The "Likely Voter" Models for These Polls Need To Be Adjusted |
|
Those models are based on historical voting, but I think that this election is atypical for many reasons. I think that we will see the largest turnout in U.S. history.

1. They can't be accurate if they leave out new voters and cell phone numbers. |

2. I'm sure they are totally underestimating the "young" vote and the AA vote |
|
There's no way they can have models that are accurate for this election. So, I say, "You are correct, sir!"

4. I like it they way it is |
|
Since we are, in my reading, still just winning the EC, the fact that the actual on the ground results should be far better than the polling might just neutralize or even overwhelm the cheating factor. Better to do adequate in your practice, then really perform at game time, ya know?
