No, I'm just not ignoring the majority of data points that disagree with the reality a particular reality I hope to wish into existence with the power of belief.

In general you should discount low quality data points, potentially to zero, while prioritizing high quality data points — regardless of which each of them says.
As I said elsewhere, I think you are vastly overestimating the quality of polls as datapoints.

I'm fairly certain bias is playing a huge part in your motivation to do so, whether you are aware of it or not.
