Brexit polls weren't wrong please stop citing that talking point.



Polls showed Brexit narrowly ahead within a week or so of the election, when the Jo Cox death sort of threw things for a loop and their seemed to be a sympathy bump for Remain - but even then most reliable polls showed it close - close enough to where a Brexit win was incredibly possible. There were a couple of very unreliable pollsters that had it higher margins, but the smart money was still within 1-2 points in either direction.

As for your question - A is the only one that makes mostly sense (despite the crude brexit remark). C is a stupid old thing that needs to be sent to the dustbin of history.

That's why I used Brexit as only 1 example of poll failure. There have been a lot recently (Colombia, Austria etc.)

Austria polls actually seemed to underestimate the non-terrible candidate in the general election, which is what I believe will happen here.
