The Republican Party won Kentucky’s gubernatorial race on November 3 with an absolute majority of the vote (52% in a three-way race), but polls had said the Democratic nominee would win. This outcome is more evidence that election polls in this era are not accurate. See here for the Huffington Post story about this.
“This outcome is more evidence that election polls in this era are not accurate.”
That depends on what you mean by “accurate”. If by “accurate” you mean predicting the results of an election as they will be reported by election officials, you’re probably right. On the other hand, if by “accurate” you mean giving an accurate prediction of how voters actually voted using black box, electronic voting machines of “this era”, you’re probably wrong.
