S3 E11) Polling Is Trolling, Part 7394

Host Tish Durkin has said it before and will say it again: ignore the polls. They’re basically bin liner. Lest this sound like happy talk to calm the nerves of Biden supporters freaking out over the bad numbers that are sticking to a good president, consider Michigan — where Biden’s numbers may be artificially good. In that swing state's Democratic primary in February, more than 100,000 Michigan voters backed “uncommitted,” and many insist they remain a definite ‘no' on Joe. This isn’t a game ender, but in a tight race, it could be a game changer. Yet this does not show up in public polls, in which Biden’s numbers are the same as they were before the October 7 Hamas attacks. So: beware the polls. Better yet, ignore them.
