I don't believe any of the polls, and most are nothing more than a way to get the sheeple to believe what the puppet masters wants them to.
Hence the reason so many people believe the most flawed, corrupt and dishonest candidate in our history will win easily.
Might it have to do with multiple polls saying Hillary is guaranteed to win by 12 or even 15 points at various times?
You bet it is, and even the talking heads go by such things. Yet as we have seen in other examples like Reagan vs. Carter, the polls can be wrong just a couple of days before the election. Heck the Brexit polls and even the bookies had it wrong the night before the election just a few short months ago.
So we shall see if a couple of these algorithms or predictors are right about Trump winning in about 24 hours from now.
Reagan gained a convincing lead in polls after the debate against Carter. So no, that's not an example. Brexit was too close to call in polls, with 10% undecided. That was a failure of punditry, not polls.
Fact of the matter is polls are pretty good. They've accurately called close elections for quite some time.
Nobody has ever amassed the polling lead Clinton gained after the debates and the conventions and gone on to lose. Nobody has ever led in the vast majority of polls for the entire cycle and then lost. If Trump wins it will be truly unprecedented in American history. Not that new things cannot happen. Maybe this will be the year something new happens. I don't claim to know!
