Anecdotally, I would actually attribute it more to lying than shyness, though I've heard and seen examples of both. For myself, I dislike pollsters and mainstream media, so I will say that my vote is not information I share. For my friends and family, they'll blatantly lie in an (probably vein) attempt to throw off the numbers. There is a huge distrust of media in the US, and pollsters are seen as part of that. I do think there is some component to bias influencing the election and how polls can be either manipulated or withheld to manipulate that. Personally, I think we'd be better off politically without pollsters and less polarized without the media complex.
