The key to predicting who is going to win an election is understanding who will vote – and that spells trouble for pollsters. The best predictor of voting intention is to ask the respondents if they intend to vote. The problem, however, is that real turnout has been around 55 percent for the last 55 years, while, historically, over 70 percent of survey respondents routinely say they intended to vote.
Yikes! So are 20 percent of respondents selected in random probability samples lying? Yes....

My aunt, who has voted a straight libtard ticket for 40+ years, told me today she was voting for Trump.
THAT more than anything else tells me the demon witch and her MSM flying monkeys are toast...
Trump voters will be voting, there is a huge enthusiasm gap.
We sure will be voting! The big question is there enough of us.
I can damn well tell you Trump voters are voting.
Listened to a local NeverTrump radio talk show host who has claimed he was voting write in for the last 4 mos said he is voting Trump. People are beginning to realize they have to make a choice.
Pray America wakes
And this voter told the phone pollster that my vote is for Clinton. As if...! Who ‘d self-identify on one’s phone these days?
I can't wait until Oct 24. Thats when early voting starts here in IL. I know we don't have much chance in IL but my wife and I will give Trump 2 votes.
Also I think a lot of votes are parked over with Johnson too. No way he gets 6-7%.
The third party types never do better than 2 or 3 percent. The exception was Perot and Anderson (remember him?) and they were brought in to help Rats. These spoilers are killing Hillary. I bet neither of them breaks 3%. The real Bernistas will go Trump in the end.
I’m voting early. I registered my mom who has never voted before in her life to vote. She got to register as a Democrat but she is voting for Trump. She never wanted to vote before but she LOVES Trump. I’m thinking about seeing if my late father is still on the active voter rolls. If he is, I will act accordingly...
50 to one in Michigan. Sad, tired hillary local post leader I presume. NO dem enthusiasm and some blacks get Trump and aren’t afraid.
No. Most people don’t accept the call in the first place!
I hope so... to counterbalance the double and triple votes for each Democrat... and for DEAD Democrats....
Exactly. For years now my standard response to “Hi this is xxxx from yyyyy research...” has been “Stop! I do not answer polls. Do not ever call me again.” {click}
My 35 year old nephew in FL has not voted for President since 2008 when disgusted with GW he voted for Obama. He is totally hyped for Trump.
In 2008, I awoke to find my beloved Izzy, suddenly and unexpectedly dying.
With a tear-swollen face and barely muffled sobs, I dragged myself to vote for that creep, *McCain*.
*Nothing* could stop me from going to vote for Trump, except my own death.
[in that case, I’ll probably be voting for Killary]
