Media Polls [Don't you believe 'em!]
The Conservative Treehouse ^ | October 18, 2016 | sundance

Posted on 10/19/2016 7:12:12 AM PDT by Rockitz

The Example: The Michigan Democrat Primary was held on March 8th 2016.

WikiLeaks most recent releases show in the last week of February and first week of March 2016 the U.S. Media was doing all they could to aid the Clinton Campaign. -It’s all out in the open now- Talking points were distributed by the campaign and pushed heavily by the pro-Clinton media water-carriers, including media polling organizations….

◾Monmouth (Patrick Murray) Poll March 7th had Clinton up by 13 points.

◾ARG Poll March 6th had Clinton up by 24 points.

◾Fox Poll March 7th had Clinton up by 27 points.

AT THE BALLOT BOX: Bernie Sanders won by 1.5 points!!!

At some point soon the polls have to reflect reality if the pollsters want to have any future credibility.

And don’t be too sure about a Trump landslide. Not all the polls are cooked. It will come down to the better GOTV effort.

The Brexit analogy is doubtful. Prior to the vote the polls were all over the place. In some Leave was up 5 to 8 points, but innothers Stay was up equally as much. Only the betting lines were uniformly Stay, and that was because betting is prediction, not polling which is a picture at a particular time. The betting was based on past trends like predicting the Dow.Hopefully the betting lines here are as wrong as Brexit, but except for the LA Times the polls show Trump trailing. And if that is the result of Progressive conspiracy then there isnt and never was any hope for anyone to defeat Clinton

I think Chris Wallace will be tough on both of them and he won’t let Hillary get away with avoiding answering tough questions. I think Trump hits a grand slam tonight.

They didn’t seem to worry about that in the Michigan Democratic Primary polling. When your candidate is so far behind, reality be damned as far as they were concerned. That’s the case today as well.

MarketWatch libs are reading and citing this FreeRepublic thread...

Conservatives who support Trump naturally believe (almost) all the polls are bunk, a conspiracy by the “mainstream media” aimed at sinking their candidate.

“Been saying it for 13 months now, Trump LANDSLIDE!!!! Will make the Reagan miracle look like a squeaker,” wrote one poster at the staunchly pro-Trump website Free Republic. (Ronald Reagan beat Walter Mondale 58.8% to 40.6% in 1984 and Jimmy Carter 50.7% to 41% in 1980).

“The MSM is in the tank for Hillary. If Trump was ahead in the polls, do you think they would report it?? Hell no.” - A Trump supporter

“The MSM is in the tank for Hillary. If Trump was ahead in the polls, do you think they would report it?? Hell no,” another poster wrote.

Polls show Clinton widening lead over Trump. And no, it’s not a conspiracy
