Opinion polls were not wrong... the conclusions at a micro level were wrong. then these wrong conclusions were stacked up to draw even wronger conclusions. The races that changed the election had like 70k voters making the difference. the races that were on the popularity vote were not wrong - cucu has over 1million on trump but that doesn't matter now. I don't think There was a silent majority but rather a silent group in critical states that turned the tide. Popularity of Obama is not synonymous to the "electoral college" vote but rather a "popular vote". It's just sheer numbers irregardless of where they are.
