I'd rather be underestimated by the polltakers than by the voters.
According to a CNN poll, Trump nearly doubled his support from March. Actually, he just combed his March numbers over his current ones.
I know that a lot of people love to say that polls are wrong or don't matter, and from time to time they are - it depends on who they are polling.
Like any poll, it depends on the ethnicity of the person asking the questions and the nature of the questions.
Opinion polls are not worth the paper they are written on, in my view, through the conference season. They don't settle down again until November.
Exit polls have gone notoriously wrong in the past.
God created astrologers to make pollsters look accurate.
Do you ever get the feeling that the only reason we have elections is to find out if the polls were right?
I'm a believer in the polls, by the way. Rarely do you see a poll that's very far off.
I generally believe in polls. Scientific polls are accurate.
Sometimes you will hear me say right on the air, 'You just cited a poll that is not even part of Real Clear Politics,' which is an average, an aggregate. Yours is seeming to be an outlier. Give me the name of that poll and the date that it was taken. I will say it right on the air.
When you do a computerized poll, where people are comfortable, Donald Trump vote goes up very dramatically. And I think people don't realize the effort by the elite media, the totally dishonest effort to submerge him, has had an effect.
Poll results published with a clear byline for the research reflect a higher degree of confidence in the survey.
I haven't trusted polls since I read that 62% of women had affairs during their lunch hour. I've never met a woman in my life who would give up lunch for sex.
The national polls are distorted. To get a national sample, they rely too much on Hispanics from New York and California, which is where large populations are but also where most of the radical Hispanics are.
If the state polls are right, then Mr. Obama will win the Electoral College. If you can't acknowledge that after a day when Mr. Obama leads 19 out of 20 swing-state polls, then you should abandon the pretense that your goal is to inform rather than entertain the public.
