Yes, most definitely. I don’t know why Fox News plays the game as well. For them it is game over. I am also not accounting for a possible enthusiasm gap as well that Trump may have over Clinton.

LA times was the RAND poll in 2012

Thanks. OK, so it understated Obama by 3 (48% to 51 actual) and understated Romney by 1 (46 to 47 actual) on Oct 22, 2012.

Nate silver had them listed as top 4 for accuracy in 2012, along with IBD. The way it's usually calculated is the delta between the win % as all polls have undecided that ultimately must vote on Election Day. Was a 1.5% dem bias on average

And what makes you such an election expert? How many elections have you run and won?

If the establishmedia tells the truth that the election is close or Trump leading Hillary’s funding would dry up and so would their ad buys. Follow the money.

Pray America wakes

“They will call FL for Clinton before the Panhandle polls close.”

Don’t be surprised if they do. The media is on a mission this year ...

I don’t know why Fox News plays the game as well. For them it is game over.

With the exception of some good people like Lou Dobbs, Fox News is on the side of the RNC and the GOP establishment. Like Romney and the Bushes, they want Hillary to win because she's on the same page as the GOP elites on trade, immigration, and foreign policy.

That's why they're reporting the worst poll results for Trump and burying polls that show the race as being close, with the hope that we won't bother to show up and vote for what is being sold as a lost cause (and so that we won't inquire into possible cases of voter fraud when they do occur in close states). This election has shined the light on what a lot of people and organizations are really all about.

Well, wonder what they will think when the Fairness Doctrine is revived?
