For another thing, it no longer really makes sense to classify entire *polling firms* by their methodology. Lots of polling firms mix-and-match methodologies, change them in midstream, etc. Methodology is a characteristic of a poll, not the pollster. — PolitiTweet.org

The other big finding is that we no longer see a clear rationale to give live-caller polls a higher grade by default in our pollster ratings. For one thing, they haven't particularly outperformed other methodologies. https://t.co/iy502D79RU — PolitiTweet.org

That doesn't mean that quality doesn't matter. We find that pollsters that participate in professional transparency/data-sharing initiatives continue to get considerably better results. The pollster ratings will continue to reflect this. https://t.co/gsp1olV914 — PolitiTweet.org
