<p>After Donald Trump&#8217;s political-world-shattering upset of Hillary Clinton, the polling industry finds itself facing an existential crisis. A vast majority of the key polls were not just wrong, they were <a href="http://thehill.com/blogs/ballot-box/presidential-races/305133-pollsters-suffer-huge-embarrassment">humiliatingly wrong</a>. Though a very select few — most notably the <a href="http://www.latimes.com/politics/la-na-pol-usc-latimes-poll-20161108-story.html">LA Times</a>, <a href="http://www.investors.com/politics/trump-holds-2-point-lead-over-clinton-as-election-day-arrives-final-ibd-tipp-poll-results/">IBD/TIPP</a>, and <a href="https://investmentwatchblog.com/breaking-trafalgar-group-independent-private-poll-has-trump-winning-pa-fl-mi-ga-ut-nv/">Trafalgar Group</a> — actually got it about right, most pollsters ended up grossly over-sampling Democrats and failing to account for Trump&#8217;s &#8220;hidden&#8221; supporters. Below is a comparison of the final polling data going into the election Tuesday morning and the final results, which often ended up looking quite different.</p>
<p>On the morning of the election, Real Clear Politics&#8217; average of the national polls showed Clinton with a 3.3% national lead over Trump and a projected Electoral College victory of 272 to 266. Instead, Clinton ended up with only a 2.2% popular vote advantage and suffering a devastating 227 to 304 loss. At no point before the election did the state poll averages show Trump winning the necessary 270 electoral votes.</p>
