Quote:But that is the point, JW.


Texas should not even be a swing state. The fact that it's even in play should be very alarming.


Wisconsin and Pennsylvania, even Michigan were and still are in play as expected.


To have Texas be this close for republicans is as worrisome as trump leading by 1 or tied in California.


If trump was close in California I'd be pm'ing Eric on good deals for bomb shelters...


So yeah, the fact that Texas is so close on this one poll should be off putting.


But it's still only one poll, and could be an outlier...

It is an outlier because its the only poll with such results, but it shouldn't even be in consideration as a valid poll because it is unscientific. Regardless, don't put credence in any polling done, especially not this one.


Polls are weighted, skewed, or unskewed by the poll publisher, allowing them to use out-dated or biased methods to prop up the person they favor (or bring down the person they dont). Most pollsters are also owned or work in conjunction with media outlets that have clear and obvious agendas. It is why Brexit was so far off.
