None of this changes the fact that the site you chose is ignoring polls which makes them uncredible. Oh OK. You never praised them. And how convenient that you don’t trust any polls.

jonmx 2,429 Posted September 30, 2024 Let's see, polls overestimated Hillary' support in 2016 by 4 percent. Polls overestimated Biden's support in 2020 by 4 percent. Trump is outperforming his 2016 and 2020 by large margins and is doing much much better with Hispanics and Blacks. These same polls are still over sampling Democrats by some 7 percent while Gallup has just shown for the first time in decades more voters ID as Republicans than Democrats. Harris has ZERO chance in Georgia or Arizona and is down by 4 points in all the rust belt states. Tampon Tim is in meltdown trying to find an excuse to get out of the debate. Harris's internal polling shows she is well behind in key states. The Democrat Senator in Michigan was caught on top admitting Harris has little chance to win there. You can choose to believe all the same polls which lied to you in 2016 and 2020, or you can open your eyes and see nothing has changed in their flawed methods and they are going produce similar results overstating Democratic support, particularly in the Presidentional race. It may be comforting to believe the propaganda, but reality is just a month away. Brace yourself. Trump is going to win the popular vote by nearly 3 percent and get over 300 EVs.

Frozenbeernuts 2,264 Posted September 30, 2024 Do her supporters just not like going to rallies and events? Seems odd that she would be so popular, but her and Walz have low turn outs. Another thing that I find odd with these polls is that Trump is the most beloved presidential candidate we have had in a while. Kamala has none of that. Yet she is up in the polls? It doesn't add up. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It was hilarious the she tried to turn it on Trump and say his rallies were fake, when there is video after video showing overflowing crowds and most Trump fans getting turned away from his rallies. Kamala needs cleverly placed cameras to exaggerate her crowds. The Gallup favorability vs. Unfavorability ratings also favor Trump by a few points which almost perfectly tracks the voting.

jonmx 2,429 Posted September 30, 2024 1 hour ago, TimHauck said: So the 2020 election results were accurate? The state results were horrible, many off by 7-10 percent. The had Biden project winning big in AZ with a 99% chance, but he barely squeaked out a win by 10k votes. They had Biden winning Iowa by 2 points, Trump won by 9 points. They had Biden by a lock in Wisconsin, Biden barely won by 20k votes. Nationally, they had Biden winning by about 8 points, he won by 4 points. Yeah they got the winner right, but they underestimated Trump in all the battleground states by significant margins way outside their stated margin of error. Overall their bias towards Biden was in the 3-4 percent range across the country, and they are still using all their same faulty assumptions this time around. What 538 calls 'high-quality' polls that they weight most heavily are all the most Democratic-bias polls from 2016 and 2020. Instead of getting better, they fired Nate Silver and replaced him with a complete partisan hack. Not at all surprising since ABC has taken over 538. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sean Mooney 1,983 Posted September 30, 2024 Trump this weekend in talking about illegal immigration. Quote "“They have a phone app so that people can come into our country… these are smart immigrants, I guess, because most people don’t have any idea what the hell a phone app is,” Here's the thing- whether you are voting for Trump or not- he thinks you are an idiot and he is so much smarter than everyone- both supporters and detractors.

The Real timschochet 6,765 Posted September 30, 2024 One of Jon’s biggest flaws (there are so many) is his assumption that because pollsters missed the “hidden Trump vote” in 2016 and 2020 they will miss it again. Thats wrong: https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/4904402-trump-polls-accuracy-questioned/amp/ In fact I don’t think that article goes far enough. I think the polls have overcorrected in favor of Trump: I believe Kamala has a bigger lead than is being shown and it’s going to be a shock to Jon and others on election night- so much so that he will no doubt cry foul. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You are delusional and your article is nothing but a bunch of empty words, some of which are just false. To get published in newspapers and to be rated 'high quality' you must show a bias towards Democrats. The historically most accurate pollsters like Rasmussen and Atlasintel get delisted or have their rating lowered (and their respective weighting removed or reduced) for not producing the desired numbers. High quality polling is expensive and many organizations are now sharing data and the only difference is how they manipulate the data. I am not assuming anything about their inaccuracies, it is right there in their data if you dig down into the tabs and see their assumed demographics. When pollsters assume demographics which have a larger percentage of college educated people or registered Democrats than what history shows, their results are going to be skewed in favor of Democrats. These errors will be further compounded by data from very reputable polling institutions like Gallup who show that for the first time in many decades, likely voters are more Republican than Democrat. That will add even a bigger shift towards Trump than what is showing in the poll results. It is a nice article with a lot of nice words that claim they made changes. But there was not one specific example of what these changes were. And when you dig into their data it is plain as day thst the biases are still part of their model.
