I'm still not a believer of polls...have not been for several years. Partly due to my marketing background where polls were sometimes requested by a client for them to use in their marketing campaigns. It always worked backwards to get the results the corporation wanted so the questions were skewed as were the target audience. Political polls may vary a bit, but probably not too much. Also, I keep hearing the number of Democrats over Republicans polled. Lastly, the medium these polls are gathered...who answers their phones anymore, or if done online, are the questions being answered honestly? Guess we'll find out if pollsters have a career left after November 3rd. Personally, if it were my career, I'd start working on my Plan B.
