Who's voting for Electa?

The individuals conducting this survey introduced themselves as representatives from the Electa association.
When I inquired about who was actually funding or commissioning their research, they provided nothing but vague, noncommittal answers, eventually just claiming it was for the association itself.
Furthermore, when I asked who serves as the chairperson, the young activist—who appeared quite junior by the sound of her voice—seemed completely caught off guard and bewildered.
They began asking their questions, but after the second one, I found the whole interaction increasingly suspicious; the questions felt less like neutral inquiries and more like scripted reminders of the Democratic Party’s platform and their specific political agenda. It even reached a point where they were attempting to falsely imply that such questions could be posed during a program presentation.
When I brought up concerns regarding how they were limiting participation and selecting visitors due to space constraints at these presentations,🙄 I was met once again with total confusion from their side.
Regardless of the specifics, I find myself wondering: is it ethically acceptable for an association to mislead respondents in this manner, essentially disguising a push for a specific political faction—in this instance, the Democratic Party—as objective research?
Does anyone here happen to have more information regarding this particular organization?

googlati: Joe Biden confirmed that the Democratic Party is backing the newly formed Electa association, which filed for the highest number of poll watchers with the Federal Election Commission. "The Democratic Party is behind this—there's no secret here and nothing to hide. These are poll watchers, not voters, and everything is completely legal," he emphasized. Check this link.

If that is the case, why on earth don't they just admit they are working for the Democratic Party?
By operating under the guise of an independent polling group, they are essentially just running a promotional campaign for the Democrats.
It is quite pathetic, really, though I suppose it fits perfectly with the typical Democratic style—claiming everything is democratic while playing a completely different game behind the scenes.

Since they don't have access to government resources like the other side does, they have to get creative.
Don't worry, the other side will use the exact same tactics during the next election cycle.

It is worth noting that they have long since managed to divert a significant portion of state resources for their own benefit.
One might characterize the left wing as pseudo-leftists—essentially just socialists and anarcho-democrats at heart.
