Another possibility is a mode effect, where people respond differently online. But it wouldn't really explain a lack of variance, just bias. It made more sense in '17, though even then it was unproven and the idea that it flipped is tough to stomach. — PolitiTweet.org

Another explanation is noise: the low volume of live interview polls means that our estimate of live interview polls is uncertain at any time (I don't think we can be sure that WaPo, Pew couldn't say Trump at 38/58 tomorrow). But the pattern has lasted long enough for me. — PolitiTweet.org

A final possibility, and one that maybe you should root for, is that it's basically a coincidence--we have only a small number of diverse, idiosyncratic online pollsters. They have their own patterns, and can't be clumped like the live RDD polls, which are fundamentally similar. — PolitiTweet.org
