Similar to last time. Trump had multitudes waiting in line to see him. Football Arenas had to turn people away. Hillary couldn’t fill a small High School auditorium. Yet she led by what, 20 points, with a 93% chance of winning?
The MSM lies about everything, every time. Without exception.
I WANT to believe this. We do know corporate Fox News execs are liars and haters, and in 2016 produced a lying laughable poll showing Trump back 5 points.
Important thread but I think we should have two days where the word poll cannot be included in any thread after this :-)
ALL polls reflect the outcome desired by the guy paying for it. For certain sure, no doubt. That’s how the pollsters stay in business. ALL polls are mostly Bullshit.
I gave different answers about what party I am registered between the two times. The first was D, but I strongly agreed with all conservative positions and strongly disagreed with all leftist positions - same thing with candidates. The second time, I did the same, but told them I am registered as an R.
I seriously question any poll that sends a text message. But it did get though to me. Who knows if I was called (voice) for a poll. If I don't know the number dialing me, it doesn't get answered.
There is little science (mathematics, as in statistics) going on here. I use stats every day for work. I have three college courses (although eons ago) in prob and stats - calculus based. It wasn't all maths either. We learned about how to define populations, random sample, etc.
It has to be an up hill battle for any pollster to sample accurately to reflect those the population of those who will actually vote. Cell phones and caller ID were the game changer. So many, including myself, do not have a landline.
The Dem elites know Trump will win on election day. They want to make it seem like his victory isn’t legitimate. Then, millions of mail in ballots will appear to elect Biden.
When they are trying to figure out the winner, protesters and rioters, Antifa and BLM, will cause havoc. This is the plan, orchestrated by Obama, Soros and NeverTrumpers. This is why Obama never left DC.
Polls are inherently inaccurate. Decent, rational people do not take unsollicited calls or discuss their personal political opinions with strangers. Also as businessmen the polling companies just happen to come up results that please the people who commissioned the poll.
I would be a lot more confident if the Rasmussen Poll had not had Biden at 12 over Trump. Todays approval was down to 44. I’m hoping they just got some weird blip in their numbers and everything will be better next week. The other polls are full of crap. Who would trust a Fox poll or a CNN poll?
Polling is there to provide cover for the cheating ballots that they plan to bring in.
I don’t know. Suburban voters in even Massachusetts are big on Trump.
Once again, the polls will be shown to be lies. This election be 2016 redux.
The polls will tighten right before the election so they can claim they were within the margin of error. Happens every election.
Let’s see. Trump supporters are being openly assaulted and attacked every day. I’m thinking that this might cause a Trump supporter to NOT tell a complete stranger that he’s a Trump supporter.
Upon hearing that the details on the Rasmussen polls are behind a paywall, I find them less trustworthy now.
Here is the deal, there is simply NO WAY both the NBA finals and the NFL would have suffered such a catastrophic collapse in their TV ratings if President Trump were behind in the polls.
After all, it was President Trump who called on Americans to boycott NBA NFL games over their disrespect for the flag. As it turns out, most Americans agreed with him.
Slow Joe and the Dems strongly took a knee with the overpaid BLM backing millionaires of pro sports.
It’s impossible for Trump to be behind by what was it, 16 points from CNN, even while most Americans show they agree with him, and huge numbers show up for Trump’s rallies even as Slow Joe struggles to get even 20 people to attend any rally of his.

OK, so the they are sampling suburban Repubs ... whatever.
They are Repubs, and if a significant amount of Repubs whoever they are are going to vote for Biden, then Trump is sunk and the polls are more accurate then we all believe.
We know that there are hardly any Dems out there who are going to vote for Trump, so add it up.
Lets for a moment say that the percentage of Repubs (Suburban vs. Rural) is 25% to 75%, then if Trump is losing say 10% - 15% of the Suburban Repubs, that is easily enough votes to give Biden a big win in Nov.
Now I am really depressed.

Just going to make the win that much sweeter.
