Hey Emily why didn’t you listen to AtlasIntel and Rasmussen. The were the closest pollsters in the last Elections. Actually they predicted exactly what happened this time. No surprise !

Interesting… But I want to know more about WHY Atlasintel got it so right? They were against the trend (but correct) on multiple occasions – notably back in mid-September. After the Harris/Trump debate, it looked to many observers like Trump underperformed in the debate and Harris support was solidifying… but Atlasintel called all the trends going the other way. Now, looking back, I can see the clues were there in the news cycle: The Teamsters declined to endorse Harris, and Trump was visibly getting a grass-roots validation amongst the public in New York… but Atlasintel were finding something measurable that others weren’t finding… Or was it just that everyone else was terrified of straying outside the pollsters’ herd’s narrative?
