      Polls are all about probability. They can’t predict the future. So, even though Hillary was likely to win, there was still a chance that Trump could win. Does this mean that polls are useless? No, because knowing the popularity of your candidate relative to the other candidates is important information.

      Almost every poll had him winning within the margin of error, 2016 was never certain, just like this election isn’t.
