This is clearly a failure of methodology and/or biased polling. The problem is not shy voters or purposeful deception. The people doing these polls are obviously doing it wrong. I've been wondering about this too. Could this election be the death of the "value" or trustworthiness of polls? How are they even conducted? Calling landlines? Many don't even have those anymore and with caller-ID, they won't answer unknown calls--I know I never do. Link to comment
ColoradoHusk Posted November 4, 2020 Share Posted November 4, 2020 Biden now leads in enough states to have the electoral vote. Does Trump still want to stop counting votes? 2 Link to comment
knapplc Posted November 4, 2020 Share Posted November 4, 2020 OK, wait a second. SOUTH DAKOTA has approved recreational weed? And Nebraska can't even get it on the ballot? 1 Link to comment
teachercd Posted November 4, 2020 Share Posted November 4, 2020 Biden -400 on my site I mean, this is a lock, right? Link to comment
knapplc Posted November 4, 2020 Share Posted November 4, 2020 trump told us how this would go. He even told us he'd declare victory on election night (he did). He told us the vote would change over the course of the few days after the election, and it is. And Biden's winning, because all the votes counted late are all the Dem votes cast in early voting. 1 Link to comment
teachercd Posted November 4, 2020 Share Posted November 4, 2020 Well, Trump is up by 10.7% in Penn, with 79% in...so Biden needs to win 76% of the remaining votes? Hmmm. is that right? Nevada done counting until tomorrow at 9am. That -400 is looking nice. Link to comment

The problem is cell phones and technology have changed the polling game and they haven't adjusted methodologies to address it. Link to comment

TGHusker Posted November 4, 2020 Share Posted November 4, 2020 Last night I was thinking - I need to find a 'eat crow' gif for my Biden Cabinet thread. Now, I'm thinking - it is alive and well. This is now old news, but it points to how important NE 2nd district was. From FoxNews election site: Link to comment

From FoxNews election site: As someone who still has family and friends still in Omaha, and most (if not all) of them voted for Trump, I was so glad to see District 2 go to Biden. It was predicted as a huge point, and it turned out it probably will be. I also saw that Pennsylvania considered splitting their electoral votes by Congressional District in 2011. That would have added to the interest last night/today. 1 Link to comment

GSG Posted November 4, 2020 Share Posted November 4, 2020 Everything went pretty well here in Colorado. We shot down a poorly put together abortion ban where all people see is the 22-weeks number and freak out cuz they're too lazy to read the whole thing. We now have paid family leave for small businesses. We lowered income taxes. Raised taxes on tobacco and vaping bulls#!t. We might be reintroducing gray wolves to our state The only real loss in the state was one of our districts elected a gun-humping, Q-Anon-quoting, psycho who doesn't have any education past her GED to be US representative 2 Link to comment
