Political polling has essentially turned into vanity projects, ego trips, and gossip shows akin to Fox's NFL Sunday. It's become more of an entertainment shtick than a legitimate source of news, cwtremo writes.
A New York Times poll revealed that the Democratic candidate was leading the Republican candidate, 44 to 38. Another New York Times poll, taken days before the election, showed the candidates were running about even nationally. The results were horribly wrong. For New York voters, the Republican candidate won 47 to 44. Nationally, the candidates were far from even. The Republican defeated the Democrat 51 to 41.
Every election season, people turn to pollsters to provide them with a statistical analysis regarding the elections. They’ve achieved celebrity status and are talked about as if they’re some divine soothsayers, all the while failing to do their jobs. The reality is often very different from their projections. This year's election, with the"experts" predicting a"Red Wave," was the latest example of this failure.
When the dust settles from the 2022 midterms, the GOP will have between 233-240 House seats – outdoing their total from 1994.
