Frank Luntz: Polling industry is ‘done’ if Trump wins again

Published October 30, 2020 9:03pm ET



Pollster and political operative Frank Luntz issued a warning to his colleagues in the polling industry about the 2020 election: If President Trump wins again, they can kiss their jobs goodbye.

“If the pollsters get it wrong this time, they’re done,” Luntz told longtime talk show host Larry King on Friday. “The industry is done. The profession is done. They were so clear in declaring Hillary Clinton as the winner in 2016, and they were wrong, and now, they’re doing the same thing with Joe Biden in 2020. If Donald Trump can come back and confound the experts, the polling profession is finished as a profession.”
