Failure of Data

Without going into political views and what this election means,   I think that the biggest question is HOW did the experts (and damn near everyone)  get the predictions so vastly wrong? 

All the polling,  all the exit interviews,  all the preconceived notions and opinions were dead wrong.  

My opinion is that the data gathering was flawed,  and therefore the conclusions wrong. 

If you query the wrong datasets,  you get the wrong answers.  Pretty simple.  The process needs to be revamped . Maybe the same way polls have been done in the past are no longer valid. Stop calling me already. 

Though it is really funny  watching experts look completely shell shocked.
