This does not line up with any previous actual voting patterns. So how does this polling firm account for this sudden change in voting habit? Seems like they themselves would question their polling methods with this crazy outlier as a result.

But keep in mind folks these polls are based on if the election was held today meaning the time the poll was taken.Well the election isn't today of the poll it's more than a year out.
