Hillary can’t fill a high school gym while Trump can’t find a venue large enough to hold his supporters.. You figure who’s lying.

When Bush defeated Kerry, the left said that fake voting was to blame because the votes did not align with exit polls. They of course ignored the fact that the left feels entitled to public abuse as inferior anyone not voting for their candidate - it seemed obvious that no one wanted to admit to exit polls that they voted for Bush.

So, if the vote goes to Clinton, then libs are fine with it and if the vote goes to Trump, then they will cite more accurate “exit polls” as “proof” yet again, that they wuz robbed.

Pollsters today are like the buggy whip makers in the early 1900’s, facing economic devastation because they can’t poll many people. They are in a losing battle with social media.

Many of the so called pollsters have been Democrat Operatives for decades going back to when they predicted Carter would beat Reagan.

Now, they are trying to compete with cell phones, social media and the problem of less landline phones.

More and more people on both ends of the age spectrum do not have landline phones. They only have cell phones.

Does anyone with a cell phone ever answer any unknown numbers and specifically any 800 #’s?
Probably not.

We use no more robocalls on our two land lines. Zero pollsters have gotten through since we started using no more robocalls, 2 plus years ago.

None of our voting age relatives have received a call from any pollster this election. That is 20+ Trump voters.

Then, there is this on social media versus polls:
Social Media Patterns Show Trump Is Looking at a Landslide Victory

Current polls show the race for President is much tighter than it really is. Ann Coulter warned us years ago in her bestseller Slander that Democrats and the liberal media always use polls to manipulate and discourage conservatives from voting. Thanks to social media there is more and more evidence that the polls are way off and if things stay as they are, Trump will win in a landslide!

It’s evident that, Hillary has a hard time filling a Union Hall or high school gym while Trump regularly turns people away from his stadium and arena venues.

A final question have you or any Trump voters, you know, actually been polled this year?

I know for certain that polling results show that Donald Trump
is finished here in August 2015.

The likely candidates will be Hillary Clinton and Jeb Bush.

Here is the money quote:

“Some polling organizations will move to sampling from voter lists, which will miss recently registered voters and campaigns’ efforts to mobilize them.”

So this is where the recent “likely voter” polls get there outdated information. They are missing a large chunk of Trump voters. But, of course, that’s ok...because it fits their narrative.

With all the media going after Trump... what makes anyone think their polls would be accurate if Trump was ahead. These aren’t romney polls. these are TRUMP polls. They’d report them in favor if Trump? not on your life!

Fox news spent 1 hour hating Trump this evening .. 5 minutes on hillary. They do not understand YET.. that they are insulting millions of voters who have more sense than any in Washington. If ya don’t think like they do, you’re an idiot. Idiocracy is that there are people who see nothing wrong with what all she has done and would vote for her .. Blows my mind that this country is THERE.

I think the most relevant point from that polling article is the following: if they're getting a response rate of less than 10% (compared to 80% traditionally in the olden days, their current polls are garbage, plain and simple. Nobody has any business claiming that they're reporting anything even remotely resembling an accurate gauge of public opinion. If they present such polls as accurate, they're engaging in deliberate fraud. Period. End of story.

As such, it's a fact that such polls are useful only as propaganda tolls, and not as an measure of public opinion. It's just obvious.

Couple that fact with the knowledge of a clear bias and overt advocacy for a specific candidate, and additionally the fact that virtually all other indicators seem to show great strength for Trump (voter enthusiasm, social media, rally sizes, yard signs, bumper stickers, etc., you name it) and I think it's fair to conclude that Trump has significantly more support than the Media & Establishment (but I repeat myself) are willing to admit.

One thing is certain: as furious as Americans are at this rigged system, they don't feel like answering polls, but they're going to show up in droves on November 8th and vote for Donald Trump for President. And almost equally certain is that those voting for Hillary will be unenthusiastic at best.

The evidence seems pretty clear to me that nobody should be letting themselves to become despondent or defeatist as a result of polls with such absurdly low response rates. Vote Trump!
