PPP is not only not the finest polling company in the country nor better than Gravis, but it also garbage. Waiting to see what Vox Populi has to say here.
That doesn't really align with what you said here:

He literally wouldn't have a job without accurate pollsters like PPP.

https://uselectionatlas.org/FORUM/index.php?topic=179096.msg3867202#msg3867202A few things. First of all, acting like any pollster is "scientific" these days with the pathetically low response rates, the rise of no-landline people, etc. is stupid. I think that the old assumptions about what makes a good polling methodology need to be seriously looked at, especially because PPP, despite not doing it the "correct" way, is getting accurate results, often in races where no one else is brave enough to poll, often before anyone else has released any polls. This is not dumb luck and it's not making up numbers. They're clearly very accurate, and at the end of the day, for their clients, for political enthusiasts, for journalists, etc. that's all that matters.
That was 2013, but you were saying the same thing last November post-election.
