As we have seen time and again--the polling data is often wrong. More & more people are using cell phones-as their only source and don't have landlines. The pollsters do not have cell phone numbers---and many more--like myself will not pick up on unknown callers. So polling has become a disaster today.
This New York Times aricle tells the story right here. This is just one example--you can click the below link to see the rest.
Texas Senate Cruz V O'Rourke
Number of calls made--51,893
responses 800
So a mere 800 people out of the whole state of Texas is determing the polling data.
And they're all like this from A to W. Thousands of calls going out with very few picking up to answer pollsters questions, which is obviously why so many polls are wrong. See it for yourself.

So the only thing to do is IGNORE them and VOTE! Take nothing for granted just VOTE!
