Pollster on CNN Defends Pollsters Failing to Predict Trump Win: They ‘Actually Did Pretty Good This Time Around’

RUSH EXCERPT:

SOLTIS ANDERSON: "I come today to defend my industry, the polling industry. After this election I know there are many Americans who feel surprised that Donald Trump swept all seven battleground states but if you looked at most of the public polling averages they did show the race very close. The polls will probably wind up being off by about 1 to 2 points under counting Trump‘s vote and that means we need to figure out — we tried a lot of things to make sure we capture Trump voters. Why do we still not get that final 2%? that‘s pretty good when nobody is picking up the phone, nobody wants to say what they think. I think pollsters actually did pretty good this time around."
