Assessing the Representativeness of Public Opinion Surveys Overview

People like me are fed up with the polls so we either don’t answer, or answer in a non responsive manner. FU MSM and you push pollsters.
In other words...
The challenges of polling when too many people understand the agenda of push polling.
I do not pick up phone calls from anyone I don’t know. None.
If it is important, they will leave a message.
The phone poll people can thank the Robo Call plague for finding few working pickups.
So, in 1997 out of 1000 calls or attempts to solicit a response, there were 139 responses.
In 2012 there were less than 8 per 1000.
“If you look carefully you can see that the response rate dropped 15% in 2009 to 9% in 2012. That means the current response rate on 2016 is about 5% which is very good news. That means pollsters that I can control can make stuff up. Yes! Winning!”
Love, Hillary
“P.S. If the trend lines hold no-one will respond in 2020. I will then be able to lead any opponent 100 to 0%, even in Texas!”
In other words...
Their gonna just...
Make stuff up!!!
Michigan - for 2012 we got several poll calls about Romney/Obama. This time around we got one local Michigan poll back in September, other than that nothing.
“What, you voted for Obama in 2012? We’ll make you a Hillary leaning voter!”
We have been called four times this month where we were disqualified because we were not on a cell phone.
Political seasons really give my phoneblocking a workout. Between the GOTV calls and the polls I’ve blocked dozens of numbers in the last few months. Especially SSI, man those guys are jerks, they’ll call you 3 or 4 times in one night, even if you answer and say you don’t want to answer anymore polls ever 20 minutes later... They were the first ones I blocked with the new phone.
Ping! poll mechanics...
It’s simple: Trump voters that did not vote in the last few elections are NOT BEING POLLED, because they are not deemed to be “Likely voters.”
Polls are NOT news..!!
