   Interesting but, you have to know I'm a skeptic.   
      
   I'm a liberal Democrat, yes, but I am loyal to ideal,   
   policies and issues, not candidates. Which is one   
   reason why I was so angry -- NOT disappointed but   
   actually ANGRY at the Biden administration...   
      
   Anyway, so before the 2024 election one of the more   
   interesting AND USEFUL concepts I stumbled upon were   
   the folks who looked at polling histories, note any   
   bias and then interpreted the (pre election) 2024   
   polls ADJUSTING FOR those biases.   
      
   Some are biased in favor of Republicans, most were   
   biased in favor of Democrats.   
      
   NOTE:  When I say "Biased" I mean they consistently   
   showed poll results ABOVE their actual vote numbers...   
      
   Above for the party they were biased towards.   
      
   Below for the party they were biased against.   
      
   And according to those adjustments, Trump was going   
   to win by a landslide. He was even going to win in   
   races that were supposedly going for Kamala.   
      
   MY ONE PROBLEM with all this is that Presidential   
   elections only happen once every four years. That's   
   plenty of time for people to start leaving a   
   corporation. And when you're looking back even 5   
   Presidential races, THAT'S 20 YEARS!   
      
   What percentage of a typical company quits, gets   
   fired, retires or dies within a 20 year period?   
      
   So I was a little skeptical that any bias could   
   remain tight over a statistically significant number   
   of Presidential elections.   
      
   But, the results did prove true.
