The Polls: What Are They Leaving Out?

When it comes to polls, sometimes it’s not what they show you that matters.

It’s what they don’t.

What if a new poll shows that Kamala is down by 5 points, but the mainstream pollsters refuse to release it?

Then they can keep pointing at the poll results that best suits them.

Well it seems that on the 4th, all the main pollsters decided to go quiet.

Why?

We are polling Trump v. Harris daily.
Here are the updated results as of yesterday.

Every mainstream pollster mysteriously stopped polling national numbers on 8/4.

Newsmax reports:

President Donald Trump leads Vice President Kamala Harris 49-44% nationally in the 2024 presidential race, according to a new Rasmussen poll released Thursday.

Other candidates drew 4% and 3% said they were undecided.

The survey of 1,794 likely voters was conducted on Aug. 1 and 4-7. It has a margin of error of +/- 2 percentage points.

The poll comes two days after Harris tapped Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz as her running mate to take on Trump and his No. 2, Ohio Sen. J.D. Vance.

There were 6 non-Rasmussen General Election polls on RCP the week of the JD Vance pick.

Only ONE this week.

This is having people wondering what’s going on.

Surely a coincidence?

For those not grasping it:

If they're seeing numbers similar to me, they're keeping the aggregates blue by not releasing new polling.

But why would they hold back on new polling?

That’s not like them, is it?

Strange things are a foot.
