there is nothing "wrong" with this poll. its a tracking poll and you can get very useful information especially trend lines. every poll has its strengths and weaknesses

i actually like this poll a lot because it asks ppl to estimate probability of voting instead of binary yes or no

Polling fatigue is asking the same question and tracking the same ~2,000 people over time. This isn't a representative sample in any sense.

The people that continually answer these tracking studies tend to be more conservative and follow through with answers over time. It's what they do.

These are the rule followers and will answer out of some duty they feel compelled by.

The other noted problem with LAT poll is that they ask respondents who they voted for in last elecftion and then use that to do some statistical change to the poll based on voter ID, prob is that ppl tend to lie abt who they voted for (more will say they voted for obama cause he won), result is that it benefits reptiles

This and 20% of blacks are both completely realistic things that could totally happen on election day, right trumpmos? After correcting for their obvious sample problems, this poll paints basically a tied race like all the others. It's now 100% what happens in the debates, and given where things were a month ago trumpmos should be delighted they have made it that far back.

it polls the same group every time. it could very well be that the original sample group was skewed towards trump. or, and perhaps its wishful thinking, it could be that this poll is the one that's actually right. tune in in november to find out!

All pollsters weight their results somewhat to make sure their samples match known demographics — the right proportions of men and women, for example, or blacks, whites and Latinos.

The Daybreak poll goes a step further and weights the sample to account for how people say they voted in 2012: It’s set so that 25% of the sample are voters who say they cast a ballot for Mitt Romney and 27% for President Obama. The rest are either too young to have voted four years ago or say they didn’t vote.

The potential problem is that people tend to fib about how they voted. Polls have often found that the percentage of people who say after an election that they voted for the winner exceeds the winner’s actual vote.

If that’s the case this year, then weighting for the vote history would result in slightly too many Republican voters in the sample, which would probably boost Trump’s standing by a point or two.

Unfortunately, there’s no way to know for sure until we can compare the final vote to the poll’s final forecast. Given how long it takes to count all the votes, that answer won’t be available until at least a week after election day.
