That fallacy of almost all pollsters... there are more democrats so we count more democrats...

And, why don't you go to your twitter page and search #neverhillary and see that the opposition still exists? Twitter is more reliable than your polls.

Of course the poll is skewed!
Ask 60 democrats if you support Hillary they say yes! Ask 40 GOP they may say YES.
Overall 60% of those asked favor Hillary..! Pretty damn skewed if you ask me!

What would you say if they numbers would be reversed? I am honest enough to say let's ask 50 Democrats and 50 GOP.
Are you and the pollster afraid to have a level playing field!

Only a junior high drop-out would state the above.....Heck, why don't you have FOX poll trump's family members and staff.......Bet you'd like those results even more.

So you are defying logic here because not having equal number of Democrats,GOP and Independents is like this example.

Ever hear of "gerrymandering"? It is a classic method of stacking a congressional/state/local with a majority of same minded people!
Now if pollster were to call people in Florida district 5 do you think the poll would be fair?
Of course not because you are aware as the graph shows, there are almost 3 times Democrats then GOP.
So why don't the pollsters contact District 5 and then you'd have Hillary by 70 percent over Trump.
For example...

Calling people in Florida District 5 would be appropriate for an election in that district

However, your example does not even approximate random sampling and polls do not gerrymander

What?

When anyone looks closer at usually the very last page of the poll showing how many people voted and their party identification.
Now the following article without proof made this statement:

The fact is there just are more Democrats out there than Republicans,
and this has largely been the case at least since the New Deal.

And by the way... THIS IS TRUE!!!

But the article goes on to PROVE that it is a 6% advantage and again their justification was their
above statement. BUT IS THAT TRUE???
HuffPollster, which aggregates hundreds of polls across nearly 100 different pollsters, finds that averaging across 2016 polls, 34.8 percent of Americans identify as Democrats and 28.7 percent identify as Republicans—roughly a six-point Democratic advantage. This is very similar to the CBS poll’s partisan composition. Democrats maintain this advantage even among the national electorate. HuffPollster finds on average that among likely voters 38 percent are Democrats and 32.9 percent are Republicans—a 5.1-point Democratic advantage.
No, The Polls Aren’t Biased. Clinton Really Is Leading Trump

Gallup says differently.
Gallup says 29% called themselves Democrats...versus GOP which is 26%
3% difference...not the SIX POINTS that the above article states.

Democratic, Republican Identification Near Historical Lows

The point is the pollsters are automatically counting at least 3% more Democrats then
the reality i.e. that there are 3% more Democrats then GOP.

This is why most people who understands the bias of polling and especially how people "REALLY"
feel when they get behind the voting booth curtain... say GREAT! I'm in favor of showing Trump behind
because as it was with Truman, BREXIT and most events where the public really wants something that
the MSM and idiots think they shouldn't THEY prove the pollsters/pundits WRONG!!!

There is more than one problemo with the use of polls as accurate.

Random sampling was done by The 1936 Literary Digest Poll. Of course you never heard of it.
In retrospect, the polling techniques employed by the magazine were to blame. Although it had polled ten million individuals (of whom about 2.4 million responded, an astronomical total for any opinion poll),[5] it had surveyed its own readers first, a group with disposable incomes well above the national average of the time, shown in part by their ability still to afford a magazine subscription during the depths of the Great Depression, and then two other readily available lists: that of registered automobile owners and that of telephone users, both of which were also wealthier than the average American at the time.
And so too do current pollsters are making the same mistake. For example they are now call cell phones? Of course you can't figure out
why they didn't but the bias is now inherent ... millennials have cells, no more land lines. Problem... Most millennials that answer the cell will
choose Trump....but here is the real catch. Will they show up to vote? On the other hand older people are supporting Trump AND they do have the time for turnout and the citizenship. Trump is aiming for the VAST majority of people who believe like him!

What a truly moronic retort.....hey, dummy, a POLL is based on random (look that word up since you can't understand what it means) sampling.....Besides,..want to guess how this district in Texas will vote this Nov???
