Polls are a useful snapshot in time, but it's still anyone's game
It's almost all over, as Kamala Harris, Donald Trump and candidates up and down the ballot make one last push to get their supporters to the polls.
Meanwhile, anxious Americans are poring over the last-minute polls, trying to figure out what’s going to happen in this too-close-to-call election.
But the poller coaster can leave you dizzy. We’ve seen some surveys trending toward Trump nationally, but others trending towards Harris. We’ve seen some swing state polls swinging toward the Democrats, and others swinging to the GOP. How do we know which ones are accurate? What can polling trends really tell us about what to expect tomorrow?
For more on this, KCBS Radio anchors Patti Reising and Bret Burkhart, along with KCBS insider Doug Sovern, were joined by Christian Grose, professor of political science and public policy at USC and the Academic Director of the USC Schwarzenegger Institute, and an expert on polling and elections. This is The State of California.
