Poll watchers explain this.

[Tahuyaman]

Those who place their fath in the various polls, please explain how four credible polls can reach four different conclusions using the exact same raw data?

Tell me why any poll should be given any credibility?

Weighted math. Some pollsters use the gobblygook system of metric determination and some pull the numbers straight from their anus.

All pollsters were were given the exact same data. None of them pulled numbers out of their anus or even thin air.

I would like to see one of those who assigns credibility to polls address this.

It's simply a matter of who the pollster contacts. The mix may be heavier for one candidate than the other in a given poll. Surely you cons who know all, can figure that out. Think about it and let it sink in.

For crying out loud, the pollsters didn't contact anyone. They were fed the exact same data. They all came up with quite different results. Are you unable to read the link from the NY Times which provided the data?

I confess I did not read the link. My reply was based upon typical telephonic sampling polls.

Polls serve the sole purpose of shaping public opinion.

You shpuld have read the link so you could comment on the actual subject instead of something out of thin air.

I would not argue against that.
