Why is it that you only post polls where Trump is leading? I find that odd.

Why don’t you post polls where Trump is not leading? I find that odd.

Not that it's any of your business but I have a life and I'm retired. From mid October - the first week of November, is my busiest time every year. I go on the computer (a desk top) early in the morning those days and I'm out before the polls are released (usually 9:00A). By the time I come back on in the afternoon or early evening, someone else has already posted the poll results. Sometimes poll results are release at 6:00PM. I hear about them while watching TV but I have a desktop and I don't have a smartphone. I'm not sitting by my PC 24/7.

I never post the polls where I don't understand the methodology. I skipped a Trump winning poll IPSOS something or other and Survey Monkey online stuff because of that reason. I don't believe in Real Clear Politics which averages polls, either.

I see a current poll in my state that I find hard to believe because my state is overwhelmingly Republican except for Nashville and Memphis. I simply don't believe that any Democrat would best any/every Republican in my state except in those two districts so I'll wait for the next one before I believe it.

How many polls has Trump not been leading in? I think that will go a long way in explaining your issue.

Dequindre hasn't started a thread yet with a "poll" topic so maybe his candidate hasn't really entered the race yet, we do have a few candidates just standing dumbfounded at the starting line. Some seem to be running in the wrong direction, some hiding and laying low..............

Well, fact is, I saw a Poll you, LauraC, posted in a Therad HERE, yesterday, early Sunday morning which showed Ben Carson on Top with 31% and Trump in the low 20's as I recall.

So, this guy has made a bogus, Wrong claim.

Actually, y'day, when I saw the Poll Thread posted by LauraC, showing Carson leading, I was Surprised.

But, she did post that Thread, so, your claim Sir, is False.

Meh.
Zogby's unique polling approach completely fell apart in 2012 and they've lost most of their credibility. And their clients as well.

I take every result they publish with a lot of skepticism these days. They still don't have their act together.
