Correct.  And he's a snippet from the original NBC poll:

 

Headlines, baby!!

Quote

Crucially, Mr Trump’s lead in key swing states including Florida, Iowa, Michigan, Minnesota, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin remains at 4 percent by 47 percent 43 percent.

This gives a projected Electoral College split of 320 to Trump and 218 to Biden.

 

Whoops?

 

Go popular vote! You're done, Drumpf!

They are both outliers which is why I posted the IBD/TIPP poll, but for some reason the MSM is focused on the WSJ/NBC Poll as gospel.

Maybe because the IBD poll came out later than the other one and there has been less time to discuss it?

I felt there'd be better discussion if it was the IBS poll.

Yeah, that is the reason.  Why anyone in the MSM would put any weight in a registered voter poll at this point in the election cycle is beyond me, but for some reason they like the outcome of the poll.

Well, there are actually more registered Democrats than Republicans in this country, so they should be polling more Democrats proportionately.

How would that work exactly?

Um, by having a proportionately larger sample of Democrats represented in the results of a poll?

I did calculus but I have about zero recollection of it. Al does calculus for fun, which makes me question his sanity.

What I should have said was arithmetic, what a concept.

How would you dictate representative proportions in a sample?
