Carville: Trump Underpeforms in Polls and Overperforms in Elections

‘I’m saying traditionally, he under-polls, traditionally’

EXCERPT:

CARVILLE: "The other thing is, Trump traditionally, when he’s on the ballot, chronically under-polls. All right? And so they came back late in Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania in 2020, and it showed Biden winning these states seven, eight points."
MAHER: "Under-polls, meaning Trump’s gonna do better than the polling shows? Because people are — "
CARVILLE: "I'm saying traditionally, he under-polls, traditionally."
MAHER: "Means he’s going to do better in the election, because people are too ashamed to tell a pollster they’re going to vote for him."
CARVILLE: "I don’t know, but I’m just saying, traditionally, with Trump on the ballot, just telling the Democrats who say, 'Oh, James is a Debbie Downer, what’s he talking about?' Well, I’m not. Just telling you, you gotta win by 3."
