Democrats appear to have an advantage in November's midterm elections, and Trump is a big reason why according to a new Washington Post-ABC News poll.

All in all, Remains to be seen. This is a poll. And nothing but a poll.

Calm down Charles, remember the poll in November of 2016. People are still crying over that one . Lol. Polls are a false indicator of the true way folks will vote. Because some people understand that this is basically a election for or against trump and don't want to admit to some that they are trump supporters for fear of being falsely labeled a racist. Just like the millions that voted for him in 2016 after Not being included in any poll. The numbers will shock the liberal world again. IMHO.

Article quote:

Some of the doubts are about pollsters’ methods. Do they ask the right questions? Are they manipulating the wording of questions to get the responses they want? And whom did they interview? Some of the doubts are wrapped up in a mistrust of the political parties, marketers, and media giants that pay for the polls.

But it is precisely because of our respect for polling that we are disturbed by many things done in its name. When interest groups commission pollsters to ask leading questions to gather “scientific” proof that the public agrees with whatever demand they are making on government, they demean polling and mislead the public.

Polling is a tool, not a principle. The authors in this issue come neither to praise nor to bury polling. They do, however, acknowledge how important it has become in our democracy. They stress Ronald Reagan’s “trust but verify” rule.

-------------------------

I had a personal experience with a "poll" back in 1978. The Ford Pinto accident/fire happened 20 miles from where I lived. One year later a law suit was filed against Ford. One day after dinner I took a phone call and the person said this was a poll but didn't say for whom. The questions were worded in such a way that it made me seem anti-manufacturer and eventually anti-Ford. I cut the pollster short and said "you're trying to affect a possible civil trial jury" (my mother was a federal court deputy clerk and I was sensitive to this kind of game). The pollster coughed and tried to move in another direction. I told the person I resented what they were trying to do and hung up the phone.

Anytime a President gets elected the opposite party has an advantage in the following election. The House and Senate almost always flips. Hell, even under Obama the deep Liberal state even elected Scott Brown into a seat the Democrat's and Kennedy family held for over 60 years.

Clinton did trounce him. By nearly 3 million votes. The will of the people who voted at the time wanted Clinton to be president. And whether the right wants to admit it or not, It was handed to Trump by the Electoral College.

This pissed off millions of people. It made many feel like their vote didn't matter or count. Just my opinion, I think that's why come November, it's gonna be a blue sweep. Just about every which way Trump turns his head he will see a Democrat. It remains to be seen.

Lol. Anytime liberals lose they always have a problem with the rules of the game. The electoral college is the way we select our president. So keep counting your almost wins if it makes you feel better. Just another participation trophy for the losers..

President Trump is not part of the Washington deep State. Trump has rolled back many of the policies that were detrimental to America and deep stater's are out to derail him no matter what it takes. Notice Russiagate is no longer focused on Trump colluding with Putin. That who subject is buried and they are looking for ANYTHING to accuse the president with.

Again: GIVE US HARD FACTS, NOT JUST UNDOCUMENTED ACCUSATIONS. When the media comes out with a new accusation (about every two weeks) I ignore them because they are Fact-less. The media is, also, loosing their credibility.

The CBS Sunday morning version of Full Measure With Sharyl Attkisson had a panel of four reporters who discussed this very subject and stated that the American public is fast loosing it's faith in the major news media reporting.

I think most government investigations, in the course of law, HAVE TO HAVE some documentation and evidence to proceed ....


what it will prove or disprove is the only question.

The same pollsters had Clinton winning in 2016.

We all saw how that worked out.



Perhaps, if the pollsters wait until AFTER an election,
they might stand a slightly better chance of accuracy.
