    Polls were perfectly in line with the result of 2016

    When polls say that candidate X has a 51% chance of winning then it’s perfectly valid for the other candidate to win. Literally almost as likely. That’s what happened in 2016

      I remember seeing polls declaring Hilary had 90% chance of winning, everyone on TV was talking about it like she had it in the bag.
