Ann Coulter warned in her book Slander in 2003 that the far left main stream media always uses polls to push their agenda. Polls can be skewed by selecting an unreasonable sample size, by asking lead up questions or by selecting more of a sample population of one side of an issue to achieve a desired result.
Main stream media skews polls to discourage potential voters from voting and has done it for years.
A good example of the media trying to shape a vote was in 1980. In a Gallup poll released on October 26th in 1980, two weeks before the election, Jimmy Carter was leading Ronald Reagan 47 39. Two weeks later Reagan won in such a landslide that Carter conceded before California was closed.

With the trail of dead bodies and broken lives left behind this witch, she deserves to eat her out with a close LOSS.
If the polling is wrong how come TRUMP is leading in some of the States like Ohio, don’t know about CO or NV now but he was leading in those too!!
what the hell is going on with polling??!!!
Let’s just hope that the Democrats are buying into their own polls and that they decide not to use every nasty fraudulent voter fraud trick that they have and are overwhelmed by Trump voters at the polls. It was not a huge surprise that Romney or McCain lost. In hindsight it doesn’t seem like either of them had the will to win. Trump is a different animal altogether; he is a hungry lion and will continue to fight for all its worth until the end and beyond if there is evidence of fraud.
Hope he invites Bills black son to the inaugural.
i hope he is invited to the third debate.
sit him as close as you can to his father.
black lives matter.
Goldberg is like George Will, Mark Levin and Kraphammer - THEORETICAL conservatives.
They are GREAT at theorizing the ideal conservative who would never get nominated, let alone elected, and probably doesn’t even exist, but quick to condemn ANYONE who asymptotically approaches the level of perfection.
I know I can’t trust polls. Polls are fraught with deceit and wishful thinking. Nobody knows what is going to happen on November 8th.
But yet I keep coming back to FR, desperate for a morsel of encouraging news that Trump is winning or that Hillary Clinton’s house of lies has finally collapsed.
The suspense is killing me - and the outcome is so important I’m afraid I won’t know how to go back to my day to day existence if he loses.
I’ll tell you one thing: win or lose, I have really come to admire this man. What a scrapper. What a generous guy to give up his amazing private life and put up with all this hatefulness.
What a sacrifice he is making, trading away what would have been a peaceful and private life, basking in the love of his family and friends, traveling the world in the twilight of his life.
Sacrificing all that only to take a huge pay cut, face the ugly, mocking, scornful hate and repudiation of the ruling class he seeks to overthrow. To live under the constant threat that one of his millions of enemies will do him or his family harm.
He’s doing all this for us. I hope enough people appreciate the enormity of what he is offering us and show up to vote.
Good point.
True.

Trump is leading in both PPD and LA/Usc and has so for several days. The trend is Trump in Rasmussen where he was behind by 7 last week after the stupid video and now only trails by one. My bet is Trump will be up in Ras tomorrow.
Maybe they will deliver a “letter” and have her sign for it!
Camera on their mail pouch
bobsunshine, NEVER and I mean NEVER in my lifetime seen the enthusiasm, there have been custom painted cars, trucks, boats, HUGE 18 wheeler rigs, crop fields over this country with Trumps name it has REALLY BEEN AMAZING!!! People in this country are PISSED!!! People are being SHAMED with the typical PC CRAP there are MANY who would NEVER admit to a pollster the truth!!!! I am with you Trump in a LANDSLIDE!!!! REMEMBER BREXIT polls overwhelmingly were STAY same thing people being shamed, called names homophobic, islamophobic, uneducated YET they woke up the day of VOTING and VOTED LEAVE!!!! This movement IS happening world wide GLOBALISM is FAILING people WANT their countries BACK!!!!!
But he is not leading in most of the swing States except for like 2!
If the polling is all wrong, how come TRUMP is leading in some States?
My understanding is that the final Reagan-Carter poll taken, on Monday before the election, showing Reagan with a tiny lead, which was the very first time they showed him leading, was not released to the public until after the election.
I just turned off Fox (Neil Cavuto) as he was spreading “the bad news” of Trump doing badly in polls.
The same crap everywhere you turn, everyone attacks Trump, or they try to depress turn-out with defeatism.
Broken Glass, Broken Glass!
Nothing will stop me from voting.
I have friends in their late 40’s and early 50’s that have never voted in their life. They are registered to vote this year, and are willing to walk on broken glass to vote for Trump. I dont see them being able to steal it. And I really believe at least 90% of the indie male vote goes to Trump as well, I just cant see any guy pulling the lever for the hilda beast.
Serious line: Polls are exercising their rights to skew the masses and run the sheeple through before the Judas gate slams shut.
“...Trump Win and Possible Landslide”
.
Dear God, let this be Your Will.
Because there’s national polls and state-by-state polls. In the former, Hillary has a moderate lead, in the latter, Trump it is very close with Trump up in some, if not most, of the battleground states. The election will come down to just a few states. CNN was breathlessly talking about Hillary reaching out into Arizona and how Georgia was in “play”. There’s no ice cube’s chance in hell she will win those states, but she’s got the money to spread the wealth, make it look that way for psy ops and to make Trump possibly spend money in sure bet states. I don’t think Trump will fall for it as he is focusing solely on battleground states here on out.
