False Truths? Pollsters setting a "missing" trend

As the dust settles down, many are still shocked by the historic 2016 Presidential Elections in the USA. “Shocking” is the word since very few people had given the president- elect a chance. It surprisingly got to the point that Mr. Trump broke ranks with some of the senior members of the Republican Party. He moreover, got very little favor with the media, political analysts and most importantly the pollsters. They all falsely predicted a dead heat and victory for Mrs. Hillary Clinton and none saw a comfortable ride for the Republican Presidential Nominee.

Similarly, going back a few months to Brexit, political analysts and pollsters had a big miss. Predicting things to go one way and when it was all done things went the opposite way forcing Prime Minister David Cameron to call it quits. Back home, the story is even more interesting, the pollster keep “missing” to point that their credibility is now in question. I have gathered a few reasons why election results will keep “shocking” people and why this is a dangerous trend.
