I can't say the results of the study surprise me much because voters are generally uniformed about political issues, but the level of misinformation is concerning. There is a difference between not knowing an answer and believing a wrong answer to be true.

The very first thing you learn when you take a research class is that people HATE saying "I don't know."
You could make up a question that his completly fictional like
"Did Alexander the Great say his favorite color was Red or Blue" and a great number of people will say either Red or Blue, even though such an event never occured.

Are you assuming that there is no "correct" answer in these questions asked? And to your wired article, it says that they could be remnants of the gulf war, so that isn't good proof at all of WMDs found.
"But chemical weapons, especially, did not vanish from the Iraqi battlefield. Remnants of Saddam’s toxic arsenal, largely destroyed after the Gulf War, remained."
Does that justify the invasion of Iraq to you?
