The entire MSM had Hillary Clinton winning by a landslide. How many polls were submitted to the PEOPLE by practically ALL the MSM? Hundreds? Thousands? And they were all WRONG!!! Can you say "propaganda"? Media bias? Polls can be skewed, and most were definitely tainted in the 2016 Presidential election. For every Republican polled, two or three Dems were polled. That's how they got the skewed results they were seeking in the hope of convincing the PEOPLE that Trump had no chance. So, be wary of polls in general, citizens.

For public consumption polls are primarily designed to drive opinions not measure them.

"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us."

It’s 4 am. I think the poll disappeared by the same spirits who steal socks when you do laundry.

Anyway, welcome, @Timothy Dennis  0005a
