A culture in chaos cannot be charted or predicted.

It's not the pollsters. It's the difficulty of pretending that the clients requesting the polls (the politicians and media) aren't the problem.

He’s right. The pollsters overestimated his support.

The pollsters who depend on phone solicitations will get progressively less accurate.

Those who use AI-based searches of peoples' internet surfing patterns will get progressively more accurate.

I actually am surprised he didn’t do better in Iowa. So much for the college students being behind him.

often there are very few people under 40 in the poll

I thought most of Cruz's followers were aged religious followers that tended to be highly educated. (ie. those that still have home phones). I imagine it is harder to poll those that don't have home phones (and change numbers every other year). Internet polling is a thing, but I imagine there is few older folks (college educated) that bother with doing them since they require you join these poll groups that dole you out rewards for filling them out.

That leave having to go door to door in some place that is not NYC with those unwashed rural dwellers. /s

The Nevada caucus should be interesting.

I can’t wait for the time when I can open my mailbox again without cringing.

I’m doing my part to make polls inaccurate. When polled I answer every other question with a lie.

I had occasion to sit next to some political consultants at a bar recently. We struck up a conversation. I told them my strategy, and they realized that if even one or two folks use this approach out of a typical statistical pool, it amplifies the error greatly - and this can’t be discovered until the poll is shown to be wrong.

Just doing my part.

Rnd Paul did win the Iowa caucus in a parallel universe (the one where the Dave Clark Five were the ‘60s top supergroup).
