Yeah except we don’t do elections based on the popular vote....or didn’t you know that.
That aside if you were to actually look at all the polling from 2016 you would know that the “experts” had Clinton up mostly close to double digits until the last 2 weeks when as usual they began to report honestly in order to preserve their credibility.
Polls today are nothing but attempt to influence the vote and not in any way to predict it.
