(8,678 posts)A recent poll (Jan 14-16) by A rated SurveyUSA had Biden leading by 10%. SurveyUSA is best pollster in the country.. imo.
Change Research tends to produce odd numbers. I dont trust them.

(199 posts)Survey usa looks to be a outlier because all other California polls have Sanders in the lead. Also, survey usa was off by 11 points in their final prediction in the 2016 California democratic primary, so not a great track record in California.

(8,678 posts)Things changed considerably in that last 2 weeks. Almost everyone had Clinton leading by 10+ points at the time SurveyUSA did their last poll on May 23 then something happened about 10 days prior which closed the gap in the polling but Survey USA had no additional poll.

Polling is a snapshot in time. I think they were accurate at the time they did the poll but things change in politics.. sometimes very rapidly.
Survey USA is known to be one of the best if not the best polling outfit in the country.

(8,678 posts)Also, their polling was 2 weeks prior to the actual election so its a snapshot at the time. No pollster can predict the final outcome that far out. It's like predicting the weather weeks ahead. Almost impossible.
I think there is going to be another Survey USA survey coming soon. That one should tell the story better that anything else we have now.
