It would if the earth were a perfect sphere, but in reality, it's an oblate sphereoid. This means that an observer actually gets closer to the center of gravity as one approaches a pole.
Maybe. But everyone knows gravity pulls "down" and not "towards the center of the oblate spheroid" (nonsense word made up by """mathematicians""" to make us look like fools)
