Republican pollster Frank Luntz told Fox News’ "Media Buzz" on Sunday that the credibility of his profession has been irreversibly damaged after President Trump outperformed polls for a second straight presidential election.
The Veteran pollster told host Howard Krutz that that public opinion surveys significantly underestimated Trump’s support again, and urged those responsible for botching back-to-back presidential elections to seek a new profession.

Frank Luntz is a putz. He is one of them. What kind of American would ever talk to a poll taker of any kind? Unless it was to lie to them, which would be cool.

Were the pollsters wrong, or did they lie? The ONLY thing pointing to a Biden win was the polls. Every other indicator was pointing to a Trump win.
I believe that massive fraud was planned and that the pollsters were in on it. Convince everyone that Biden was going to win to suppress GOP turnout and guarantee a win. With high poll numbers. No one would bat an eye.
The problem is and was the NO ONE on the left expected the massive GOP turnout. To overcome it, counting slowed or stopped to allow Biden only ballots to be delivered.

So is Luntz going to take his own advice?

They were not "wrong." They are corrupt and dishonest.. A lot of things are about to be exposed. There is a lot of voter fraud that has been going on under the radar for decades. It is all going to come out.
This is going to backfire big time on the libs. Voter fraud is going to be the hot topic in the months to come. It will not go well for the Marxist left. Don't watch cable news!! (or any news)

The pollsters were in on this.....it doesn't make any sense unless they were otherwise. Just like Cocaine Mitch was and is....he's honest only to the extent that he needs to be.

They could just change the name of their profession to the Goebbels Institute of Leftist Learning.

Frank has a very expensive hairpiece to maintain so he's not going anywhere.

Most journalists need to find a new profession. Perhaps as prostitutes.

Fortune telling has always been a fool’s game, even when it’s dressed up in fancy college degrees and a scientific approach. Frank Luntz may as well exchange his toupee for a woman’s wig, hang a shingle and call himself “Madame Francis the Bearded Fortune Teller/Walk-Ins Welcome” and he’d be just as accurate and useful.

Get a different job, Puntz. Just make sure it doesn't entail me having to watch or hear anything you have to say for the rest of your life.

Frank, the polling industry became unashamed propaganda decades ago. They won’t find another job because they are doing precisely what they are being paid to do.

Just think how bad it would look if the Dems hadn't cheated and Trump won on the first count, like he should have!

The fake polls were two fold: voter suppression and, more importantly, to create a false sense of plausibility for the final “vote” count.

2 problems. The polls are not polls; they are influencers. Also, the environment is made toxic by revenge politicians who demonize and promise to punish their opponents' supporters.
You think you can get people who are under attack to self identify. You crazy?

If the dems would tell the pollsters where they will be adding votes it would help make the pollsters more accurate.

Silver lining. The shows how meaningless, useless and almost never accurate any kind of scientific "modeling" is. This should help put the lie to alleged man-made global warming.

The polling profession has not changed it's just that half of the American people are not gullible idiots like the other half.

Is Frank going to sell real estate? But really, who wants these slimes involved in real estate? Maybe they become basement dwellers or move to China.

First Luntz says that if the polls are wrong his career is over. Like we care. His next story is that he did focus groups, not polls. Now he’s advising all the pollsters to find new careers. He is a backstabbing punk who is trying to stay relevant while throwing everyone else under the bus. He should do himself a favor and just shut up.

Margin of error in polling is only meaningful if the sample is representative of the larger population. Combined with shy Trump supporters or people lying just for the lols, and you've got yourself completely invalid poling. Regardless of how you shine it up with pretty graphs and such. Like putting lipstick on a pig.
