>> the jaw-dropping 14-point gap is a shocker
No kidding!
Not that I’m disappointed, but I am skeptical. Who the heck is “Foster McCollum White & Associates, Baydoun Consulting and Douglas Fulmer & Associates”?
People whose polls are usually only seen by insiders...
Perhaps you know them better as
FMCW&A,BCDF&A /sarc>
(The lawfirm that got its name when the cat walked across the typewriter.)
Cheers!
Many are unaware the polls they see as being an NBC or WAPO or NYT poll are instead actually done by polling companies such as this one which are commissioned to do them.
Accurate polling is expensive and time consuming. News organizations have neither the expertise or time to do them in any way which would approximate reality.
