So what has the track record for polling been on this site for past elections? Is this the only election that has been accurately predicted or have there been others as well?
Interesting, so this site's polling predicted that Obama would win those two elections? That is interesting if that is the case simply because this site seems to lean more on the conservative side....though it might have been more liberal back then, which is always a possibility.
All the polls taken here on the P&C forums, were correct and the nonsense news over the last year were wrong.
What does that tell ya?
It tells me that all the current pollsters and pundits who made big bucks polling and punditing throughout the election are screw-ups, and that the campaigns should be paying US instead.
The polls taken here are generated by the American people based on their own opinions.
The pollsters base their polling information on certain demographics, manipulating the questions or statements so they can achieve their desired PC based outcome.
Smart bunch of people on City Data that is why. I read some personal accounts on Trump support in the Mid West and just could not believe how Hillary would hold onto Obama voters there. Same with Florida. One member on the site told of how rallies and Trump signs were allover the state. Others laughed and derided him for it.
Where did all the resident Hillary fans end up ?....Not seen the usual names for quite some time.

So did the polls taken on this site show that Obama was going to win in 2008 and 2012?

Actually... the polls were not that far off. Most of them had Clinton ahead by 3 to 4 percentage points in the national vote. She ended up with a 2.5% lead and that's within the margin of error. What the polls got wrong is how the vote played out in the electoral college.
