In response to "I think a bit of scepticism of polling is fine and warranted. " by Inigo

You're talking about a politician, which I specifically am not doing. I'm discussing methodology.

I missed the 2016 Presidential election, and I cannot stand when I make mistakes. I haven't once dismissed a candidate as viable. Instead, I raise the same questions about polling that I do the inaccuracy of Nielsen ratings. When a system is broken, that's something I notice. You keep injecting your opinions of what you think I'm saying into what I'm actually saying. There's a system in place that no longer works, but the people running said system don't know what else to do. So, they keep using it despite its ineffectiveness. That's the problem I have.
