And, again, pointing to the popular vote winning margin is like looking at the NY Yankees' 55 runs in the 1960 World Series vs the Pirates' 27 runs, and declaring that the Yankees were the winner (the Pirates won that WS 4 games to 3).
For the record, Trump's win in 2016 by 77,744 votes (the sum of the winning margin in theTipping point states of PA, MI, and WI) as a percentage of the total popular vote was a narrow 0.0569%, but on par with Carter's winning percentage and higher than that for Truman and Bidet*.
By contrast, Bidet's winning* margin of 0.0277% was the 4th lowest since 1868, and on par with that of Kennedy's (also shady) win. By contrast, the biggest margin percentages were 1936-FDR, 1972-Nixon, 1964-Johnson, and 1984-Reagan. And for what it's worth, Obama and Wilson are the only Presidents (aside from FDR) who's second term winning margin was lower than that in the first term.

“...that produced the sharpest discrepancy between the polls and popular vote outcome...”
Polls mean absolutely (or nearly) nothing. The only thing that matters is the popular vote outcome; that is:
1. Were only legal votes counted; and
2. Were the legal votes counted accurately
I have been very successful in my field. But I’m not a math guy. Got a math
Block. Statistics was the easiest math requirement I could take in college. It took me SIX times to pass it. Even so, I know the answer, geniuses: your sample sets are screwed up. They’re too heavily weighted for democrats. Consistently. Over and over. I’d call them f’in morons, but the fact is they do it on purpose to try to affect the election results, and this introspection is fake.
Ok, I’ll call them f’in morons anyway.
stop it. the polls have been ****ed for a decade. this is just dumb.
The polls were necessary in 2020 to provide cover for the fraud that was about to be perpetuated. And most of the country bought it.
Well, let's Occam's Razor this. My opinion, it's because polling outfits are largely FOS. They rig polls to give the answers their paymasters want. Oh, forgive me... they don't "rig it", they just manipulate the questions and their contacts and censor the results to fit their paymaster's wishes. Oh forgive me... that is rigging it.
Anyway I don't care what anyone says. There is no way Joe Biden won that election legitimately. No way he got 20 million more legitimate votes than Hillary did in 2016. No way Trump lost AZ, PA, MI, WI or GA. Probably not NV either. Trump won by a landslide and the cheaters had to go over the top to make it appear legit. So in 2020, in the middle of a pandemic, more votes were cast then ever before, and the 2nd place finisher got more votes than any other candidate ever, except the winner? I call BS.
How did we gain 22,000,000 boyers in just 4 years ?!?
ROUS? I don’t think they exist.
Polls are now about spoofing citizens into not voting because propaganda about lopsided victory “polling” forecasts.
Polsters are all beholden to the totalitarians.
The deafening silence of the likes of the Tucker/Ryan/Fox News cabal and the expected deaf, dumb and blind fake news media and Mike Pence performing his constitutional duty (GAG!) of rubber stamping the election as legit is all anyone needs to know.
ALL HAIL OBAMA/BIDEN/HARRIS!!!what could account for the colossal failure in polling in 2020...?
Their failure to figure out how to pol 10's of thousands of non-existent voters for Biden/Harris in the largest voter fraud network ever...Don't take my word for it Biden said it himself...Even though the apologist media, including Fox will tell you that was just a typical Biden gaffe we should laugh off.

Polls are requested and paid for by the ENEMEDIA, the ENEMEDIA tells the pollsters what they “EXPECT” the results to be.
It’s really simple once you know how the system works.
Easy peasy. Next time just poll each election worker 5,000 times, make sure to ask the tabulating machines, and don’t bother with asking any voters. You’ll be right on the money.
No surprise.
