[quote=Anonymous]J. Ann Selzer - renowned for her predictions in The Hawkeye State - admitted her research was completely wrong and might have even emboldened MAGA nation.

'I told more than one news outlet that the findings from this last poll could actually energize and activate Republican voters who thought they would likely coast to victory,' she wrote Thursday. 'Maybe that's what happened.'

- Daily Mail today

Also the paper itself seems horrified by all this:
“The humiliation also led Register executive editor Carol Hunter to issue a statement to readers explaining why they published the poll.

'The Des Moines Register is closely reviewing the disparity between the results of the final Iowa Poll and the election results,' Hunter said in a statement.

'Throughout its 81 years, the mission of the Iowa Poll has been to reflect the unvarnished opinions of Iowans, without pressure or interpretation from politicians, media or others.

'With rare exceptions, the final Iowa Poll before elections has tracked closely with the actual vote.

'Register editors will work closely with pollster J. Ann Selzer to review all methodologies and other factors that may have impacted the difference.”
