Why is Crooked Media, a reputable, well known podcasting company, so set on using such a weak, outlier pollster for all their random state polls?
I mean, maybe Change is just ahead of the curve here, but they don't have a great reputation and if your polling a state that rarely gets polled you really need a good organization to do it since you can't rely on the power of averages.

When comparing our absolute error on the top-two margin among all our polls with available public comparisons, we are similar in terms of accuracy: slightly less accurate on Senate and Governor polls, and slightly more accurate on U.S. House polls. Of course, our average price per poll is only $4,000–5,000 — usually 80–90% less than what a candidate would pay for a traditional poll.
You get what you pay for.
