ABCNews has a poll out that says Trump is down 17 in Wisconsin. Guess we should all just stay home and not vote.

In all seriousness who in their right mind believes this poll? I would bet everything I own that Trump doesn't lose Wisconsin by 17 - or even 9 if you subtract the margin of error from Biden and add it to Trump. LINK

ETA: Guess what Nate Silver rates this poll? A+. Shocking, I know. It single-handedly dropped Trump's winning percentage in WI from 11 to 6 in his forecast.

Did they leave out the decimal point in 1.7?

This is the very definition of a Bezos Washington Post suppression poll.

Polls like this are awesome because they show you how ludicrous polling can be.

Is it same polling organization that states 99% of scientist believe the world will come to a catastrophic end in 5 years due to man made climate change?

How old was that poll? I swear I have heard the same thing for 20 years now.

Is this the Ur-example of “two weeks behind Italy”?

Michigan is interesting too because when they switch from RV to LV Biden's lead increased by 2 even though voter enthusiasm is much higher for Trump than Biden so I would think the likely voter model would benefit Trump.

Marquette WI poll drops at 12:15PM central they are the gold standard in WI for what that’s worth (but had Hillary by 6 in their last poll of 2016).

These rags just say what they know their lunatic readers want to hear. Guess it's a safe business model.

Trump didn’t lose Oregon or even Washington by 17 in 2016, but yeah, he’s down 17 in Wisconsin.
