitution states that any person that has been charged with a crime has the right to counsel. Nevertheless, many people can't afford to pay for an attorney. In 1930, the Supreme Court extended the right to an attorney when people couldn't afford one in federal criminal cases; by 1960 it extended to state cases too.

The term contractors refers to the attorney, law firm,  associated attorneys or firms, or organization (nonprofit or for-profit) that provides representation to indigent persons under contract (Contract Attorney System).

The Public Defender System allows for public defenders to work independently. Within this program, Public Defenders are appointed by court to cases.
