    I’ve stopped believing political polls were anywhere even remotely close to reality since 2016

    There’s strong reason to believe that the polls represented how people actually voted. If the outcome was different, that was due to fuckery.

      I would love to believe that’s not true, but it was very suspicious how Republicans have been overperforming polls mostly in states where they control the election machinery.
