Iowa Pollster Ann Selzer Denies Election Interference Allegations After 19-Point Error
Dec 15, 2024, 02:18 PM
Ann Selzer, a well-known Iowa pollster, has responded to accusations of election interference following the release of a poll that inaccurately predicted Vice President Kamala Harris would lead President-elect Donald Trump by three points in Iowa. Trump ultimately won the state by over 10 percentage points. Selzer, who has a history of accurate polling, expressed confusion over the allegations, stating that she takes the accusations seriously as they imply criminal activity. She emphasized that she has never intentionally manipulated poll results in her career. Selzer also suggested in an op-ed that her poll might have galvanized Republican voters, potentially influencing the election outcome. She has since announced her intention to move on to other ventures post-election. The poll was wrong by 19 points, leading to accusations of election interference and criminal allegations against her.
