Yes, the polls were wrong.
What good is a poll if its 10% off? I'm not talking odds, I'm talking polls. When you have claim a 2-3% margin of error and the real result is a 10% off, I would call that poll "wrong." Yes, that happened. 10% off, 7% off, and more. It's somewhere in this thread if you want to find it. When poll is wrong by 2-3x their claimed margin of error, how would you describe that poll? WRONG.

If Trump loses, I'm not going to fly to Canada. I'm already here [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
I'll retrace the numbers to figure out what happened. Instead of burying my head and moving on like the 2016 pollsters. I determine my quality of life far more than the government - life will go on. I won't Burn Loot or Murder like the left seems to be okay with. I asked earlier (and got no real response) but I will ask again. What have the pollsters changed since 2016 to improve their polling accuracy? Also, RCP, FiveThirtyEight, CNN, etc. had Hillary-Trump odds at approximately 90-10 close to election day [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Odds are not the same as polling data. Odds are based off modeling the polling data. And there was no significant modeling that gave Trump only a 1-10 shot before the 2016 election. | |||

My prediction is with cancel culture, political violence (even cases of political murder / attempted murder), and MSM rhetoric against Trump and his supporters, the polls will be off by a lot again this year. The rhetoric hasn't gotten better, it's gotten worse. "Hey I punch Trump supporters in the face. Are you voting for Trump this year?" "Hey do you have 20 minutes to talk to a stranger over the phone about politics?" Cmon jack.
