Do you think the Presidential Polls are SKEWED?

I'm sure some are, but by and large I believe most pollsters try for a good cross section of the population.

Definitely

Of course you guys have to BELIEVE they are (with absolutely no proof), because they show that your delusions are... well... delusional.

Each and every one, yes ma'am, I do.

The only poll that counts is the one in November.

Polls are not worth a bucket of warm Texas Republican's.

And if don’t skew them in the proper direction and you are President you can do this:

Gallup Sued by DOJ Over Unfavorable Poll Numbers for Obama

Senior Obama Campaign adviser David Axelrod reportedly contacted The Gallup Organization to discuss the company’s research methodology after their poll’s findings were unfavorable to the President. After declining to adjust their methodology, Gallup was named in an unrelated lawsuit by the DOJ.



Axelrod took to Twitter to direct people to an article by the National Journal’s Ron Brownstein suggesting a flaw in Gallup’s methodology. Brownstein compared Gallup’s demographic sampling predictions to previous election exit polls as well as contemporaneous research released by Pew, CNN/ORC and ABC/WaPo.

The heart of the Obama camp complaint lies with varying predictive models for 2012 turnout. Gallup had predicted a lower minority turnout, effecting Obama’s margin against Romney.

Very intentionally by the left.

Mitt is winning.... no doubt.... Axlerod and O Team pushing cooked polls on media...
and our dumbass media buys it.... hello...tell coal miners they are going to vote for O?
Hello..bark

repubes say this every year

I am always amazed how they can be so different in the same area.

So many polls these days leave out Johnson and others. Those numbers can make a huge difference! So skewed for sure!

Whatdayou mean skewed? As in deliberately misleading? Yup. I wouldn't be at all surprised. How can you tell when Obama is lying? When his mouth is open.

Is water wet? Is the sky blue?

The proof that the polls are correct are easy to see. RealClearPolitics lists all the polls, and they take the averages of all those polls, and those averages have been very accurate in the last two Presidential elections. In the 2008 election, the RCP averages was 0.3% off from the final results of the election.

The RCP averages in the 2004 election was 0.9% off from the final results of the election.

The data is right there, and those that don't believe the data are suffering from a serious case of DENIAL.

They will never believe the polls are accurate because they CANNOT believe their opinions might be wrong.

Yea, if the polls showed Romney leading by 5 or 6 points they would be all over them posting every update.

Sure would. And they would mock any liberals who suggested that the polls were fixed. They'd be right to do so. Anyone who thinks every polling organization is biased has more than just a few screws loose.

I am shocked at the latest Quinnipiac University polls released today, which are usually fairly accurate. They show President Obama with a 10% lead in Ohio, and a 9% lead in Florida. I used to think this election was going to be close within 4 or 5 points, but now I believe that the President will win reelection with a greater than 5% margin. The RCP electoral map shows President Obama with 265 to Romney's 191, as Ohio has just been put into the "leans Democratic" column.

Hmm... I dunno about that one. Seems like an outlier to me, but we'll see when the next set of polls comes out for the rest of the pack.

JUICED! DARN RIGHT! THOSE POLL NUMBERS ARE ON "THE MOST POWERFUL STERIODS AVAILABLE!" CHEATING FOOLS! THEY BEEN MESSAGING THOSE NUMBERS SO BAD, FOR SO LONG, THEY SLID RIGHT OFF THE TABLE, OUT THE WINDOW, INTO THE STREET! -"Honk-Honk, watch it Buddy!"- *(ROMNEY/RYAN 2012') -"Fair, honest, reliable!"-

There is no doubt about it, to me. Most polling companies are left leaning, regardless of what they might claim. However, heard earlier today, on the TV that rural voters almost evenly split between Republican and Democrat in 2008, but that now Romney has a 14 point lead among the rural voters. http://www2.ohio-votes.com/ne...

Fraudulent would be more like it...

I heard that honest poll has Romney up by 8% points R/R 2012

Well duh especially Obie gone bananas

Without a doubt!

Yup

Most everything is skewed. This whole country is a lie. The United Slaves of America. Even the unemployment is much higher than "official" government numbers will admit to.

LOVED YOUR POST..and I totally agree!

Thank you,very much.

Sure. Depends on who has conducted the poll.

I think SOMETHING is wrong. There is no way that there can be so many idiots in America!!!! I think Americans STILL value freedom!

I think there can be. Remember when Nancy Pelosi said we would have to pass the bill before we can read it? Yes, the Republicans understood the problem with that. The left twirled their hair, went back to watching Oprah and continued to complain about the racist, selfish Republicans. Not much has changed in that regard.

Yes, definitely.

Bhaahahahahahahahaahhahahhaha... that almost caused a tear to come to my eye...Bahahahaha

The only poll that I really like is Rasmussen, they were the ones that predicted Obama to win in 2008 and their margins were correct, the others are heavily sampled with democrats.

Very much so!!

Yes, they are skewed with more Democrats than Republicans and fewer Independents
than there is are in the population........ Many of them use the 2008 voting turn-out
as a guide for numbers of Ds&Rs; the poll, and we all know 2008 is nothing like this
election.

That is one sick point of view. It must suck to be U.
