Can I ask why anyone is putting any stock in Lucky Pickle Polling? Have they even polled a race before this one?
Nope, but at least their methodology looks solid. I'd rather see a poll from this firm than some known junk pollster like Emerson, for example, which has a bad methodology and a bad track record.
IVR landline-only polling has many faults, but opt-in Internet polling, like Lucid's methodology, is so unproven that they can't even generate a margin of error. Both methods are terrible. The only question is which is worse. I guess we'll know after the election.
Isn't that how all online polling works though? YouGov is the same.
