They are deliberately over-sampling Democrats. They are no longer releasing their internal sample weighting of R vs D vs I but past samples indicate at least 5-8 points over on D's! Any results need to add 10-16 points to Tump difference!!

Ryan is vicious "passive aggressive" SWAMP ANIMAL and directing from his seat on Fox Board....note they cut Newt at the knees re Soros influence!!

So waiting for the alternative to emerge....OAN is good but not on my service...

Here is a hint...

It is not working on this Trump voter.

I feel like you could argue the exact opposite

Keeping Trump's numbers down will further motivate his base to ensure they get out and vote

All polls deliberately over-sample Democrats because there are more registered Democrats than Republicans. It captures the true demographics. It’s not some trick being used by Fox.

Won't ever happen...the more they (media) come out with polls "in favor of Bunglin' Joe" the more they show up.

I think there are two general divisions of people - those who in the face of adversity lay down and roll over and hope for mercy and those who will adhere to their beliefs and allow adversity to galvanize them and steel their resolve.

I also think those descriptions can be fairly well applied to the two primary points on the voting spectrum.

I believe this was evidenced by the 2016 election, and it seems to be shaping up that way again in 2020.

Trump base does not pay attention to FoxNews anymore. I list more to known conservative social media outfits now.

All of the media outlets are reporting a big lead for Biden so it won't look fishy when they "count" all of the mail-in ballots and discover that Joe barely won. It is a bold conspiracy that has been planned for 4 years. First the China Virus to create the argument that its not safe to vote in person. Then the executive orders by Dem governors to allow unfettered mail-in voting. It could work unless Trump has a plan to mitigate.

The polls are being inflated to show Biden with a large lead so when Trump wins on election night it will support two claims.

First will be Republican election fraud. Proof will be how the results don't match the polls.

Second will be the claim that all the votes have clearly not been counted. That's when millions of ballots will be found with the lament " oh we have to count these votes also". Dem lawyers will have temporary restraining orders in place to prevent certification of the results until "every vote is counted".

Tie it up in the courts to either flip the results or at the very least cripple the Trump second term. All the crap we have seen playing out in the streets is a dress reherasal for the civil unrest we will see against the fascist Trump regime.

It will be interesting to see how far the Dems are really prepared to go. If they fail they will have to contend with "don't give a f*** Donny". It's one thing to sit around in their little conferences with like minded people and plan for their little Socialist paradise. It may be another thing to be looking at the arse end of a federal prison sentence.

May you live in interesting times.

I know it's weird.

Just as weird as the poster who posts Trump and Biden tweets all day.

I suspect there is another reason for trying to skew the polls to Biden and the Dems.

1) Yes they are trying to move the needle and over sample Dems and influence some fence riders to go Dem or Biden

2) If/when DJT wins, the Dems/Media can point to the polls and say that DJT cheated, "Something is not right about the election results", etc etc.

This will be used to delegitimize the President and election, will give reason for Antifa, BLM, and whacko Dems to go riot and loot and try to over rule the election.
