Did the polls get it wrong again?

The Democrats’ surprisingly strong showing in the midterm elections has raised a familiar question: Did the pollsters get it wrong again?

Heading into Nov. 8, polls from across the industry gave Republicans the clear edge in battleground races, as well as on the generic ballot. The data bolstered the belief among pundits that a red wave was on the rise.

Nope. We got it wrong by thinking that the Commies would not steal another election as they did in 2020.

The polls were wrong in individual races, such as Masters in AZ and Laxalt in NV. But the Rs generic lead in the ballot was actually understated - they ended up getting six million votes more than the Dems or a lead of about five percent, most polls showed 2 percent.

Maybe people dont trust the republican party when it is full of rhinos. They are tired of being told that the repub is at least better than voting for the liberal only to see no action from the rhino that got voted in.

After the 2020 election, I figured this one would be a litmus test for me to determine if the voting would swing to becoming less corrupted.

It failed the test. Voting is a waste of time in 21st century US. Sad but true. God’s not finished with us yet. Be prepared.

It’s RINO which stands for Republican In Name Only

Rhino is the animal, short for Rhinoceros.

Rush Limbaugh spoke about a point in time in which the left would see to it that elections would no longer be held. However, he didn’t think it was something that would happen in the near term. That day may be closer than Rush (and the rest of us) thought.

Nope...Mail In Voting, Drop Boxes, Ballot Harvesting(all things Florida got rid of) and corrupt election officials(Arizona, Nevada, Georgia..again) did it again.

"Nope. We got it wrong by thinking that the Commies would not steal another election as they did in 2020."

A professional statistician would notice the anomaly immediately. When over a dozen polls fail to approximate the outcome, it becomes obvious that the polls assumed an unbiased fair election. The polls don't take in to consideration widespread, industrial scale cheating by the Democrat/Communist machine.

The polls were not wrong.

The pollsters are full of $hit.

1. They don’t call cellphones. Many people are on cells only these days.

2. The pollsters don’t consider voter fraud which is stealing seats in AZ and NV. And PA. How else you think a loser like Fetterman was elected to the Senate?

There could be a sizable .gov grant in modeling a predictive cheat poll. Well, maybe not.
