VP Kamala Harris’s campaign senior adviser, David Plouffe, admitted their internal polling never reflected the public polls. (snip) Plouffe said the campaign’s internal polling never had Harris ahead of Trump.
“We didn’t get the breaks we needed on Election Day,” he said. “I think it surprised people, because there was these public polls that came out in late September, early October, showing us with leads that we never saw.”

So, you lied to get more votes? Okay, but you're still counting ballots to reduce the spread of the popular vote. So, you're still lying.

"Polls" were not necessary. You only need part of a brain to see reality.

The purpose of releasing information that is contrary to internal polls is to gaslight the public into accepting a fraudulently stolen election. That scheme succeeded for the Democrats in 2020 because they had additional fraud opportunities due to the COVID emergency.

When polls are used to create false confidence to encourage big donors to think they are on the winning side - you get surprised and blindsided. The "breaks" you needed on Election Day were unfortunately illegal and caught before they were implemented. Dummass.

So the question is, WHY is internal polling more accurate than external polling? If there are honest standards for polls, shouldn't they apply to all polls. I don't care if people getting private polls are willing to be lied to but wouldn't it be most important that polls released to the public are the most accurate and honest? How do we know which polls are reliable if the standards used to generate them are, "whatever"? Apparently, for the last 3 elections, the standards applied to generate polls about Trump followed no reasonable standards because they were all wrong. Either that or the whole polling process is useless because they can't figure out how to accurately capture public sentiment.
It seems polls are used mostly to DRIVE public sentiment instead of measure it. They are, in effect, a piece of political ads. "Look! Your candidate supports NNN but POLLS show that people don't like NNN. You shouldn't support that candidate!"
We all know how trustworthy political ads are.
We just need to recognize that the polls are no better unless proven otherwise.

We deplorables, we Hitler lovers knew all along the polls were full of dung when day after day and week after week we were presented with polls that showed Kamala up, or the election being close. Every news organization lived and died by the polls. Even a somewhat safe Fox news had Kamala up or the election close, but we knew the polls were full of it. We could feel it, and while Fox people continue to talk about how the democrats need to get out and talk to people, it seems they need to start taking some of their own advice.

Let's never forget the Iowa poll which claimed there was a surge to Kamalot at the last moment. It was a top news story on the Sunday before the election. And it was a complete lie.

Because public polling is just propaganda and cover for cheating.

What we need now is an honest unauthorized biography of Kamala. From her birth, upbringing, education, time in Canada, flings with Willie, actual convicts against Blacks, etc.

How anyone could see or be a part of Trump's gatherings and not know he was going to win must have had some inside information that "the fix is in", but, fortunately for the country, the Trumpsters outfoxed the fixers!

Democrats: Broken beyond repair. It happened when they decided to have a second Biden term. That's when they needed to jettison him. By the time they did, it was far too late. Inflation, the border, and their handling of 1/6 did not help. Their policies were all wrong. They need to stop doubling down and come up with new policies and remake themselves.

$1.4 billion dollars in 107 days which ONLY enriched the consultants who get from the "cut" they get on the TV and Radio ad buys.
The Democrats literally lied to their target audience and then want to attack Republicans with nasty, fowl comments to create hostility.
