A shame. Republicans won't have the hilariously biased Gallup polls to give them false hope this time around. As a reminder, Gallup's final call in 2012 was Romney +1.
Gallup gives up the horse race
---
But after a bruising 2012 cycle, in which its polls were farther off than most of its competitors, Gallup told POLITICO it isn't planning any polls for the presidential primary horse race this cycle. And, even following an internal probe into what went wrong last time around, Gallup won't commit to tracking the general election next year.

Gallup will still be doing "issues" polling, but not candidates polling. That way, there's no solid election result to compare the polling results against, so Gallup can still suck completely and not get laughed at.
