The polls also showed Biden running comfortably ahead in Wisconsin, yet he won it by less than a percentage point. In Ohio, the polls pointed to a tight race; instead, Trump won it easily.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn each of these states \u2014 and some others \u2014 pollsters failed to reach a representative sample of voters. One factor seems to be that Republican voters are more skeptical of mainstream institutions and are less willing to respond to a survey. If that\u2019s true, polls will often understate Republican support, until pollsters figure out how to fix the problem.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis possibility offers reason to wonder whether Democrats are really doing as well in the midterm elections as the conventional wisdom holds. Recent polls suggest that Democrats are favored to keep control of the Senate narrowly, while losing control of the House, also narrowly.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOne factor seems to be that Republican voters are more skeptical of mainstream institutions and are less willing to respond to a survey,\u201d he added Monday.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer has admitted Democrats are in big trouble as the midterms draw closer.
