    I haven't looked into their sample. I did look at poll samples during 2016 and correctly predicted twice on national TV that @realDonaldTrump would win though most polls had him down. So I don't think one can necessarily believe or brush off groups of polls or single polls.https://twitter.com/coopeydoop/status/1030856247229079552 …

    Not much. Rasmussen always polls higher for Trump than others. For instance, NAACP poll pegged Trump's approval rating at 21%. Pew Research Center in June had Trump's approval rating among blacks at 14%/ What do you think? https://twitter.com/SharylAttkisson/status/1030815253041430528 …

        LATimes actually had some good polling demographics leading up to the 2016 election. You could see in those numbers that Trump had a great chance to win despite most all #MSM/polling predicting a huge Hillary win.

        Any poll regarding trump will likely poll lower than reality for fear of being called racist. Obama’s polls similarly polled higher for exactly the same reason

        Exactly, it was the most accurate poll in 2016, re: Trump.

        they take polls until they get the rating they're looking for. they target certain eof people. part of liberal news tactics.

        In the last 22 elections, 19 of them the party of the president lost seats in Congress. Almost always happens. I have no doubt liberal media will say it is because of Trump, but when Obama, Clinton, FDR, LBJ lose those seats its because of something else? http://www.presidency.ucsb.edu/data/mid-term_elections.php …

        The NAACP number is earth shattering. 21% is huge.

        But Trump isn't running this election and you have to look at State by State numbers particularly for the Senate. For example Rick Scott -R in Florida is only polling 4% approval among black voters. No Trump effect here.

        All polls make invalidating assumptions, weighting or even not weighting their results by using demographics and predictions of motivation. Rasmussen doesnt buy into much of this, but it is a factor in voting. Trouble is when the guesses are wrong.

        Just look at his rallies. That tells the whole story. If someone is willing to wait in line overnight in 90 degree heat you know there are thousands of more supporters out there who are not.

        Rasmussen is likely voters. True it may be high but also true more likely to benefit from economic growth

        Rasmussen has been labeled "right wing" mostly for being at the center; so definitely pro #Trump if you are looking from the perspective of the "far left" (which doesn't seem to exist in the #MSM lexicon).
