If 4% of a total voting public claims it was queer...
No, 4% of the 13,130 respondants
13,130 is a bit more than 1/10,000 of the voters (104,000,000) which represents about half the population of the US.
You're trying to extrapolate a population percent based on a poll of voters on CNNs web site, which only tallied about 0.001% of the total possible voters. You are assuming that the poll was scientific, annonymous, and reached a significant statistical sample.
None of these facts hold up. For example, census data shows that African Americans make up 13% of the US population, but the CNN results show 10%of the respondants were black. A 2% difference equaling 4.1 million people. The results are also skewed toward college goers/graduates, which makes sense given that those people would be internet-savvy.
