And the Polls will show that Biden will win, just like with Hillary, the night before the election. Whoopee.

Republicans are drastically underrepresented in polls, IMO. Think about it. Right now, given everything that is happening to Trump supporters, would you tell a random person over the phone claiming to be a pollster that you plan on voting for Trump?

So you want more lawlessness, chaos, higher taxes, etc. with a democrat as president? What kind of dumbass wishes that on anybody? The rioters and protesters will be even more emboldened to do their thing if Biden wins. People like you can't see past the end of their nose just for the sake of politics. You are why we are at the point we are in this divided country.

When Trump wins these polls we be used to bolster the claim of voter suppression. Mark my words.

Do you liberals really believe Biden has a chance against Trump?

One of the factors in the absurd skewing of the loony polls is that many people won't tell some stranger on the phone their true intentions. With all of the trouble going on, the threats and the MSM's shaming of all things Trump, this should be no surprise.

The LaTimes/USC poll had it dead on in 2016. One thing they did was to ask the pool of poll participants who they thought their neighbor was going to vote for. That's kind of like saying "I'm asking for a friend." It worked.

If Biden wins, this country is truly lost.

Period.

The 2016 polls were off by way more than 3 points in '16. To pick a few states that were 3% and act like that was the norm is intentionally misleading.

FWIW, the only poll that got it right was a poll jointly done by The L.A. Times and UCLA.

If Johnson isn't running, then those voters who aren't hardcore libertarians will vote one of two ways:

1. Trump
2. Not vote at all.

Neither helps Biden.

I’m assuming he’s talking about the polls right before the election


Polls this far out are bullshite there’s no accountability so they can just make shite up. Right before the election they have to be pretty close

nate silver is an idiot, he thinks that he can look multiple polls and make predictions based on those polls. it's literally like licking your finger and putting it in the wind. understand he's not a pollster, he's an odd's maker.

he got it right in 2008 and 2012, anyone could have predicted those outcomes, he got it so wrong in 2016 that he left politics and went back to sports.

his final prediction for 2016 was clinton with an 81% chance of winning with 329 electoral votes to 209 for trump literally the opposite of what happened.

all polls right now are being over weighted democrats, blacks and women.
