Polls do not need to be accurate until 3-5 days before the election

There is no legal controlling authority in conducting polls about any subject.
If a poll is completely wrong, absolutely nothing happens to the group that conducts or finances the poll. Perhaps their reputation takes a hit, but that hit doesn't count for much.
Even the pollsters that were so very wrong in 2016 are still in business and still used as "newsworthy" when they publish their polls.
Here is the game they play:
1-Pollsters can publish any poll with any result that they want.
2-They really don't need to be accurate to the real possible outcome until maybe 3-5 days out. This is done to "save" their reputation. And even then, it doesn't really matter.
3-Polls are used for propaganda to push a narrative and make it seem legitimate. The complicit media (most of whom are doing the polling) play along. Most of us here know this. But, that does not include the general public. And the pollsters/media know it.
Bottom line:
Don't put ANY value into any poll about the election until maybe 3-5 days out. And even then, they still may be playing propaganda games.

People are just trying to convince themselves it will be okay. This has been a disaster for Trump and now he has lost republican leaning polls this should send off warning signals. 2016 Rasmussan and Traflugar were the best for Trump and now they are showing a landslide. No positive way to spin it unless you are delusional.

Yep, there is only one poll all election that is falsifiable.

Again, the Trafalgar poll looks good for Trump.

Landslide?
Every swing state has Trump within striking distance.
There are no undecided voters left, yet the polls keep changing
Figure that one out

I think you have mistaken millions of illegals in California and New York for votes that will decide the election
No one cares if Biden wins 50 million illegal votes in those states

...and the OPPOSITE of suppression
this year already.
A base of seemingly honest polls that attempt to be AVERSE to the manipulation games being played by the media and the DNC.
Those are: Zogby, Trafalgar, and Democracy Initiative. Interestingly they also are showing approximately the same results that are diametrically opposed to the DNC MSM POLLING CABAL.
I mean, dont tell me you would be surprised to learn that the MSM would be dishonest about President Trump which they have done continually for years.
One more thing and it is ominous. IF it is discovered that these polls are a part to assist a voting fraud scheme...

Are you a troll or are you legitimately the biggest puzzy to ever walk the face of the Earth?
Serious question....
Not kidding, you are one insufferable b!tch.

Just don’t trust polls. There is no way of knowing if those being polled are being truthful. People play games for any number of reasons.

Current polls are not accurate.

Rasummen polls from October 2016. Trump NEVER trailed by this much. Max 3-4 points.

Oh wow someone who gets it. Welcome friend. Have fun wading through the retards on this board.
While there are many a retard in these here threads, I caution you to the worst retard of them all. I call him this NEWSER. He's an effeminate loser whose emotions ebb and flow to every single news story that comes out no matter how small. They will emote post like a woman on her period on these boards adding nothing of value.
The SMU Magician2 guy is a good example as of right now, though I do not know his posting history so it might be a new development.

Do you really want me to get the RCP records showing Rasmussen tracked correctly throughout October of 2016?
Jesus fricking Christ, it is right there where I posted the link in your other thread.
Rasmussen is "more favorable" because it is actually closer to correct as shown by past experience.

Yes. Rasmussen never had trump trailing fricking 12 points in October. It was aroun 2-5 at most.

Keep it up, alter boy, you're almost at a whopping 500 posts!!!
BTW:
Why do you support a confirmed racist, liar, thief and pedophile who has spent 47 years in government stealing from the taxpayers and sexually assaulting women?
Why do you support a man who was part of an Administration whose spying tactics make Watergate look like a joke?
Why do you support a scumbag family who used Daddy's influence to make millions off of illicit dealings with foreign governments?
Why do you support a man whose shitty son was kicked out of the military for drug use?
How do you sleep at night?...

oogabooga68, you 3 teethed fricking hillbilly, I'm a Trump voter. I will be voting Trump in 2020.
It's funny that people who use "total posts" as a gauge of some significance will turn around and say well "Biden has been in politics for 47 years, so that's bad." oogabooga68 won't get that, but some will.
