In what was clearly one of the most shocking polls to come out of Iowa this year, a New York Times/Siena College survey released over the weekend showed Democrat Cindy Axne leading Republican Rep. David Young by 43 to 41 percent in the Des Moines-based 3rd District.

Show me one poll

What the hell is Iowa fertilizing their corn with?
Maybe some leftscum will stay home believing they’ve won! Us Trumpsters on the other hand WILL VOTE regardless of these flawed LSM push polls.
It took 19,000 calls to get 504 responses? This poll is meaningless, it is self-selecting. The sample is unreliable and even the margin of error is meaningless. For even a semblance of accuracy they need to have some form of control, otherwise the sample is biased/tainted. For example who is likelier to answer a call? An unemployed or employed? A retiree or a student? Man or woman? White or non-white? And of these groups which is more likely than others to vote? When you call 19,000 times and get only 500 responses, you are basically getting demographics skewed.
Many polls adjust for such issues, based on historical data, and so they randomly strike out some responses in order to balance according to their demographic projections. Which obviously further taints the data because they cannot account for what may be motivating voters this year vs their historical models.

Thank you for your work.
This is the problem with ALL of the New York Times polls.

I’m glad that you love God’s word. No one needs permission to take it to heart and Repeat it as often as necessary.Certainly no permissions are needed from me.
1. Its a NySlimes poll.
2. 43 to 41 is well within the margin of error.
3. Democrats lie.

I see what you did there with that nice green check mark...
That is why Democrats will be in for a SHOCK on Election night when they don't win!
I poll democrat.. tell them I am Mary jo (kopechne). Am I really the only one? I consider it none of their darn business.. if my polling changes the way another person votes, they have no principles and shouldn’t be voting at all. If my polling discouraged anyone from voting, they have no accountability as a citizen.
