    You should try stomping around the room and yelling at the screen.

    ?

    Polls are shit. Only one poll counts.

    If Clinton had paid attention to them, trump might not have won.

    Even the article you posted has a self-inserted bias.

    With what part do you disagree? They post all the methodology and results. Or are you just “this person works in polling so I can’t trust them despite them laying out everything for me to see!”

    You haven’t presented a logical thought just “I DISLIKE POLLS” which is pretty silly.

    You may not like what the polls say but that doesn’t mean they aren’t valid kiddo. As you grow up, you’ll realize that lots of things that are unpleasant are still true no matter how much we wish otherwise. Throwing a tantrum doesn’t change the validity of polling.

        I’ve read they’ve been dropped, haven’t seen a response from Silver. Is this a social media thing?

        Edit: Though if your trying to argue that polling is inaccurate because Nate Silver has an issue with what his former outfit is doing, ooooooooh boy.

        That’d be as dumb as saying rockets don’t actually wor because, most of the scientists who did the pioneering work were working for the literal Nazis!
