2022 midterm polls
#89
(11-09-2022, 12:03 PM)David Horn Wrote: There is no doubt that the polls were less effective than usual, because the actual vote margins were often so close.  I suspect that the typical margin of error is actually a lot larger than pollsters admit, because the underlying theorem used to determine MoE has been so totally violated that the polls are simply best-guesses.

I think the polls worked pretty well for the close senate races, as shown in the table above. Those from stronger blue and red states were less accurate, as the voters reverted to their usual habits, and so the polls didn't make much different there, and Florida sunk deeper and deeper into their swamp. And the hurricanes that they vote for time after time continue to hit them, and they ignore the lesson, preferring to indulge their gaddamm stupid prejudices. We should give up on Florida, and I hope they sink into the sea. I would swear at them more but I'm tired a'swearin'.

The poll predicted the House would be +1 Republican, and some late polls favored Democrats or were even. Quite accurate I would say.
