Correct. It was not faulty polling. It was pure dishonesty, far and wide. They thought that if we were told often enough that Hillary would be POTUS, it would come true due to Trump voters staying home.
So the pollsters know Minnesota is a difficult state to poll AND the polls were days old AND the polls were inferior.
They allegedly knew this and still reported the polls presuming they were accurate?
This article is a big CYA.
Tell them you are a trans gender with recurring herpes that supports Trump.
Hell No !
Mistakes were made... corrections have been made... honest mistakes...yada yada yada...coincidinks... move along...
That is the best way to get an honest outcome.
No data models, no special sauce, no leading questions.
Just one thousand people, chosen at random across the state are you a registered voter and who are you voting for.
No shit
no obligations to note their lack of confidence when releasing polls? /s
How about going out and talking to people. What miss. DC cocktail party? No way!!!!
national polls were not accurate either they had whats-her-face winning by ten points.
California is the only reason she had more popular vote anyway.
They knew the polls were worthless but still reported them (presumably as accurate).
If true, people should have been fired for this.
With spin like that, who needs an amusement park?
Lol! These clowns always have an excuse to cover up that they were ones “ colluding” to fix an election.
Beat me to it! I even change my voice to a more “urban” accent!!!
“Faulty polling led to inaccurate 2016 data models”
that’s good to know ... i’d hate to think that non-faulty polling could lead to inaccurate 2016 data models ...
Inaccurate due to flat out lying, he means.
Psycho-social manipulation via pseudo-demographics.
Lie hard and steady enough, and the public will fall into line.
There was no accident in what was done.
As has already been pointed out on this thread, using nationwide polling data that only predicts the nationwide popular vote is useless as the outcome of a Presidential election depends on the results of the Electoral College selection. But, the media, the politicians, and most Democrat voters were convinced by this wrong headed approach that Hillary would win. They were wrong.
The blue wave predictions have been based on these same sort of polls. As local and state wide polls are starting to show up, these raw results are being influenced by the earlier blue wave polls. This is circular logic, but it makes the media orgasmic. The coup d’état crowd must be really excited.
Amen. They have to get the states right to matter.
