The polls were never accurate.  Just like the reporting that Biden was compos mentis.

All within margin of error and therefore all completely riggable.

 

 

 

Hell yea!!! Harris in the lead!!!

 

 For reference, Trafalgar’s final poll in 2022 for PA Senate was Oz +2 and it ended up being Fetterman +5. Their final poll in 2022 for WI Senate was Johnson +3 and it ended up being Johnson +1. MI didn’t have a Senate election since 2020.

If we want to look at how Trafalgar did state wide in 2020:

Before the 2020 United States presidential election, Trafalgar Group said that Trump would win the election, estimating that he would win Arizona, Florida, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, and Pennsylvania. Joe Biden won the election with 306 electoral votes and succeeded in winning Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, and Pennsylvania. As to a number of swing states, Trafalgar's latest 2020 general election polls showed Trump winning Arizona by 3 points, Georgia by 4 points, Michigan by 3 points, Nevada by 1 point, and Pennsylvania by 2 points. However, Biden won Arizona by less than 1 point, Georgia by less than 1 point, Michigan by nearly 3 points, Nevada by approximately 2.5 points, and Pennsylvania by approximately 2 points.

 

Using the Right's unskewing of polls here

So Michigan they were off by 6. That means Harris up 6.

PA they were off 4, so Harris up 2.

AZ they were off 4, so Harris up 3

GA off 5, so Harris up 5.

NV off 3.5, so Harris up 2.5

 

That's more in line with the other polls we're seeing as well.

 

Great results today!!! Keep it going Harris

Lol when you can actually tell me what weighing a poll means, I'll take what you post seriously.

 

Until then - you're just a right wing idiot that does what the Republicans tell you to do and follow it blindly.

You think in a poll a +7 Dem sample where Kamala is +2 means that it took a +7 Dem sample just to get a +2 Harris. You didn't know the polls are weighted to match the expected voting. That's what I'm talking about.

 

As to your other post and why it's asinine, is you don't know if there will be a systematic error in the polling that will be the same as 2016 or 2020. In fact, we can look at 2022 and say the pollsters have probably already over compensated for Dems since all the polls then called for a Red Wave. So, in 2022, we saw a clear systematic error favoring Republicans. 

 

Looking at any of the poll data, you can use Rasmussen and Trafalgar if you want, what from their methodology points to correcting the 2022 errors?

From Trump 2024 where I had to explain to you what weighing is.

It’s not done easily. Each pollster does it different. With large enough samples they can weigh down to things like age, sex, and other characteristics. In the end it’s all math.

It's over for Kameltoe but there's 0% chance they will let Trump win. Something big will happen in the next 60 days guaranteed if this continues.
