Reply #13: Polls are irrelevant.. MANY PEOPLE all over the place have VOTED [View All]

so every day the pool of poll-ables gets smaller, and of course the cell-phone only people have been out of the loop too..

Organizations HIRE pollsters..they just don't do it because they love to talk on the phone.. If a republican organization hires a pollster, it does not take a genius to know that they "expect" a certain "result", or they won't be hiring your polling company again...same for dems..

The way questions are worded, the length of the poll & questions, the time of day, the day of the week and obviously, the part of the country all can skew polls to "say" anything the pollster wants them to say...

and these days pollsters are even admitting (bragging?) that they "weight" polls internally, so they are telling us ahead of time, that they are making shit up..
