    The flaw was having lefties involved with polling when they have a horse in the race. It messes up all the data.

    Yes. It can do that.

    I am interested in what sort of post mortems will be done on the various polls.

    Even if everything you say is true that still does nothing to prove the validity of online polls. Sorry, but online polls are inherently inaccurate in representing a general population.

    "Online" does not compromise the validity of polls, lefties do.

    Polling clearly failed regardless of which side it was coming from. It's not as if right leaning polls predicted Trump's win. Clearly what happened is a lot of people voted for trump without ever saying they would vote for him before voting.

    The polls were establishment polls. The establishment had a horse in the race, so the polls were designed to show that the "normal" thing to do is to vote for that horse. The polls were rigged, and the election was rigged in Hillary's favor. Fortunately, we the people could see through the establishment/media, and we put an end to it.

    Yes and I will also add that I THINK that the LA times and IBD polls were automated without necessarily over sampling Democrats whereas most of the other polls were conducted with a human being on the line. I mentioned a month or two ago, I don't post all that much so should be easy to find but I am on my phone, that I believe it was very possible that the outcome could be like Brexit. That the MSM had done such a good job labeling Trump every -ist and -phobe known to man that many people were simply shamed into saying just about any other name when on the phone with a pollster.

    I will also add that earlier this year I didn't believe he would even make it out of the primary because I thought what would happen to Sanders would happen to Trump. Glad it didn't.

    Ps...she won the popular vote so technically the polls who had her up by 2 or 3 were within margin of error which I hate to admit because I believe they were biased for the reasons stated above.

    It gets way more complicated when you start looking at it deeper. The voting base was poisoned by the pollsters and the lefty media who shared a horse in the race, so the popular vote becomes a manipulated vote as well. That base (lefties) was unaware that the information that they were using to evaluate who to vote for was engineered for them by the pollsters and the lefty media, and that the rest of the relevant data was somewhere else and obtainable.

    If only this was relevant to something. It does not take a mathematics degree to see what effect lefties have on polls and statistics when they have a horse in the race.

    Nonsense. Clearly racism, bigotry, and hate is a far greater problem than anticipated. Many people who voted for trump were too embarrassed to admit it publicly, hence the poor poll numbers.

    Doesn't matter. Evmetro is one of those hate filled, short brained conservatives who never fails to make the effort to denigrate liberals - even though his lame attempts at insults do little more than further illustrate what he is.
