The Democrats will "win" today, because of cellphones: A lot of American adults (now about one-quarter of them) have ditched landlines and rely exclusively on mobile phones, and a lot of pollsters don’t call mobile phones. Cellphone-only voters tend to be younger, more urban, and less white — all Democratic demographics — and a study by Pew Research suggests that the failure to include them might bias the polls by about 4 points against Democrats, even after demographic weighting is applied.
I can think of nothing worse than Boehner having control of the house. The gloating orange walking cancer must be denied! Get out and vote people. Hell yes we can.
I have been thinking that the polls are inaccurate for a different reason...I suspect that the people who actually answer the phone when a pollster is calling are older and more often retired and thus more conservative. In races where one candidate is 10 points ahead, this doesn't matter but in those close calls, it probably does...remember Jim Webb.
My young son explained to me that surprisingly few trick-or-treaters came to the door in our working-class neighborhood because the Republicans had told them that Halloween was Monday. Pretty good joke for a 13 year old.
Can I just say that I know no women who would even think of this, but I can imagine plenty of men who would think of it and then act on it? Does that make me sexist?

Also, Democrats aren't stupid enough to answer the phone when a pollster calls.

It stands to reason that whoever is paying for the poll has an enhanced likelihood of getting the results they prefer.
