The highly respected Marquette University Law School Wisconsin poll could have framed the day’s narrative about the state of the presidential race. Had the Marquette poll shown Republican nominee Donald Trump leading, tied, or even just close to Hillary Clinton, the Democratic panic narrative might have taken over the day, despite a plethora of polls in other states. In part, that’s because Marquette is the gold standard Wisconsin poll. After all, that makes for good ratings, right? Obama’s odds in the states were good enough that he was predicted to get 332 electoral votes (which is what he got).
