Filmaker Michael Moore is warning voters against celebrating ahead of the election because polls are not always what they seem.
While the majority of polls suggest Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden could win the upcoming presidential election, Michael Moore is insisting President Donald Trump could pull off another upset.
“It’s awful news that Biden’s ahead by seven points in Michigan and I have to fight against this constantly. I need to remind people that the poll back in July said at that point that Biden was ahead in Michigan by 16 points. Trump has cut that in half,” Moore told The Hill on Thursday.
He added, “Trump has tightened virtually every one of these swing states to the point where they are saying this morning it’s five points ahead… Biden’s five points ahead in Wisconsin, he’s maybe three to five points ahead in Florida, two points ahead in Arizona. Listen, don’t believe these polls first of all, and second of all, the Trump vote is always being undercounted.”

Moore explained when pollsters call Trump supporters they are “very suspicious” and it is “all fake news to them.”
He is advising voters to take whatever the polls are saying the Biden lead is and cut it in half.
Moore stressed he does not know what is going to happen on Nov. 3, but he will be doing everything he can to make sure Trump does not win.
“I know he’s an evil genius and he’s smarter than all of us and I know people hate to hear that, but I’m sorry. To win the White House by losing the election, that’s genius,” Moore said.
He reiterated voters should be prepared for another possible Trump victory.
In a new CNN poll released Wednesday, Biden leads Trump by 12 points nationally. Among likely voters, 54% support Biden compared to Trump’s 42%.
