Ya gotta love the left.

If you believed their take on smarts and politics, you would have to conclude there's an inverse relationship between intelligence and economic success.

Wait. Do you think because CNN wrote an article about the poll, that they were involved in the polling?

Guess what? CNN appears to have nothing to do with it. Direct Link to Poll

Just stop. Thinking that side of the media isn't affiliated with one another is ignorant.

Why do yall hate Trump so much? I didn't hear yall screaming when Obama was doing unconstitutional EO's literally in the middle of the night.

Democrats/Most Republicans problem is they are devoted to their party affiliation rather than facts. Example, if you believe Trump has Russian spies than Obama was born in Kenya.

Methodology for this poll . . . .

REGISTERED VOTERS
PARTY IDENTIFICATION
Republican 25% !
Democrat 34%
Independent 33%
Other/DK/NA 8%

Any newsoutlet publishing this garbage and representing it as even marginally accurate should fire any responsible elements of its production team and management.

Well I would expect better from you and wouldn't just default to such an absolute conclusion.

For example, here are the demographics from the exit polling election day.

Pew Voter Demographics

And here is the party affiliation breakdown:

---

Republican 31%
Democrat 34%
Independent 30%

So the Democrats in the Quinnipiac poll are consistent with that.

On the other hand, Republicans are -6% and Independents are +3%, but there are a couple things to consider.

1. Registered voter surveys tend to favor Democrats moreso than likely voter surveys and actually voting behavior. Of course, with no election in the horizon an RV survey is the only option. So we would expect that D +3 advantage to increase.

2. Party affiliation is fluid, and Republicans have appeared to become more likely to identify as Independents. Party Affiliation Trends

Not including leaners:


Including leaners:


But regardless of how one considers leaners and Independents, the Ds have had a +9 overall advantage.

3. The whole DK/NA category complicates it. Are those traditionally Republicans? Who knows.

In other words, the demographic breakdown is about as expected given the RV methodology and the overall party affiliation. The one complication is the DK/NA category.

Either way, it's ridiculous to default to the conclusion in your post.
