How did pollsters get Trump, Clinton election so wrong?
Quote:The Los Angeles Times/University of Southern California tracking poll consistently pegged Trump as the leader throughout the final months of the campaign — and to much derision from political pundits.

Arie Kapteyn, director of the University of Southern California’s (USC) Dornsife Center for Economic and Social Research, which jointly runs the poll, said some voters were apparently sheepish about admitting to a human pollster that they were backing Trump. But the L.A. Times/USC poll was based on an internet survey of a recruited group of voters.

Many of the arrogant libs here would really laugh at that LA Times poll and inform us deplorables how ignorant we were to even post it here. Their brilliance on display.

The USC/LA Times poll was wrong (T+3). The facts and figures show this. They were calling the popular vote and were not close (C+2).

without outsized ca, trump wins popular vote by ~2M ...

It wasnt wrong.

I will go over this again for you guys.

In California alone, the republican vote was suppressed by millions of votes. This was because in more than a dozen house races, there was no republican running. And there was no republican in the senate race. That will suppress voter turnout, especially since the republican vote didnt matter in the presidential race.

Libturds want to hang on to the popular vote meme, but Hillary would have lost that easily if the popular vote actually mattered.
