In a close race, polls are basically worthless.

What exactly does that mean?

It's polls that tell you how close a race is.  That's...an odd way of thinking.

I don't really think that's any less true when the race is not close.  When the polls are close, all they tell us is that the race is close.  When they aren't, all they tell us is that the race isn't close.

I know what you mean, though.
