They do this EVERY election cycle.

When will people learn this an simply ignore them.

For my part, I keep an eye on Rassmussen's daily tracking poll because, one, I trust him more than other pollsters, and two, looking at the same poll over time gives you an idea of trends.

Beyond that, the rest of them are worthless.

Well, Trump won so it did not suppress the vote in 2016.

Suppresses turn out on the left is what he said.

In their attempt to demoralize Republicans they only increase turnout. It's incredible how delusional they are and that they never learn. If there was any hint of sanity in them they would be honest about the polls and hope Trump supporters get complacent.

You say ignore them all then still refer to a poll. Why? I say learn about the candidates, the voter legislation, and maybe get involved as well. Forget about parties. They're a 1700s invention and an extention of mob rule.

Yes. But these stupid polls keep Biden locked in as nominee.

Love it. So much LOL.

Because think about it: How can they get rid of Biden? He's at least [snicker] 50 points [snicker] ahead of Trump. [OK, I may literally die from laughter now]

In order to dump Biden, they would have to admit their polls are bullshit. But living in the truth is impossible for any loyal Democrat.

Both of those options spotlight the public royalty display of the DNC which they seem to want more time to spin. They'll take the blow for the long con.

Anytime a liberal posts a poll just go into the poll data, usually a pdf, and find where the number of people that are sampled. 9 times out of 10 it’s usually a D+8 sampling

Fox News is one of the worst. There polls should just be banned at this point

Even my troll posts on reddit are getting upvoted lately. This is going to be a landslide.

Stopped listening to polls in 2015. Never really listened to polls before that as its always down to the area they go to or phone people.

If you are being polled and they are clearly right or left if you don't say what they want to hear you are just crossed off.

Like I said it works both ways and I'm talking about polls in different countries aswell. It just depends on the opposition and who has been bought out.

The only thing that scares me are Vegas odds, and they have Trump around +110 or something now. Biden was +110 until this past week.

Were the Vegas odds wrong in 2016?

Probably since everything was showing Hillary winning.

I didn't keep up with them in 2016, but then again I didn't have money on the election in 2016

Yes, they were way, way off.

In the UK the odds for a Trump win were 5/1 (+500). One of the bookies was even dumb enough to pay out to anyone backing Killary after the Access Hollywood Tapes.

You know that just comes from where people are placing bets? That's it. Vegas ain't magical.

Yeah, I know it's mainly hedged based on what money is in the pool for who, I just trust Vegas more than the media :p A sad reality

We polled 80% Democrats and found that Biden has a 53% chance of taking the election!

You should tell the pollsters that you're supporting sleepy joe. Let the dems think they've already won the election and not bother to turn out.

The fine print is pages long now, and they only admit to making it all up in the last sentence or deferring to the fact they're just like (they're actuslly worse than) professional wrestling.

Media wants every election to be "close". Much like a tied football game it keeps people engage with those sources so that can peddle influence like a bunch of dicks.
