And it is confirmed.  It was a mistake on the pollsters part.  And it affected every candidate just the same.  It just so happened that it affect a Pete supporter who called and pointed out the problem.

A font error?  Listen to yourself.  You sound F-ing crazy.  

How did Pete supporters point out the problem?  They were given the poll?  Was Bernie given the poll?  Was every candidate given the poll?  What size was the font?  Can the Bernie supporters provide us a copy of the poll questions/analysis with larger font?  Nobody testing the screen? 

This doesn't end anything.  It's only begets more questions.  

Not everything is a grand conspiracy, this isn't Trumpworld.

It appears that a Pete supporter contacted the pollster when his name was left off a polls.  They researched on their end when the issue was brought up an found the issue with the font size, but were unable to determine how many or which specific interviews were impacted/

Okay.  When was the issue brought to their attention?  If early, why were people not notified before the CNN event?  Why did they not test their own polls?  Did they really not know until 9PM?  The time when CNN had scheduled their Iowa poll special?  Not buying it.  I'm not this incompetent, and don't believe two large corporations would have been that monumentally incompetent. 

Not releasing a poll is obviously not a good look, but this certainly goes to show why hosting a TV event around a release of a single poll isn't the greatest idea (and I was looking forward to it myself).  When something happens you might simply not have enough time to see how big or not an issue that pops up might actually be.

Biden +5  in Georgia or Texas?
