Fivethirtyeight adjusted this poll to TRUMP+2
If we cared about discredited fraud Nate Silver's poll unskewing, we would go on 538.
you democrats really are....odd

Don't lump us all in the same boat. I don't understand all the hate for Nate here, except for "he doesn't show what I want him to show, so he's wrong". FiveThirtyEight is my go-to site for a big-picture depiction of where the race stands.

He is the only pollster which got each state winner right back in 2012, so I would give him some credit.

I can't remember, did Silver adjust/unskew other polls in 2012, or simply average them?

Pretty sure he took the polls' biases into account in 2012, too.

I think his house effect adjustments are fine. I don't think he's gospel though. I also check Pollster, RCP and Pollyvote daily.

Oh I certainly agree. 538's a great summary site, but it's prone to errors and biases as any other site is. I also check out other sources.
