Polls really missed the mark

Was it a scam just to get them out to the polls?

It’s just their inability to deal with reality. It’s the nature of their being. That is why they are the party of transgenderism. People who can’t deal with reality.

Homey D Clown was the best.

Back when blacks could make fun of themselves and white people and everyone else and no one was butthurt by it.

If you want accuracy, you need access to the campaigns' internal polling numbers, because they have to be brutally accurate to drive strategy. Polls the media conduct are used to create and push a narrative, not reflect the actual state of the race.

Margin of error 3 points!?

Perhaps people were too embarrassed to admit they were voting for the orange buffoon.

Polls becoming like media
Not reporting facts but rather political agendas

I lied to a Dem pollster. I told him that I hadn't made up my mind yet.

I told them twice I liked Kamala.....

No chance it's NYB?

It looks more like 15 points to me. You'd get better results throwing darts at a board.

Any idea how these (so called) scientific polls were so far off?

They sell a product and tailor it to the buyer.

Who answers their phone anymore when a strange number comes up?

I get these calls from the Chiefs of Police association and a related fire association. PIA. So I answer and make up a foreign languge every time. Big pause, it's driven by a program, then they apologize and remove me from their call list.....takes a couple calls then it stops.

The margin or error has always been a crock of shit. You poll a thousand people out of 150 million, get your results, and then claim that if you extrapolate your poll out to those 150 million that your poll results might be off by 3% from your original 1000 people.

However, polls are very useful in determining trends.

I just block all the calls from numbers I don't know if they don't leave a message or do leave a message and it is spam. We have directv and they seem to have a bottomless pit of telephone numbers to call you from.

Two snaps in a circle!

I love the ones who want to buy my house....... I tell them such an inflated price.......they don't call back.

That's how I view them. If you ask the same questions over a period of time you can fairly accurately identify trends. A single snapshot in time isn't really that useful.
