Major Conservative Poll Cited by Media Secretly Worked With Trump Team

[Inderpland]

A major polling organization is reportedly giving Donald Trump’s campaign previews of its results before the public sees them.

 

'On Thursday, American Muckrakers posted about emails it received detailing how the conservative-leaning Rasmussen Reports, which claims to be nonpartisan, shared polling results with Trump advisers and campaign officials like Dan Scavino, Susie Wiles, and John McLaughlin. The advisers, Rasmussen, and the nonprofit organizations that pay it for polling are violating tax and election laws, according to American Muckrakers.'

Prepare to see the Republicans flood the zone in October with bogus polls showing Trump with a big lead.

 

@illisdean will be very happy.

Ask me if I'm surprised about the above report regarding the ever-Trump supporting/leaning Rasmussen operation. And needless to say I'm not.

 

Just another part of the right-wing establishment that portrays themselves as "news" organizations or impartial pollsters when in fact they're merely pro-Trump propagandists.

FiveThirtyEight gave Rasmussen a C+ rating before it excluding Rasmussen from its poll tracking. Rasmussen is not a member of the National Council on Public Polls or a supporter of the American Association for Public Opinion Research's Transparency Initiative.

That would be counterproductive.  Republicans seeing a big lead would then be less likely to vote since it's all "in the bag".

Not their intention. Them and Trafalgar are outliner pollsters working for Republicans.

84% lean to Republicans Trafalgar

Flailing trying to stir up some enthusiasm as in last resort.

Counterproductive is a very bigglier word, unlikely to be in what passes as a thought process in this campaign.

 

More likely, they need polls which "show" Trump as winning, to back up the inevitable torrent of protests and law suites which will be launched if he in fact loses.

That sounds, to me very much like Rasputin the Russian monk. I wonder if there is a connection in there somewhere, to the Kremlin.

Although democracy IS the best system, there is a huge risk in trusting the voters. Fully 32% of voters voted for a full on trotskyite program in the UK in 2017 and 2019. Unreal. In the USA, the public elected 

Donald Trump as president and may well do so again. In Austria yesterday, the largest party were the Proto fascists at the polls. Chileans voted for Salvador Allende in 1972 and his idiotic socialism led to a revolution of a right wing nature and the proto fascism of Pinochet. Democracies really can screw it up!!

Wow.. now you are starting to sound like NBC and CBS. 

What harm is there in telling what the polls say before the public sees it. As long as there is no fouls play in changing the numbers. It is harmless.

I also don't see any significant benefit to it.

In other news, Silver Bulletin is now classifying Rasmussen Reports as an intrinsically partisan (GOP) pollster because of a credible report of explicit coordination with the Trump campaign, including leaked emails encouraging the Trump campaign to pay for its polls via third-party sponsors. This is way out of line for any pollster that could plausibly be called non-partisan. However, this doesn’t have much impact on the model because Rasmussen already had a strong GOP-leaning house effect that the model was accounting for.

Pollsters: Don’t be so sure Trump will outperform our surveys

Clue to non-US citizens here. We do not want illegal immigrants. We do want DEI. We do not want higher taxes. We do not want violent illegal immigrant gangs, we have enough gangs. 

Hit YT for 5 minutes on Immigrant Gangs.
