People who have already voted twice for their GA Jimmuh and once for Mr. Bill, are certainly capable of gping with Mrs. Bill this time. If they do, she will win 40-plus states.

They sampled more Dems because of GA’s history.

The fellows in the Pacific theater listened to Tokyo Rose because she played all the latest hit records for them. As for her "commentary", they all knew that it was disinformation meant to demoralize. Ergo, it didn't.

BIG difference between the more disciplined mindset of the typical World War II fighting man, and the easily frightened, easily confused listeners of today.

Same here.

You'll guarantee that? And if you say "sure", what happens if you're wrong?

When it comes to polls, the best policy is TRUST NO ONE.

We need to be aware of it and point out exactly the things you were pointing out. Anything not countered, becomes the accepted “truth".

You mean, like, free discourse?

Even if the above were true, which it isnt, this is not the way to win friends and influence people.

>>The purpose of all this is to discourage Trump voters from voting, to make them think that it’s already all over, Hillary will win and there is no point in bothering to vote.

Yes. That is the #2 reason, though. The #1 reason is so that when the Dems falsify the election results to show Hitlery won, that they will be able to point to the falsified poll results. It would hardly do to have polls showing Trump winning by a landslide and the Democrats having to explain that away after rigging the voting.

Discouraging Trump voters who don’t vote just makes the rigged election easier to explain.

Not believing it, not possible. Same kind of techno- reasoning that gives us global warming. The question is, who is doing the sampling of these tiny polls, not what methodology is used. It is who counts the stats and who asks the questions from which the stats are accumulated.

I hope the DEMS and the media actually believe this. NO way in the world does Hillary win in Georgia. The AJC is a well-known biased joke in Atlanta.

It’s simply math or more exactly, statistics.

The sample size of 847 is not a small sample and has a margin of error of 3.37%. If you were to increase the sample size to 5000 your margin of error would be 1.39%. Both would give you a confidence level of 95%.

I’m not saying this poll is spot on, but the numbers tell me that Trump is not leading Georgia by 10%. My guess is that the state of the race in Georgia will settle to 2% for one candidate or the other.

Also keep in mind that Georgia has a population of ten million and more than half of them live in the Atlanta area or in Athens.

Again, it is just statistics and statistics have no emotion.

I’m hoping for a Trump rebound. A lot of voters do not want Clinton. They require persuasion to convince them to vote, and to choose Trump instead of a wasted third party.
