ROTFLOL!
that’s a real hoot to see the uber-leftist economist website try to knock down the rising poll numbers for Donald Trump’s popularity ... following their reasoning, polls indicating Trump’s chances of winning the 2016 elections should not have been as high as 2%, but should have been somewhere around -120% ...
oh, btw, your ridiculous, unsubstantiated claim that “Gallup poll is KNOWN to lean toward conservative” is equally hilarious ...
KNOWN by whom exactly? anyone besides yourself? care to present any actual evidence that gallup is KNOWN to be biased towards conservatives? i mean, KNOWN besides yourself, of course ...
Cause we know gallup is so conservative. They were the only poll to accurately predict Trump would win the election - oh whoops.
The political leanings of the various polling outfits has been a discussion item in my family over the years. This is partly because my late husband was housemates with George Gallup’s son, Alec I think, who we met one time in Princeton. Thus this was a topic of special interest to us.
Here is a link regarding the Republican leanings of 2 polling organizations, including Gallup. Whether this is caused by political preference as suggested for Rasmussen, or possibly outdated methodology for Gallup is not for me to decide or answer.
