There's a Garbage poll out today showing Biden leading in TX, after Thursday's debate does anybody thinks Biden wins TX?

Quote:LEE: Polls that come out days before an election that are egregiously off --

LANNELLI: Do they affect the vote?

LEE: We'll never know the answer to that, because clearly in 2016 voters weren’t looking too much at the polls. When a poll comes out with one candidate, in this case Hillary Clinton, winning by 11 points when the winner of the race is the other candidate, that is not an outlier, that is bad polling and makes our entire industry look bad. I called on the American Associated of Public Opinion Research to crackdown on egregious polling to tighten standards for firms that clearly don't understand the landscape of Pennsylvania and that guys like Chris and I trying to do quality work, Chris' last poll in 2016 was in the margin of error. Ours showed the race a statistical tie. When others had the race at 11 points. Do you think that's voter suppression? I’m sticking up for the industry, we need to crackdown, someone needs to say this is out of control. Just look at those RealClear averages.

End Garbage Polling

There's no mystery. Voter rolls in the US indicate roughly the same number of Republicans as Democrats. So---why would any poll seeking accuracy be polling 10 more Democrats than Republicans for every 100 people in the survey pool? The fact the Democrat has a 10 point lead in any poll performed in this manner is a given. Its literally baked into the survey pool.

I laughed the other day a pollster said that if Trump defied their polls this election they’re out of a job.

48 state Biden win inbound!

Pollsters dug themselves into the same hole as the news outlets.

The more manure they shovel. The less people pay attention to them. Yet they just keep shoveling.

Absolutely no chance Biden wins Texas. Zero. Just like last time, its not even going to be close.
