BEND, OR -- Truth in Site is planning to release the results of its recent online survey on the OSU Cascades expansion this Thursday.

More than one thousand people responded to the poll, but critics say, it's not scientific.

John Horvick with DHM Research in Portland explains what qualifies as scientific: "If someone tells me a survey is open to everyone,  that's not scientific.  The sample needs to be randomized and representative of the community.  If you want to test if the same is good, you need to know the demographics of those who participate."

Truth in Site officials don't claim their survey is scientific, but they do claim its a valid reflection of public opinion on this issue.
