Pollster alert: auto_alliance/@ESAGovAffairs owned by a Republican lobbyist

This pollster has been very active in Twitter lately, pretending to have found results very favorable to Donald Trump. The CEO is Mitch Bainwold. Here is his Bio:

After his studies, Bainwol became a member of staff for various Republican political figures from 1977 until 2003 (Robin Beard, Connie Mack, Bill Frist and the RNC) before founding the Bainwol Group, a Washington, D.C.-based lobby group. More specifically, he served as a Congressional staff intern to Robin Beard, an employee of the U.S. Office of Management and Budget, a Congressional Staff Chief to Senator Connie Mack, a Congressional Staff Senate Leadership Staff Director, a member of the Republican National Committee, a consultant for Clark and Weinstock, a Congressional Staff Executive Director for the National Republican Senate Committee, and a Congressional Staff Chief of Staff to Senator Frist.[2] In 2003 he joined the RIAA as its CEO, succeeding Hilary Rosen. He serves as a member of the Board of the National Fatherhood Initiative, the Leadership Music Foundation and the Bryce Harlow Foundation.[3]
