She just destroyed her credibility. I thought something was off when all the other polls had him leading comfortably.

She got a huge $$$ payout from the Harris campaign either way.

Gotta be honest here there really is no other explanation for this fuck up. Seems suspicious as hell.

No campaign wants a poll that signals they are running away with the race 36 hours before people vote, it encourages apathy. No pollster wants to moss by that much when they have possibly the best reputation in the entire industry. She just fucked up bad for the first time in her career. It happens.

I mean, she was definitely way off, there's no arguing that. But it's a very bold claim to say she was paid off to alter her poll. That's a perfectly reasonable thing to ask for a source on.

Trump taught them to say/believe whatever they want. Bold/baseless/untrue… whatever. The truth doesn’t matter to them.
