Remember, polls only poll land lines, not cell phones. Who has land lines are the only ones getting polled.

The polling companies use various methods to compensate for the bias from polls that are mostly landline. Rasmussen uses online surveys, however Gallup has been polling cell phones since 2008. Regardless of the method used pollsters are smart enough to design a sample that will be representative of the population they are interested in and as much as possible free from bias, if they didn't what would be the value of polling.
