I have no clue what the + or - numbers mean after polls, I know their ramifications, I'm not questioning that.  But what are they called so I can look up how it is calculated.  Without that google hasn't been helpful, and I don't want to derail the stream.  Won't lie it does feel shitty to ask a real question and get told "good luck"

Sorry you felt that way chatter. I think it’s because Hasan has explained it so your message read like you were saying you didn’t believe Hasan’s explanation. 

 “+ or -“ is the *margin of error* calculation. It varies but it means that each number can be at the top of that + or the bottom of that -. You can look up different ways margins of errors are calculated but it will vary poll to poll :) 

Does that help? I’m not from the US so can’t give specific examples but helpful to explain any that you are trying to parse through. HasL

That helps so much! Even the websites I were on didn't have it labelled as margin of error so I didn't know to look for that.  Thank you!

Glad I could help! Hasan has misunderstood me before too but that’s just the life of navigating in such a high traffic chat. Hope you don’t take it personally ❤️‍🩹
