I wouldn't say worthless, because we really don't know what polls are right and not right. After Nov. 4th then we can say this poll is worthless. But if you like you can say you "think" this poll is wrong.

I think this poll is wrong.

You can say that all you like, but the dam's breaking. This poll is O+2, M-2 on PPP's last poll of NC. Then in two neighboring states we've got O+10 in VA (Ras) and M+2 in GA (Democracy Corps).

How many outliers do you want in 1 day?

I'd prefer zero, but you can't have everything you want in life.

It's wishful thinking to assume that polls reflect a cosmic shift in the political demography of a state.
