A big deal is being made out of all these polls showing Donald Trump losing by wide margins in the 2020 election.

Here’s another one from Qunnipiac claiming that Trump would lose by at least nine points to several Democrat candidates in a theoretical general election contest.

Qunnipiac:

If the 2020 presidential election were held today, 54 percent of registered voters say that they would vote for former Vice President Joe Biden, while only 38 percent would vote for President Trump. Matchups against other top Democrats show:

Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders topping Trump 53 – 39 percent;
Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren ahead of Trump 52 – 40 percent;
California Sen. Kamala Harris beating Trump 51 – 40 percent;
South Bend Mayor Pete Buttigieg leading with 49 percent to Trump’s 40 percent.

I don’t believe this poll is an accurate view of the electorate. If you look closer at who they polled, they polled 34 percent Democrats versus 29 percent Republicans. They also said they polled people using land lines and polled “Spanish speakers.”

So yeah, I can see why the poll results came out the way they did. They polled particular groups of people who would give them a skewed result.

But this is the same type of thing they did in 2016. There were polls coming out showing Hillary Clinton ahead by 15 points and other zany shit. One even claimed that Clinton had a shot in Texas of all places.

At this point, these polls are mostly just being used as a means of political propaganda and should with a few exceptions, be totally disregarded.
