Mathematically they are going to be less than perfect.

Some are skewed one way, others are skewed the other way.

But when you pull them all together like RealPolitics does, you will get a much more accurate number.

Nate Silver even goes the extra mile in ranking and rating the polls to fine tune his forecast. And he's been right.

And btw- You seem to only notice my posts. Only because it's something YOU don't want to see.

Seriously doubt you'll complain if MUTGR posts a Trump leaning poll. Your same argument won't be made.
