Study suggests "shy voters" not reflecting true intent in polling

Shy voters my ass, nobody knows who you are voting for unless they tell you to begin with. Only some blast that message. Why would anyone be shy in anonymous polls? And if this unknown statistic could change polls it would mean all these polls were full of holes from the start.

Full of holes from the start....
Youre starting to catch on..

The Trafalger group proved it in 2016 by asking who they thought their neighbors were voting for.
The called MI and PA and Trump with 306 in the EC.

If independents and righties are more inclined to lie to pollsters, how do we know they are not lying to the pollsters who did this study?

Maybe they are really more inclined to tell the truth to pollsters.

"A new online study finds that Republicans and independents are twice as likely as Democrats to say they would not give their true opinion in a telephone poll question about their preference for president in the 2020 election."

How is this relevant to whether people were lying to pollsters? Predicting how their neighbors were voting doesn't seem connected.

One similarity to 2016 is that both presidential candidates have negative public approval ratings.

It proved effective in determining the states polled which orherwise were thought to not go Trump... but did.

Couldn't that have been because of lower turnout among Democrats (compared to 2012) than to people lying to pollsters?

Many of those states were withing the 3% margin of error, so that does not really indicate lying but fairly accurate poll results.
