re: What are the pollsters doing differently in 2020 that they didn't do in 2016?

Don't act like the pollsters were accurate in 2016.

That wasn’t a poll, it was a predictive model. I’m not acting like anything. I’m asking you specifically which polls you are referring to. Hillary won the popular vote by 2.1%. The RCP Average was 3.2%, so the polls were within the MOE of the result of the vote they were predicting. Predicting the actual Electoral College winner involves a much more complicated approach than an average of national polls.
