Pollsters Face Scrutiny After Underestimating Trump Victory Again

This outcome has further challenged the credibility of polling, which had shown a tight contest. Pollsters acknowledged the difficulty in accurately predicting voter turnout and demographics, particularly among young and Latino voters. The results highlight ongoing issues with polling accuracy, especially in the context of the Electoral College system.
