the obvious sampling bias in the latest ABC / Washington Post poll that showed a 12-point national advantage for Hillary. Like many of the recent polls from Reuters, ABC and The Washington Post, this latest poll included a 9-point sampling bias toward registered democrats.

...

for all of you out there who still aren't convinced that the polls are rigged, we present to you the following Podesta email, leaked earlier today, that conveniently spells out, in startling detail, exactly how to rig them. The email starts out with a request for recommendations on "oversamples for polling" in order to "maximize what we get out of our media polling."

I also want to get your Atlas folks to recommend oversamples for our polling before we start in February. By market, regions, etc. I want to get this all compiled into one set of recommendations so we can maximize what we get out of our media polling.

The email even includes a handy, 37-page guide with the following poll-rigging recommendations. In Arizona, over sampling of Hispanics and Native Americans is highly recommended:

- Over-sample Hispanics . Use Spanish language interviewing. (Monolingual Spanish-speaking voters are among the lowest turnout Democratic targets).

Jim Murphy has a child battling cancer and left the active campaign to be with his child. He is still an advisor and talks daily with Trump or senior campaign staff via phone or email!

Bravo! Thank you for the intel, I couldn’t find it. Sounds like a good man and of course the media spun it negatively.

No.
Their campaign wanted wanted groups ‘oversampled’ so they could learn more about them, more accurately.

Correct. And the email was from 2008.

The RNC is supposed to be spending all of that money that Trump is raising for them since the convention. Remember how Willard’s campaign was handicapped by not being able to spend before the convention?

Duuuuh! Won’t see this on the regular MSM.....we’ve been on to them for quite a while. I expect them to stop providing sampling demographics soon and showing Hillary up by ...... 50

To: Does so

Why have elections if every thing is rigged? For Soros to control the DNC and for the networks to pad their pockets with campaign ads for 2 years. The DNC controls the media and wants to control us.

The liars are more than worried (about Hellery), the scum are in desperation mode now. They are the best George Soros can buy and they can't do any better than this. This is how you watch them squirm even more, just make fun of them!

LOL at Hellery and her band of scumbag followers and slaves.
