this poll confirms my preconceived biases... thus it is spectacularly well run and accurate. Best poll I've ever seen. WarGamer Aug 2024 #9

Claiming that his "model" showed trump ahead based on a fudge factor to reduce the post convention bounce.

...and hope that confirms our preconceived notions. Polls used to mean something before the 2000 election. They've been shit ever since.

This nation is far too divided for a landslide.

unless you can point to where the people liking these polls had previously disparaged other polls it is insulting to the community as a whole.

Some people here can take polls for what they are both prone to issues and also somewhat informative but not fact.

So much for Nate Silver and Mark Haperin and his 2way which has been trying to boost Trump.

I don't think this Bloomberg/Morning Consult poll had come out yet. I hope his next post will have her as the frontrunner again!

And thanks for the RealClearPolitics update. I'd forgotten about them and will start checking them regularly.
