About polling

[tridim]

One of two options have to be true IMO..

1. Polling is flawed and inaccurate.
2. Polling is mostly accurate, but they want us to think it's flawed.

I would go with option 1, but exit polling had always been accurate before 2000. Networks used exit polling to call states before a single precinct had reported, and they were never wrong. What changed? If all polling is flawed, we cannot trust polls ever again, for anything. Approval polls, right track/wrong track, etc. That's very scary.

Option 2 is probably more in line with reality, although it's equally as scary.
