Real Clear Politics To Rank Polls by Accuracy

RPC

RCP will rank pollsters by their performance in recent elections, and will of course evaluate their performance in the 2022 mid-term election in just under a month. RCP’s goal here is simple. Accuracy is the foundational bedrock of public trust. To that end we will be evaluating pollsters almost exclusively on one metric – accuracy in reflecting the actual results. More

  1. Good idea. Should rate the polls by level of gaslighting involved. Take this for an example of quality gaslighting: Theburningplatform posted a very good piece describing the antics of P4yp4l and the $2500 fine p4yp4l wished to impose. P4yp4l “crossed every line” the burning platform said. At the end of the post, theburningplatform included a “DONATE” button, to help fund the burning platform. The problem is, the link, wait for it:

    SENT YOU TO P4YP4L TO MAKE YOUR DONATION !!!! wtf?

  2. RCP won’t be measuring accuracy.
    They’ll be measuring inaccuracy.

    I guess they don’t want to sound overly negative even though some of those pollsters are pretty scummy.

  3. This is a warning shot to 90% of the pollsters who are in the pocket of Demonrats to stop the automatic 10 point bias towards Demonrats no matter what the subject of the poll is.

    If you subtract the 10% automatic bias you will see how close the polls are to the actual historical outcome.

    RCP has known this for a long time, I guess theur reputation was on the line this midterm.

    They know the current polls are hoping and copium and are pure shit, so they are backed into a corner.

    It will be interesting to see if any truth finally gets out in the next 3 weeks.

  4. Poll practices are just part of the Propaganda machine. The further away from election day they are, the more gaslighting they can get away with. As it closes in on election day, the polls “tighten up” so they can preserve their so-called credibility!

  5. Real Clear anything is almost always to the left. Gave up on them years ago. There is no reason to trust them. Just another branch of the DNC. Why bother following them? You already know what they’re going to say.

  6. Whenever a pollster calls me, I give honest answers to their questions. But when they ask for demographic information, age sex, race etc., I give them the attributes of the last character I saw on TV.
    Just for fun, I also like to see how long I can keep telemarketers on the phone before they hang up on me.

  7. There is no way a poll can be accurate these days if there is any way to ID the person contributing to the poll now that democrats are fully committed to destroying average people for wrong-think.

    Someone calls me up by name with a political poll I hang up. Bet most conservatives are the same way.
