Something else to keep in mind is that PPP is releasing 20 state polls tonight.  That means that even if their polls are perfect there will still be one poll that will miss the final result by more than the margin of error (about 3 or so percent), assuming the margin of error is the 95% confidence interval.

So, when we look back on today's PPP polls on Wednesday there will be one or two that missed very badly.  That's not PPP's fault. That's just statistics.
