It's the only one that shows Smiley within striking distance of Murray.

(3,871 posts)Trafalgar has been releasing a ton of polls in a lot of States that show Republicans doing 5-7 points better in their races than other pollsters. Nate Silver has said that his site doesn't include Trafalgar polls in their secret sauce analysis because they had a history of being so far off the mark. He also said that Trafalgar usually gets in line right before the election so their final polls are in line with the other pollsters. No one talks about how bad a pollster was early in the cycle if they come close to the final result in the end.

(6,991 posts)Trafalgar has been known to be an untrustworthy polling outfit, yet I see their numbers quoted as gold standard in a lot of places
Some great polling outfit. Funded by Dark Money.

I've voted for Murray since she first started running and there's no reason to screwed up with some maggot moron.
