Those who walk the deep weeds of politics immediately recognized that Ann Selzer had cashed-out and was going to retire after she transmitted the ridiculous polling that showed Kamala Harris was going to win Iowa by +3 points. The prediction was laughable, and the result showcased just how silly it was, Trump +13.
The reality was that Selzer, and the ideologues around her, posted the bogus weekend election poll in order to fuel an attempted “pro-abortion” narrative and boost female turnout in the November 5th election. The Sunday talks and corporate media ran with the narrative from the baseline of Selzer’s fraud.
Today Ann Selzer announces her retirement, “in order to pursue other ventures and opportunities.”
IOWA – Public opinion polling has been my life’s work. I collected my first research data as a freshman in college, if you don’t count a neighborhood poll I did at age 5. I’ve always been fascinated with what a person could learn from a scientific sample of a meaningful universe.
Beyond election polls, my favorite projects were helping clients learn something they did not know to help them evaluate options for their companies, institutions or causes. That work may well continue, but I knew a few years ago that the election polling part of my career was headed to a close.
[…] My integrity means a lot to me. To those who have questioned it, there are likely no words to dissuade. For those who know me best, I appreciate the supportive notes and calls reminding me that what drew me to them as friends, colleagues and clients was commitment to truth and accuracy — both in my professional and my personal relationships.

Another liar looking deep into the pits of hell.
Liars gonna lie, Ann. Was it worth it?
Of course it was! It didn’t change things, but taking a shot with that fraudulent poll was what Leftist proudly do.
Ecclesiastes 10:19
You can Wine me
And you can dine me
But the Money Talks.
(Look it up and see.)
Was it worth it? I imagine it will be…perhaps a book deal or a favor for herself or her friends. She did a good turn for the team, and she will be taken care of.
WB: “Was it worth it? I imagine it will be… ”
Or perhaps not! Remember President Trump’s warnings he posted several times before the election? 🙂
CEASE & DESIST: I, together with many Attorneys and Legal Scholars, am watching the Sanctity of the 2024 Presidential Election very closely because I know, better than most, the rampant Cheating and Skullduggery that has taken place by the Democrats in the 2020 Presidential Election. It was a Disgrace to our Nation! Therefore, the 2024 Election, where Votes have just started being cast, will be under the closest professional scrutiny and, WHEN I WIN, those people that CHEATED will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the Law, which will include long term prison sentences so that this Depravity of Justice does not happen again. We cannot let our Country further devolve into a Third World Nation, AND WE WON’T! Please beware that this legal exposure extends to Lawyers, Political Operatives, Donors, Illegal Voters, & Corrupt Election Officials. Those involved in unscrupulous behavior will be sought out, caught, and prosecuted at levels, unfortunately, never seen before in our Country.
From your keyboard to God’s ears
And that ladies and gentlemen is why we believe in the 45th 6th and 47th President of the United States of America. May
God bless him and his prayers in the name of Christ Jesus.
she got paid. What do you think?
I think you’re right.
But my guess is, whatever payment she got is now over. There will be a lot of competition for book deals now that so many leftists will suddenly need them.
And the Blob doesn’t take care of any of their own people whose usefulness is over. Hers is.
Hopefully the leftists Will no longer Have access to our money like they did, and many of them who have been accustomed to living high on the hog without any real work suddenly to find anyone who wants to hire them to not work
I think when she wakes up from her stupor, she will deeply regret it.
That whole 40 pieces of silver thing, not that the President is JESUS, but it is still a very large betrayal.
Yup… I agree, dougofthenorth! 🙂 🙂 🙂
President Trump posted today on Truth:
Donald J. Trump: 11/17/24
A totally Fake poll that caused great distrust and uncertainty at a very critical time. She knew exactly what she was doing. Thank you to the GREAT PEOPLE OF IOWA for giving me such a record breaking vote, despite possible ELECTION FRAUD by Ann Selzer and the now discredited “newspaper” for which she works. An investigation is fully called for!
Cushy think tank or academic job coming up.
No, I think fry cook behind Harris in the take out window would be more appropriate.
The topic of payment seems to be conspicuously absent from her resignation statement. The timing of her poll is also suspect … being released right before the Sunday morning talk shows.
It’s all over now, baby blue. How much did they pay her? Enough to retire.
Look out the saints are comin’ through…
(Linda K will understand) 🙂
You got it., Wordman!
“Strike another match, go start anew
And it’s all over now, Baby Blue
MAGA is ascendent!!
Did she get a $600k vacation home like Bernie did in 2016 when he endorsed Hillary?
Christine Blasey was paid via GoFundMe but I think the Democrats decided that wasn’t a safe way to pay shills.
Don’t forget Bernies 2nd sellout when his wife was exonerated of any wrongdoing for fraud while running a college into the ground in VT.
Not as good as a vacation house on Lake Champlain, but his wife didn’t have to go to the pokey.
Pollsters are out of business, because no one answers calls from them anymore, and they must rely on random samples. Everyone now has cell phones that screen their calls automatically. When I get a call from a pollster, my phone warns, “Unknown number, possible SPAM.” If I decide to answer, I can hear the click on the other end as the dialing machine connects to an operator and hang up before they start their spiel. So, the remaining pollsters must be faking their results.
Big Data Polls, Rasmussen, Trafalgar are trustworthy. The rest not so much. Nate Silver and 538 are a joke.
Rich Baris (People’s Pundit) was good too.
But I wish he would stop pronouncing “pundit” to rhyme with “pendant.” 🤣
I followed Rich Baris through the final weeks of the election and was impressed with his approach to polling. I didn’t notice his pronunciation of the word “pundit” but I will look for it, lol.
He pronounces it as if it were spelled “pundent.”
The habit is also catching by other media types. It’s kind of like the birth of “nucular.”
However, he does have a very good method for polling and is well worth following.
I wish people would stop indulging their urges for conformity.
Fwiw there are MANY different dialects/pronunciations in America which adds to the auditory spice of America’s life.
Fwiw Rich was raised near NYC in NJ.
I don’t understand why some people pronounce Fentanyl as “fentinol”.
Possible spam or not, MAGA DON’T POLL.
“my phone warns, “Unknown number, possible SPAM.”
Not an Apple fan; however, my iPhone doesn’t even ring if the caller is not in my contact list. Much less distracting.
Wish other phones (e.g., Unplugged) had that feature. I’d definitely switch.
She has that leftist look.
I made sure to tell family and friends, do not pay attention to the polls.
Yes, I remember Sundance telling us not to pay attention to the polls. So that’s exactly what I did. So no highs and no lows for me.
I don’t do polls or surveys as there is no benefit for me so I don’t give information for free
Should of retired from polling when she was 5.
Maybe she’s going to pursue new opportunities in world’s oldest profession after being “successful” in pollstertution.
I see what you did there.
Maybe she can become a roommate with that other fraudulent pollster, Frank Luntz……I’m sure Kevin wouldn’t mind 😉
Folks in that line of work do not do well, when they have to pay their clients.
My integrity means a lot to me. To those who have questioned it, there are likely no words to dissuade.
How about truth to dissuade. None of that either.
These people have absolutely no shame.
None.
And also no soul.
>> …there are likely no words [out of Ann Selzer’s mouth] to dissuade.
Spinning and blowing smoke to the very end.
Did Selzer not see the photos of the massive crowds at all the Pres. Trump rallies?
I don’t pay near enough attention to politics as she does and I knew what the election results would be, absent any fraud.
She was a great pollster till Kamala needed help.
They were both helpless.
This isnt the first time Ann intentionally used her polling reputation to serve the Deep State and their media psyop machines.
She intentionally did not release her much anticipated 2020 Iowa Democrat primary poll.
Why?
Because it had Joe in 4th place and Bernie in 1st place.
“….My integrity means a lot to me….”
Oh sure. Anyone that would sell their soul so that God’s most innocent can be legally torn to pieces has integrity..
*Spit
Another Filthy liberal bites the dust.
These people are complete losers.
FILTHY LIBERALS
“My integrity means a lot to me.” – Ann Selzer.
“I did not have sexual relations with that woman…Miss Lewinsky.” – Bill Clinton
“I am in possession of a smoking gun…there is direct evidence” (of Trump’s collusion with Russia) – Adam Schiff
“Trump is toast!” – Michael Moore (before the presidential election)
“We (Americans) are not a good people!” – Michael Moore (after the presidential election)
Kamala leads Trump by 4 points nationally – NPR/PBS/Marist poll 2 days before the election
Trump favored to win – Polymarket 2 days before the election
FBI raids home of Polymarket CEO – 8 days after the election
Obviously.
Lying twit.
“I’d like to buy a vowel–an ‘A’ “
It sure does, and she happily put a price on it.
All the accurate pollsters called this when that stupid poll came out the weekend before the election. She likely took a payday for that poll and knew it would destroy her credibility so she planned to retire.
Dear Ann, you might avoid fresh ventures and opportunities where integrity plays an integral role.
Go woke….

Bwhahahaha…Morally bankrupt skank. Spit.
Nuff said…
the question is, were you ever honest with anyone even or yourself, I think not.
Yes she was. Unfortunately, now she isnt.
Scott Adams hypothesized on his podcast this morning that perhaps Ms Selzer was offered a golden parachute by a Democrat donor to generate a bogus poll just before the election.
“My integrity means a lot to me. To those who have questioned it, there are likely no words to dissuade.”
It always amazes me… the pretense of “integrity”. Is it a commitment to the ideological cause as the highest calling? Then, I suppose that’s how they see it. Lying is lying is lying. And lying about a premise, as the scientific and academic communities have been doing for years, is still lying. Twisting the truth to fit one’s beliefs is still lying.
Remember the Obama crew stating they had a “scandal free” administration? No wonder people are disgusted with politics and media. Just a bunch of liars.
Hillary… “like with a cloth?” Endless gaslighting and manipulation. Most of America lives in the truth of their lives, every single day, day in and day out. Lying is not a time honored tradition for Americans.
BS peddler since she was 5. She didn’t make a mistake she was trying to affect the outcome of an American Election with her manufactured uniparty propaganda. integrity is not something that you give to yourself it’s earned by the quality of your product, and how you live your life and your product is fraud, so what does that make you?
Another swamp rat slinks off.
That’s an insult to rats!
IOW a professional liar.
The big red nose she will be wearing will go well with her red hair. BBBWWWAAAHHHAAAHHHAAA
Took the money and now she’s running away with it…hope it was enough to cover for the complete loss of self respect, Ann!
Operation Mockingbird Pollsters………………………….
I can’t quite picture a 5 year old polling their neighborhood.
A propagandist with credentials. How utterly impressive
Bye Felica 👋
She protests too much methinks.
“My integrity means a lot to me. To those who have questioned it, there are likely no words to dissuade.”
Your actions speak so loud that I can’t hear what you’re saying miss bubbly seltzer.
Wow! How much is your reputation worth? One can assume her price was pretty high?
Integrity is rather like virginity once you lose it.
I carried papers as a kid for the Des Moines Register over a half century ago. I can tell you from decades of observation and interaction: The hubris of these people is beyond our comprehension. They have gotten worse. Only continuous beatdowns will change them. They choose ignorance and are fools. Real change will happen when they lose their financial shirts and positions.
She had to quit for health reasons. She was putting on too much weight as a result from “fudging” the numbers………….
Wait till The white throne of judgment. She won’t be polling well.
In my life experience, I have found that Democrats lie. All. The. Time.
They think it is okay. They think it is clever. They think everyone does it. They think the end justifies the means.
This woman is a liar. And she is smug about it.
Maybe someone promised her a job for her poll.
How do I know she lied? MAGA doesn’t poll. Personally, I received many poll requests being in Maricopa County. I answered “STOP”. There are untold others who do the same. It doesn’t take a high IQ to know this, just someone who is normally observant. None of the pollsters adjusted for this. They did this on purpose. They knew. They were doing push polls.
This is a very poisonous belief that parallels the equally poisonous beliefs that ALL politicians, including ALL Republicans are corrupt, all media is “irreparably damaged” and all elections are too rigged to beat.
Some pollsters ARE corrupt and create the results they’re paid to produce, for a variety of reasons.
Others seek to be accurate no matter what price they have to pay.
To become educated about the science and art of political polling while learning alot of insider Intel I highly recommend watching Peoples Pundit which airs on you tube, rumble and locals Monday, Wedsday and Friday.
Miz Setzer might contact that trash-hauling company Trump briefly worked for. They might need a reliable driver.
I hope and trust she’ll end up sitting on a curb in downtown Des Moines drinking malt liquor that’s securely housed in a brown paper bag … ***burp***
When you suck at your job, its good advice to seek work in a different field.
Never heard of her. 95% of other independent thinkers probably never heard of her either. It must be horrible to devote your whole life to something and then realize how insignificant it was. Go so something useful, Ann. You’ll feel better.
I was inundated with political polling text messages for three months. I never once tapped the link to any of them. I was not going to give them anything. Plus, I do not use my cell phone as an internet browsing device.
“scientific sample of a meaningful universe” well what do you know that right there was her problem. Sounds as if she was looking for her sample in a universe that did not exist.
Integrity is 100% NOT in her DNA!
Guess her payment check from Harris/Waltz cleared before the bank acct was looted/emptied/stolen/over drawn. Her retirement plans have now been met.
She’s a total hack who took the credibility she had an torched it because of TDS. Incredible.
“My integrity” is gone. You lied.
Election Interference? Huh?
If only there were something in place to hold any and all responsible. Even better if their assets could be seized immediately. Seized, as in “Captured”.
If only?
Hey, what’s beautiful thing I have here? I don’t know what’s in it, but it was signed by President Trump on Sept 12, 2018, and is still in effect today. It has these words on the front, “Presidential Executive Order 13848”.
What possibly could this be? Well, as the expression goes, “Let’s see what happens.”
Q the duck boats! It’s another win for the Patriots!
Yes!! Many do not see…or are aware of what is happening behind what they think they see and know. All the executive orders..or many of them are still in tact….and were renewed by Biden!
And will soon come back into play!
They don’t call this the Great Awakening for nothing. And some have referred to what we are witnessing as……The Greatest Show On Earth!
In any event….the moment we are in is absolutely Biblical!
Good day to you Patriot!
