Because they accurately predicted the election of President Gary Hart in 1984, didn’t they?

Slow Joe is the only one who has a chance but Democrats want all the free chit.

Then again apart from him none of the rest of them are anywhere near electable.

NEVER Believe Political Polls: “Mondale Leads Reagan in Trial Heat for the Presidency” ~ Chicago Tribune, January 24, 1983

The corrupt media’s use of “Push Polling” is nothing new. They’re not designed or intended to measure and report on public opinion, but to create and manipulate public opinion. They’re fictional theater and propaganda tools that are used to influence those who the media believe are easily swayed by popular sentiment, and are either too stupid to responsibly act on their own values and beliefs, or predisposed to tribalist voting habits.

Through the application of formula bias, demographic over-sampling; questionnaire bias; and, numerical under-sampling, today’s corrupt media use political polling to actually create the news, which they then report as if it was externally derived. Their objective is to stimulate controversy and hysteria, and to generate “eyes on sets” and competitive viewer ratings, which translate into market share and the sale of commercial airtime. That’s how they get paid. Thus, their newscasters can easily be confused with carnival barkers.

So, how did the 1984 presidential election turn out for Walter Mondale? Despite the corrupt media’s best efforts to drag his lifeless carcass across the finish line, Mondale was beaten like a rented mule. Reagan won 49 of 50 states. The lone exception was Mondale’s home state of Minnesota, which he won by a whopping 0.18%. Reagan won the popular vote 58.8% to 40.6%; and, the Electoral College by 525 to 13. In contemporary political parlance, it was more grizzly than a baby Harp seal slaughter.

The only poll that matters will be taken on Tuesday, November 3, 2020.

And the Election of President Hillary Clinton in 2016 - by 10 points.
