As I understand it, Reagan was behind in the polls just before his election as well. Also, these days, MANY people DO NOT RESPOND accurately to pollsters. There is another factor: The polls now are known to be oversampling democrats in order to get Hillary’s numbers up there.
What I am trying to do is to take frequent deep breaths and do what it is in front of me to do to help get the patriot vote out there. I also do a LOT of praying!!
I certainly don’t respond to any pollcats and their trap questions. It’s the old, “So, do you still beat your wife?” deal. There is NO right answer.
Poo poo the polls at Trump’s peril.
“Also, these days, MANY people DO NOT RESPOND accurately to pollsters. There is another factor: The polls now are known to be oversampling democrats in order to get Hillary’s numbers up there.”
If there were evidence that people do not respond accurately to pollsters, it would have little impact on the accuracy of the poll as a person with Opinion A is just as likely to lie to a pollster as a person with Opinion B.
Pollsters do not “over sample” Democrats or Republicans as those answers are not linked to demographic census data.
If you want to see if a demographic group is over sampled, compare age, race, gender and income to the census data for the state being polled.
Not only was Reagan behind in the polls but it was clearly going to be the end of the world if he were elected. Haha how did that work out liberal idiots?
I posted this on another thread.
I for one refuse to answer political polls anymore.
It finally occurred to me that they can figure out who you are by the phone number they reach and all they have to do to find out how you are going vote is go back and trace it. They can claim all they want that the polls are anonymous, but I don’t trust them in the least.
So breathe easy.
BTW, there is a Trump prayer thread that's posted daily on the RF.
