DU: "All polls are worthless". Also DU: "Joe Manchin..."

"was going to lose anyway -- just look at the polls!"

Love ya, DU, but this kinda stuff just makes me laugh.

1. Huh...so the fact that, out of ??? thousands...

of people…

that there are those whose opinion differs from others…

somehow surprises and amuses you.

Wow.

Question: have you ever been in a group larger than say 5, or even 3, of supposedly like minded people and asked their opinions on anything more controversial than whether the earth is flat?

2. Wouldn't have it any other way, I want to hear and read different opinions

We should not all think alike, that is the democratic part.

3. All the polls are wrong,...

except the ones that confirm my beliefs.

4. The polling profession does have a problem (it was way off in 2020, 2022 and will be again 2024)

5. Are you sure it's the same posters saying both things?

Because, in my case, I don’t take much stock in polls no matter the situation. Some may be more or less accurate but they don’t affect how I approach elections. I just donate, volunteer, and get out the vote regardless of what the polls say.
