Pollsters were wrong. AGAIN. Please explain why.

I can only think of two reasons why a predicted Kamala grand slam instead became a hat trick for Republicans (they now control the white house, senate, and house of representatives).

First possibility : millions of people lied to pollsters.

2nd possibility : those Pollsters lied to us.

Which do you think it was?

Pollsters had her up in Iowa by 3 percent last week. Trump stomped her

@Patriot96 i'm guessing this would be telephone polls. no way people in NY or California are taking planes to Iowa, and knocking on doors.

@SusanInFlorida There has been a massive influx of calis and east coasters moving into rural areas of iowa. Where I currently live in the middle of nowhere north central iowa, housing is now in high demand, coass have skyrocketed, traffic patterns now reflect Los Angeles and New York, accidents have increased tenfold in the past few years, as well as traffic itself. My theory is that they are invading to turn this state blue and change the political and cultural dsmographics left, like what they have done to my Beloved HomeState of Oregon and Washington State, which started in the 90's.

@NativePortlander1970 agreed. i read a WSJ article a while ago that theorized that Texas' jobs boom (luring employers and workers from California) was going to politically transform the state.

the new arrivals had no clue that their high tax/high regulatory acceptance are what makes california unacceptable. they will probably vote for the sorts of policies in Texas, once they settle in.
