"Oregon could be a swing state in 2016!"

"You can't just play with numbers like that. It doesn't work that way."

"No, look at this poll! It proves I'm right!"

"It's one junk poll. It doesn't prove anything."

"But look at this poll!"

"That just doesn't make sense."

"Hack!"

Statespolls goes into every thread and unskews like ive never seen done before on this forum. Im not giving him credit for calling something just because a questionable poll came out, and we had a Clinton +11 Oregon poll from a decent pollster released that hes completely ignored.

"Junk poll! Oregon will be swing state in 2016!"

StatesPoll, one junk poll does not a victory make.

StatesPoll was a user months before your time, so you probably don't know that he was/is known for making ridiculous predictions based on completely bogus numbers. Like "Trump can win California if he only wins 8% more of the white vote", as if winning 8% more of the white vote was like walking out to get the mail.

There's no point in trying to reason with or debate him. He just cherry picks data and makes absurdly unrealistic calculations to justify his whack-job predictions. The funny thing is, he actually runs a site just for this (one that conveniently only has posts that show Trump is a good light, and omitting the vast majority of polls/data that show him losing)

In short, he's delusional and biased as hell.
Oh no, I already know, I just felt like saying that.

You have to admit, even if he's incoherent and deluded he's pretty entertaining.
