Overtime Politics Polls

[book_worm]

The Bernie gang are touting a poll showing the Bern is within 3 in Virginia from some outfit called "Overtime Politics" I just countered that with a thread stating on average HRC is up by 17 in Virginia (+22 in recent PPP poll & +12 in a Christopher Newport University Poll--both out this month). Furthermore the poll of polls on RealClearPolitics doesn't even acknowledge "Overtime Politics" polls. I wrote:

I see that Bernie folks are touting something called "Overtime Politics" which has a poll showing Bernie within 3 in Virginia. That poll came out on Feb 16--but was it added to the poll of polls on realclearpolitics? No, because apparently they don't feel it is a valid organization. I should mention, too, that they had a few days prior to that a poll showing Hillary up by 6 in Massachusetts--and I wanted to use it to counter that PPP poll showing Bernie up by 7 in Massachusetts, but after reading about them I decided not to as I figured if realclearpolitics and other organizations don't believe in them--why should I?

1. This is what the self-styled owner-operator

of Overtime Politics says about his methodology (it's from reddit).

Here is a DU thread about OP: http://www.democraticunderground.com/1251979411

It seems to be fairly amateur.
