Looking at the poll data on cbs, I question the party breakdown, the education breakdown, and the gender breakdown. All of those numbers are biased toward democrats and their effect is cumulative.

I also have questions about establishing online respondent databases and then sampling those databases. My understanding is that people are contacted by email and asked to participate. Those who participate are self-selected. The original questions have to do with product purchases and other areas of Interest. Then at an election time that database of names has some selected to participate in the election poll. So we really don’t know why those particular persons are selected over others. That’s a real weakness in the online polling process as I see it. It could be random, but it also could be weighted, and we are not told.
