From what i read, 1948 was not a complete fiasco. The last poll, i think from Gallup, gave Dewey just a 5 point lead in October. In August, Dewey lead Truman by 11 points. It was a suprise result because everybody stopped polling altogether. Perhaps if they continued polling, a Truman surge was probably going to be seen.
