And in the same period their polling dropped off a cliff.
Reform (£293k) outspent the Tories 4:1 and Labour nearly 6:1 online over the last month. This has bought them around 50m ad impressions on Facebook and Instagram. A *lot* of reach and noise for a period with no elections.

I didn’t hear any acceptance of responsibility today from Johnson for the results. Only crying about polling companies because … they overestimated Republicans???

Polling firms should have to show a an accuracy rating going forward.

I’d add historically error ridden polling didn’t help. Good polling is expensive. They’re doing it on the cheap for clickbait.
An underdiscussed (imo) aspect of this election cycle is the extent to which media consolidation and domination by conservatives resulted in huge blind spots that ultimately prevented them from recognizing the widespread anger and dissatisfaction directed at Republicans.

POV you saw the internal polling
Jeffries: "There's not gonna be any opportunity to work with Stephen Miller and what he represents. We're committed to forcefully pushing back against the extremism that they may try to continue to unleash on the American people."

limited defense of national dems: they should’ve put money in - at least some money on jolly, which also would’ve helped nixon - but my guess is their polling was similar to the public polling, and they didn’t think it would be that close
also nixon winning *this year* wouldn’t have really mattered

12. Real-world polling and endorsements show the exact same split:
Every national progressive group and leader (Sanders, Warren, Our Revolution, Indivisible, MPA, UAW) backed Platner. And UNH polling (Platner 64%, Mills 26%) found "most socialists and majorities of progressives" backed Platner.

The polling error this year was larger than in 2020 or 2016, but since it favored Democrats there’s not been a single article about it.
