Source of poll numbers
What is the source of the poll numbers on this page? Kaltenmeyer (talk) 22:04, 4 June 2013 (UTC)
 * I am not sure about 2012, since I am not the one who posted [b]those[/b] numbers here, but here is the source for the poll numbers for 1936 to 2008: http://www.gallup.com/poll/110548/gallup-presidential-election-trialheat-trends-19362004.aspx#4 Futurist110 (talk) 23:27, 5 January 2014 (UTC)

Gallup-centric
What is the point of an article that is centered upon only one polling source??? Seems it would be more logical to split each election cycle into their own article, and include all available polls from every reputable polling source.SecretName101 (talk) 03:13, 19 February 2018 (UTC)

NPOV/Irrelevant Information
Hello everybody,

In the sections regarding the 2000 and 2016 presidential elections, there is text that refers to the popular vote as 'meaningless'. Additionally, in the 2000 section the article states that 'most people don't know' how the electoral college works. At the very least, that is a citation needed. I think the article would be fine without all of those statements. - Xenologer48 (talk) 20:59, 30 April 2020 (UTC)

I would note that it looks like that information was added in a series of edits made April 24, 2020, so this is a new addition to the page

The person who made the change also seems to have a history of making similar politically charged edits such as these ones (which were reverted) https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Kirstjen_Nielsen&diff=prev&oldid=867642099 https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Jennifer_Rubin_(journalist)&diff=prev&oldid=848684025

I also would agree with removing them personally

Ok, I have done it, though I forgot to sign in because I haven't done this before. Le sigh. Xenologer48 (talk) 16:46, 4 May 2020 (UTC)

Don't Delete
User:GamerKiller2347, you recently proposed deleting this article because it lacks some sources. Shouldn't we just add the sources? Xenologer48 (talk) 15:45, 16 June 2021 (UTC)
 * User:Xenologer48, if we can find them, yes. GamerKiller2347 (talk) 16:32, 16 June 2021 (UTC)
