Nolte: Failed Iowa Pollster Now Claims She Helped Trump Win
Breitbart ^ | 11/08/2024 | John Nolte

Posted on 11/08/2024 9:23:50 AM PST by ChicagoConservative27

Famed Iowa pollster Ann Selzer spent decades building her credibility, but as the saying goes, she lost it all in a moment.

For those who are lucky enough not to know — because not knowing means your life is not consumed by politics — Selzer has been hailed for years as a gold-standard pollster. Not only among Iowa pollsters, but among all pollsters. Her Des Moines Register poll is treated as something sacred. So…

You can only imagine (and even if you watched in real time, it is still hard to imagine it happened) the reaction among Democrats and the Selzer-worshipping corporate media when her poll said Donald Trump would lose Iowa to Kamala Never-Worked-At-McDonald’s Harris by three points.

The early voting model predicted Trump +15—and I posted it the day of her poll.

The actual result was Trump +13.

I promise to try to be more accurate next time.

Lol.

No one need believe that cock and bull story. She outright sold out to the Harris Campaign, giving her a bump hoping it would realize into actual votes. SHE TOOK MONEY!

Her explanation is horsesh!t, and I hope people wanting polls from someone who can be BOUGHT know this.

She put out a propaganda poll to motivate dems to get out and vote.

It was completely manufactured and she got paid.

There is no coming back Ann.

You’re done.

Polls are now used to manipulate people to sway voter opinion and at the very least should have some sort of regulation

Exactly. Which is why I was sick of seeing them posted here. They are worse than worthless.

Someone that crazy and stupid is likely a danger to herself and to others.

Let’s not go overboard here. The final popular vote numbers after California is done is probably going to be well within MOE of most polls.

But this woman got paid. She is done forever. She lied about her turnout model and numbers.

And btw, yup Lara Trump fan who kicked butt, but she is eclipsing Whatley, the actual head of the RNC. He did a great job.

Selzer’s bogus poll may have energized the Dem base just enough to prevent the GOP from winning another 3-4 Senate seats.
