I think the goal is to run these bogus polls for the next couple of weeks, to see how much impact they can have with depressing/changing the vote.
Some people will actually change their vote based on this propaganda. Especially in the swing states - they will want to ride with the winner (unfortunately).
I think towards mid October they will change samples and close these party ids but it may be too late. We could have lost 1-2% which could hugely impact race.
