A favorite of poll skeptics is its sampling bias. How did the New York Times come up with a polling sample that included 36 percent rural voters when the 2020 proportion of rural voters was 19 percent? Somehow, the poll’s sample of female voters was equally skewed…

Uh-huh.

The poll found Trump winning the female vote by one percent, when Biden carried women in 2020 by 11 points.

And Salon uses this as one support to argue that NYT skewed the statistics. It’s a strange article. I find unnecessary weak arguments here and there.

“Err, I’d back up my opinion differently” was my reaction for the few minutes during the reading.
