Most pollsters are moving their polls towards being tied up or close to it. They think this will save their credibility come election no matter who wins. Just a thought.

That's probably "it"! Gallup had been doing presidential election polling since 1936, and they gave up after 2012.

If a pollster say's it's a tie going into the election, the worst that they are likely to be off is 2-3%.

I am skeptical of any poll using telephone land lines at this point, and skeptical of almost all the polls using the internet. There really isn't any good way to poll now.

(As for next Tuesday, a Chinese monkey chose Trump over Clinton, and that's probably as accurate as any poll!)

"A Chinese monkey described as the “king of prophets” has tipped Donald Trump for the US presidency, a tourism park said, after the creature successfully predicted the winner of football’s European Championship final earlier this year."

Yep- Myself and most of my friends haven’t had landlines for years. And any calls to my cell phone that isn’t identified by my contact list, doesn’t get answered.
