Privacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy35 min - Afraid to Trust Polling Because of the 2016 Election? Markos Moulitsas of DailyKos and Civiqs Has Good News For YouI know, I know. The polls in 2016 showed Hillary Clinton ahead of Trump at this point (before Comey’s October Surprise), and since we all know how that turned out, it feels foolish to trust in the data this time around. But Markos Moulitsas, Founder of DailyKos and Civiqs, wants you to know that the numbers are showing something different: Trump has lost a couple key demographics that put him in the White House, and that makes a difference. This, along with the potential for a Big Blue Wave in the senate, has Markos feeling optimistic and he shares some theories on how it might shake out, including the fate of our Supreme Court.
