Aniuska Naveira-Orti :

As usual, expecting to be disappointed tomorrow morning.

Chrissy 🍉 :

I don’t claim any of this negativity

Salt_Mike :

Since 2016 I’ve considered polls to be closer to fan fiction than reality.

🦎 🐡 :

THEY WERE NOT

Jennifer :

I always wonder who they are polling? I’ve never been asked to poll …

matthewdillonwrites :

so the takeaway is... they're polls, so they may be right, may be wrong. GROUNDBREAKING reporting Times, thank you.

Tessa :

UGH every 2 years we go through the SAME thing. STOP LISTENING TO THE POLLS

K. McC :

You misspelled “under”

kr21256 :

I’m not buying into any narrative these days. I’m voting and I’m telling everyone I know to vote. Polls are not any indication anymore.

hi_sweet_B :

You don’t trust your own data?

Deemark :

The last time I listened to the polls, they said Clinton was gonna win. Ever since then the polls have been dead to me.

BlueEyed_Gal :

Polls close at 7pm central time!!

johnnybad007 :

The question is… when were the polls right… not when they were wrong…

Motley1971 :

PROBABLY

jimalfieri7 :

I hope they're right, but how many times have we been disappointed before on Election night!

Eito :

Sid Hatfield :

2024 taught me that we’re living in a nightmare. I just pray that one day we can recover

Winston :

Probably. It’s happened the last several elections so I have zero hope.

Bigtich :

Yeah I don’t trust polls anymore. Traumatizing to do that again.

jjfoggy :

Answer is Yes.

mc 🧜🏼‍♀️ :

stay that way

Angel :

I'm confused

Andrea Cwynar :

I’m not getting my hopes up until this is over. The polls with the last selection were 100% wrong

Gmoney :

50/50 chance their correct. Great

Caroline Fryer :

What about the polls showing Stevens down by 20 but she really came within 1 percent?
