Pollsters and election modelers suffered an industry-shattering embarrassment at the hands of Donald Trump on Tuesday night.
Trump had long said the polls were biased against him. His claims – dismissed and mocked by the experts – turned out to be true.
“It’s going to put the polling industry out of business,” said CNN anchor Jake Tapper. “It’s going to put the voter projection industry out of business.”
Going into Election Day, a strong majority of pollsters and election modelers forecast that Hillary Clinton would coast to victory, with many predicting she would sweep the battlegrounds and win north of 300 electoral votes.
The final University of Virginia Center for Politics model had Clinton winning 322 electoral votes to 216 for Trump, with Clinton winning Florida, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin – all states that she lost.

The current riots are paid for by Sorros, Clinton, Obama and other Democrats...Clinton spent 1 Billion dolars on her campaign....Democrats lost 600 seats in Historic 2016 election ...We are seeing the demise of the Democratic psrty.. Praise God..
the reason the pollsters are wrong is because you cant have a fair poll by asking only democrats how they would vote
It's really a historic event. They have no one to blame but themselves. I'm tired of being called racist, useless and a bad person just for being white. It back fired on them bigtime my friend.
Well that's what you get when you dont tell the truth.
