You can’t have results when one of the top candidates had their name left off at least one survey.

That is truly humiliating for a respected paper.

that Selzer is greatly overrated ….She claimed Trump would carry Iowa by 5% ..Cruz won by 3% ..I have never heard of this type of zaniness going on ...The poll now has no validity .. Can you believe Buttigieg's name wasn't included on one of the surveys ? ...That is unbelievable

what will those that crave polling information do now???? All we have to fall back on is the other 5000 polls in Iowa that have been taken over the last year plus of the top candidates devoting a million hours to that state!!!!!!!
