(62,276 posts)...we missed the Latino/Cuban vote, but somehow this could mean something about the Midwestern suburbs?

(4,846 posts)That's known for weeks, we just didn't think it was that bad in FL.
Bidens deficit in FL is far greater than the Miami Dade Cuban shortfall.
Theres a bigger polling miss going on somewhere.

(4,846 posts)Trump is up like 300,000 in FL. Way more than the Miami Dade shortfall. We are seeing a polling miss with the independent voters.

(290 posts)What happens in Kansas might not effect a suburb in Michigan or Ohio or whomever....
Also Kansas has been subtle in trending blue, because of ages of horrible Rethug rule.

(26,045 posts)They deserve fault for 2016, because they took what was a close race with polling going in different directions, and put together the big picture wrong.
This time, the issue would be that the polls were quite clear-cut and virtually all in agreement, and all would have had to turned out to be drastically wrong.
If 45 wins again, the ones needing to take a long, hard look at themselves are the polling organizations, who seem to have all been off-base. If the raw data you're given is wrong, then it doesn't matter how you combine it.
