This is empirical because it uses data from 1200 adults in two different areas. Though it might be subjective because not everyone tells the truth about cheating at anything

Totally subjective. Fighter gambling stats are based partially on numbers, and mostly on what will make UFC the most money. If the stats were legitimate, which they're not, then it would be axiomatic (assuming they just use the discrete values of wins to losses)

The data is empirical, although the validity of the claims may not be that soild. They took the latest poll results for each state and translated them into probabilities.

This was rather interesting because, although there is sampling bias, it doesn't really matter. The sample space is android devices that visit the android market. Here, the sampling bias means only devices that would use the android market are polled--which overlaps very well with the developer's target audience of people who might download their app.
