I have to admit that I'm rather disturbed by the idea that when the polls don't match the election results, our concern is first about the accuracy of the election results.

I'm not saying it's unwarranted, because I don't know that. But I know for certain that I have never trusted polls more than the actual results.

If we've come to that point, why bother with the elections?

Should the differences be investigated? Yes, particularly if it can be done quickly, without huge expence, and with expectation of a definitive answer.

But, unless I'm misunderstanding the attitude towards the polls, it is definitely disturbing.
