Tying It Together with Tim Boyum

Wrong Again: Why Pollsters Missed in 2020


Listen Later

On this week's edition of Tying It Together, Tim and Ben tackle the issue of another election and another disaster for the polling industry.

Politico argues that, much like 2016, the industry blew it again in 2020. President Trump also alleges polling interfered in the election and suppressed Republican votes. But, was it really that bad?

This week we bring in two nationally known pollsters and prognosticators.

Tom Jensen heads up the left-leaning Public Policy Polling, which is headquartered in North Carolina. Kyle Kondik is Managing Editor of Sabato's Crystal Ball, which is a nationally known and respected forecasting unit headquartered at the University of Virginia's Center for Politics.

Listen in as they detail why we saw what happened on Election Day, and why pollsters got it wrong again.
