Episode Date: November 4, 2024Trump and MAGA are manipulating the polls to put Trump in the lead, to both suppress the votes and enthusiasm for VP Harris, and to give Trump and his lawyers the groundwork to claim the election was... stolen.

Are fake polls and fake polling led by MAGA dominated or Republican dominating polling sites
being used to try to interfere with the election results and set the groundwork
for Donald Trump and the Republicans to contest the election.
I'm Michael Popock.
This is Legal AF and the Midas Touch Network.
Polling is back in the news for all the wrong reasons.
And traditional pollsters are looking at the numbers and they believe there is something
afoot, that something is rotten about the polls and they're being used to
influence and suppress the vote, it influence its outcomes. Let me give you
an example. In the last, the only polling entities out there that are doing
battleground polling this late in the game and have been doing it for the last
several weeks are dominated by Republican partisan polling companies, not the classic
nonpartisan ones that had been around before.
In fact, those nonpartisan polling companies have basically abdicated their responsibility
to do polling, leaving to the vacuum the partisan pollsters.
So as a result, in the 37 of the last polls in the battleground states, it now shows Trump
leading in 30 out of 37 of those polls, which gives the impression that a Kamala Harris
may lose the election.
It does two things to have fake polling.
One, it suppresses the vote.
It makes people less enthusiastic potentially about voting because they think their person is going to lose.
It's a little counterintuitive. You would think that would make them more motivated, but studies have shown that that can have a suppressing impact on people's exercise of their right to vote.
That's one. And secondly, it gives Donald Trump and his lawyers the ability to say,
how did we lose the election if they inevitably lose by saying we were ahead in every poll in every state by every measure?
How did we lose? There must have been a stolen election.
And they're going to use that as a bulwark as leverage for their arguments in court.
So it's serving two purposes and the Republicans
and MAGA and their pollsters have gotten the message. The message is to play around with the
statisticals and the algorithm and the statistics of it and come up with ways to have improbably,
improbable polling. That's what we're seeing right now. Traditional pollsters and statisticians have taken a look at the polls currently, and they
said it's a statistical anomaly that is impossible.
For yes, we understand they're claiming it's a close election, although I don't think it
is.
I think Kamala Harris will win this running away.
But the fact that it's this close in so many states within a point or less everywhere,
but yet Donald Trump is ahead in every one of those polls is a statistical impossibility
if they're doing their job right, unless their job is to try to interfere with the election
and give Donald Trump's lawyers something to talk about in a lawsuit.
And that's what the New York Times and The Guardian have come out to talk about.
Now, there's a couple of reasons we have the fake polls going on right now.
As I said earlier, traditional nonpartisan pollsters have gotten out of the business
of polling and they're not even polling this late in the game, leaving to MAGA to do the
devil's play thing, to F with the polls. That's why in every non-partisan poll,
Kamala Harris is ahead in the battleground states by one or two or three points. But in every
amalgamation of all the polls, including these heavily weighted MAGA Republican partisan polls,
she's behind in every state. And then I haven't even talked about Polymarket,
which is being used on Wall Street as a trading platform where Wall Street, where you get to buy
and sell whether you think Donald Trump or Kamala Harris is going to win on an exchange,
on effectively a stock exchange. And right now, Poly market based on who's buying and who's selling,
uh, who's shorting and who's going long.
Thinks that there's a 67% chance that Donald Trump is going to win, but
poly market is filled with fraud because there's been an analysis that there's
a lot of wash trading going on.
There's a lot of people that are buying
buying Kamala Harris short and selling her long and manipulating the vote totals in order to
have a Donald Trump win. For all we know, foreign adversaries, foreign enemies are helping to
manipulate polymarket to make it look like Donald Trump is way ahead. Again, when it is a deflation, it's a deflator,
when you think your candidate is going to lose.
That's why you hear in conjunction with the phony polling
that's being reported by mainstream media as real,
combined with polymarket, which is being manipulated
to give Donald Trump the lead,
so that Donald Trump and all magic can say,
we're gonna win, we're gonna win, we're up by three, we're up by four, we're up by five
points. When in reality, they're down by one or two or three points where it matters in all the
battleground states like Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin. And when Kamala Harris pulls it
off, not by a little, but I think by a lot, because I don't think the polls are accurate.
I think this is fraudulent manipulation of the polls and of the market to give Donald Trump a win, both by enemies, foreign and domestic, and by people who want to
suppress the vote and depress you from going and voting. Don't let that happen. Don't let that
happen. The report for today's episode comes from iHerb. iHerb offers the best curated selection of wellness products

As I said, it also is the by-product of giving them something to talk about in
MAGA world when the inevitable lawsuits, some of which have already been filed,
get brought up when Donald Trump doesn't go quietly into the night after losing
and a crushing defeat.
I'll make it clear.
Anyone who is independent, who is a statistician and a pollster, who's looked at the polling in the last several months since Kamala Harris has gotten in the race has questioned the veracity
of those polls.
And the fact that statistically it is impossible for the results to be what they claim to be,
state by state, moment by moment, always putting Donald Trump into the lead.
It's impossible.
And that is being used as a weapon.
Polling has now been weaponized by MAGA and we can't stand for it.
There's a way to beat it.
The only poll that matters is the poll that you go to on election day, or
unless you early voted already, like I did, that poll matters.
Crush the fake polls, crush the polymarket manipulation that's
showing Donald Trump in the lead.
Vote, not more than once, but definitely vote in the right precinct,
having been properly registered.
And if you do that in the numbers that we expect and the grounds swell,
that's going to open and the dam that's going to burst and support for combo
hours, we're going to win on the other side of Tuesday.
But the phony polling is a problem, something the department of
justice should look into.
That's why you see right wing, MAGA, QAnon bloggers and podcasters like Jack Prasopiak, who was,
who was featured at the Madison Square Garden event, sending out phony, phony social media
posts that put them out into the universe that Joe Biden thinks is going to be a crushing defeat
for Kamala Harris. And she's a sucker and a loser. He actually wrote that. Okay. None of that is
going to happen. Forget the polls,
except for the legitimate, not partisan ones that show the combo hours is ahead every place where
it matters and reject these other polls. That's why MAGA is going to be so shocked when they wake
up on Tuesday or Wednesday. When we were up by seven or eight points. How did that happen? Polymarket said 67%.
I've been disappointed by polls.
Nate Silver, 528.
It broke my heart in Hillary Clinton.
I woke up the morning on 2016 to vote,
you know, the day of the election for the 2016 election.
And I saw in the morning, I had a big bounce in my step,
Nate Silver, 528 pollster.
He said it was a 90% chance that Hillary Clinton was going to
win the election, how'd that work out?
So I got my own thing about polls.
So forget poll 67% here, this and that.
All right.
It's all up to you.
Don't let them weaponize polling.
Don't let them use it against us in the, in the lawsuits.
We'll, we'll handle that part on legal AF here on the Midas Dutch network,
uh, where we call attention to the things
at the intersection of law and politics that matter.
On a podcast we call Legal AF.
