    About time - their polls have been divorced from reality for some time. While previously “leaning right” would be a fair description of a moderate bias, in the last few years they completely went off the deep end.

      To be clear how off the deepend they went, they released a poll after the election “proving” that Kari Lake won the AZ Governor’s race by 8 points. The article implies the final stray was when they released a poll showing that 1 out of 12 Americans have been paid to vote in a certain way (or at least received an offer).

        The idea that 27.7 million people were offered money to influence their vote and nobody else heard about it at all is absolutely insane.

    I mean, politics aside, good call if it’s an outlier. Especially if it skews the average of the polls.

    They have been absurd for a very long time.

    As a reminder - Real Clear Politics went completely off the rails a few years back.
