In reply to Keisha.

The polls at the end were showing that it was going to be a tight race in the electoral college and that Hillary winning wasn't a sure thing. I for one was nervous that she would lose because some of her state lead averages had dropped to within the margin of error or even a slight deficit. But as a candidate Hillary had to stay positive and of course have fireworks ready in case she were to pull it off. Polls can only show you the trends and likely possibility but it's not a one percent prediction, nothing is. But when Barack Obama won, both times the polling averages showed that he had a strong chance at winning. Therefore the polls were right. When Hillary lost, the polls showed she had a weaker chance at winning and would possibly split the electoral college and popular vote. You can't trust any news networks to report the polls accurately. They will pick one or two polls and announce them without providing any context for that poll or information as to how it compares to the average of the polls. You have to do your own poll watching if you really want to know what the polls are suggesting.
