      And it always has been…

      Yet every election going back decades was within the margin of error of polls.

      Statistics are not new. They’ve been around for a very very long time.

      I admit, I only took one graduate level statistical analysis course, so maybe you’ve got more experience.

      But it really sounds like a bunch of people who don’t know anything about science complaining about science because they don’t like the results…

      Do you know who else does that?
