Polling: Unskewed Polls and comments on polling (moved from Harris Thread)

You mean … omigosh! Polls did not call every race right?!!!

It is not a quibble to dispute the false narrative of a predicted Red wave, especially when it is being used to imply that polls are predictably skewed in a direction.

Reality check as linked a bit above: polls almost always systemically err one way or the other, in Senate race 5.4%, and House races 6.1% on average. Both directions occur apparently randomly.

‘22 was actually a better performing year than usual.
