Fake slanted poll. If NBC is only givin the Rats +7, its half that in reality, at best. I always add 5 points to the GOP/Trump in any fake news poll.

Rasmussen has it at Dems +3 so thats about right

Amen!

But if he yanks tonight’s TN thread, he needs to be taken behind the woodshed for a proverbial spanking.

“The telephone poll of 1,000 voters, conducted Nov. 1-3,”

Darn, they didn’t call this Hispanic lesbian. pro-choice, low taxes, strong borders democrat voter.

I still have a theory as to what is going to go on, and why, when the election turns out like I believe. And it will explain something else as well.

As cryptic as that all reads!

I’m 50, with a BA, and I guess for NYC I don’t make a heck of a lot.

But then shouldn’t I be voting dem?

Actually. the demographic they are describing has gone dem FOREVER.

That should tell them dems how much of a mess they are right now.

And how out of touch.

The Trump tax cuts have been a HUGE help and we live on Staten island where the commute is long but the cost is about 1/3 of Manhattan and Brooklyn for a home.

So we’re good.

You SHOULD vote Dem because the Trump tax cut took away your high tax state deduction...

There’s no hyperlink to a detailed methodology.

Cooked poll.

A Liberal Media poll showing the Democrats 7-points ahead is as reliable as those in 2016 showing the Wicked Witch comfortably heading to the White House.

Doesn’t cost the GOP any votes they’ve would have won and any angry high-heeled country club RINOs would have already been a lost cause...

And why, as a practical political matter, should the GOP continue to subsidize states that would never vote GOP, beats me.

The New York Times, to their credit, will tell you how many calls were made to get a certain number of responses.

They seem to want about 500 responses, and to get that they have to make anywhere from 10,000 to 50,000 calls.

That response rate is probably typical for all pollsters. Ignoring the additional issue of fudging the R/D/I weighting, statistically how reliable would this sort of response rate actually be?

Probably not very reliable.

White men, especially older, less educated, less affluent ones in small towns and rural areas.

Lol, and what sort of completely accurate descriptions could be written of the primary Dim support groups? But, of course, those descriptions will never be written by the leftist media.

Are “less affluent white men” deplorable dregs who have American flags in front of their homes and own Bibles?

Thought so.
How dare they!
