Two weeks after her firm incorrectly found Vice President Kamala Harris surging in increasingly red Iowa, pollster J. Ann Selzer said Sunday she is leaving election polling and ending her longstanding relationship with the Des Moines Register, which dates back to 1997.
“Over a year ago I advised the Register I would not renew when my 2024 contract expired with the latest election poll as I transition to other ventures and opportunities,” Selzer wrote in an op-ed for the newspaper.
The final Des Moines Register poll, released the Saturday before the election, found Harris (47 percent) and Donald Trump (44 percent) neck and neck, a shocking result in a state not considered competitive. According to unofficial results, Trump won Iowa by 13 points, 56 percent to 43 percent.
THE HOUSE OF STEPHANOPOULOS: Trump Has No Mandate:

Time magazine: Hold my Sauvignon Blanc:

But hey, it’s the DNC-MSM: Their party’s presidents get “mandates” no matter if they needed a third party candidate to help them squeak by; the other side isn’t allowed a mandate no matter how popular he was at the ballot box.
Of course, prior to the election, Whoopi Goldberg, the co-host of the ABC News program was predicting that “Donald Trump Will ‘Disappear’ Journalists And ‘Gay Folks,’” and that “Trump will break up interracial marriages by deporting the spouses of White men.” Now they’re simply discussing how big of a mandate for change he will have.
(Curiously, she was also using the same level of inflammatory rhetoric about the now sainted John McCain in 2008, asking him during his appearance the show, “Do I have to worry about becoming a slave again?”)
