Unfortunately yes. But it coincides with a NY Times article today about the death of REAL JOURNALISM in America. I stopped getting news from the mainstream media long ago...it makes me ill to even listen to the BS coming from CNN or even FOX at times. I believe no polls good for Trump or bad....none of them can be trusted.
PS - Pollsters always sample far more respondents than they use, then they sort the data so that age/race/gender of a subset of all the respondents match the expected electorate. That's how polling works. God, I swear, the Trump crowd is so utterly ignorant about... well, damn near everything...
Did any of you ever attend college? Maybe take a stats course? Or maybe just use basic common sense?

No?
Hello?
Bueller?
When November comes closer and polls still show Hillary leading, then we can look forward to the multitude of posts about "unskewing" the polls they haven't learned from the Ron and Rand Paul debacles. Just because they themselves really love a candidate, doesn't mean everyone else will or should.

So that's your answer to obviously rigged polls? Eh whatever. She "wins" since it will be rigged anyways then millions of patriots will wipe out the gun stores buying everything left up and HOPEFULLY a patriot or more than one will see to their duty to protect America and if not I hope we can keep the congress out of her evil grasp and block every single thing she wants including SC justices
There is no doubt that the polls defied logic when Hillary's favorability, and trustworthiness ratings were dropping, but we were supposed to believe that she was then surging in the polls.
The polls didn't pass the smell test, and there are tow now confirmed as bogus.
There is something called weighting to make sure you have a sample that matches the state, this should not be a hard concept... 2012 unskewed polls redux....

It is when the side you want is a flush away.
