Default Re: Hillary\'s poll numbers tanking...

So the margin of error is 1 percent, but it's unclear how they found the random sample of people willing to partake in the poll.

I think you misunderstood the poll. They never said they thought the sample was random. The 1% margin just means that they have a certain confidence level that the true percentage of people who would click and participate in an internet poll is in that 2% spread. This says pretty much nothing about how the voting public will vote.
