2020 Polls and the Future of Polling It's curious, at the very least.  In a couple years, when we look back at 2020, we're going to see clearly what seems to be unfolding this weekend: that despite suppression poll after suppression poll, PDJT will score a huge victory over Biden and the Socialists.  And the future of polling (and its significance) is perilously close to collapsing. We see huge attendance at rallies for POTUS and virtually nothing at Biden rallies yet up to about two weeks ago, the polls would have had you believe that a Trump victory on November 3rd was folly.  And as we get closer to November 3rd, pollsters began ruminating about their future should they be as wrong this year as they were in 2016.  They began talking about 'shy Trump voters' and the hidden vote for the President.  What seems obvious to POTUS supporters is that there are unprecedented displays of support for PDJT but scant excitement or support for Biden and that is the true measure of support for the opposing candidates - not the number of Hollyweird glitterati or the NBA/NFL/MLB luminaries tweeting their disdain for PDJT.  The narrative seems to be shifting this weekend before the election to 'soften the blow' of a successful reelection campaign - that there is a large hidden vote that pollsters have missed. I think that the major polling organizations have looked at the tea leaves and learned that no MAGA supporter is being deterred by suppression polls.  I believe that despite getting paid out the wazoo for slanted polling data, they have quietly discussed amongst themselves that they are cutting their own throats by continuing Democrat-centric suppression polls.  Frank Luntz said it last week: if the polls are as wrong again this year as they were in 2016, it will be the end of the polling industry; no one will believe them again.  I believe that is the reason for the shift. One last observation: in 2016, HRC campaign committee canceled a huge fireworks display planned for NYC harbor.  They canceled it the Saturday before the Tuesday election.  They knew there would be no victory because internal polls showed a much different picture than external polls.  The cancellation was the 'tell'.   While there will be no fireworks display to cancel by the Biden campaign this year (because that would be past Joe's bedtime),  the pollsters' last-minute hedging of their predictions is providing the 'tell' this time. Anyone else feeling the same way?
