“…That is, there is a consistent pattern of underreporting by Trump's supporters, inducing on average about −0.005 data defect correlation, and hence D I ≈ 2.5 × 10 −5 . This quantitative finding provides numerical evidence to the general belief that there was serious underreporting by Trump's supporters [see e.g., Cohn (2017), Gelman and Azari (2017)]. The quantitative measure of the bias in terms of the data defect correlationρ N is of value for predicting future elections, such as the 2020 US presidential election.…”

“…As for Trump supporters who stated otherwise when polled: anecdotes aside, it seems doubtful there are many people who would go to the trouble of responding to a poll and then answering insincerely. For one thing, a Trumpsupporting respondent who states a preference for Biden is actually hurting, not helping, his preferred candidate, in that Trump's perceived unpopularity is one reason why some of his fellow Republicans would be less strongly supportive of him, and state-level polling errors in 2016 were not consistent with the "shy Trump voter" hypothesis, 22 nor did analysis of 2020 polls support this theory. 23 Differential nonresponse and differential turnout seem like more plausible explanations of polling error.…”

“…Inherent weaknesses of party organization, however, are paired with historic levels of voter polarization. 34 Active and engaged voters are far more worried about sins of the other side than behavior within their own camp. 35 These factors are fertile soil for the current experiment in Trumpism's "pluto-populism," a hybrid of plutocracy and popular mobilization.…”
