Not that I trust them anyway. For being a pollster, he kept using polls like ABC and CNN that were proven, often, of being purposely skewed. That just speaks of rank deception. |

I don't know if it's a CYA move on Silver's part or not, but either way, it is interesting to think about. Also, it is noted that Trump is doing better than Romney did in the Midwest.

Quoting: NightBloom I think the undecided voters were trump fans that did not want to admit it, because the media spun all trump supports as crazy UN-educated losers. |
