Polls on election eve, 2016.
Yes, and it wound up not just Trump winning, but actually being a landslide election (besides NY and Cali, muh 3 million votes). -

A survey from the Princeton Election Consortium has found that Hillary Clinton has a 99 per cent chance of winning the election over Donald Trump.
Three days before the election, Ms Clinton has a projected 312 electoral votes, compared to 226 for Mr Trump. A total of 270 electoral votes are needed to win.

2020-07-28 at 1:19 PM UTC"The results of Tuesday’s presidential election came as a surprise to nearly everyone who had been following the national and state election polling, which consistently projected Hillary Clinton as defeating Donald Trump. Relying largely on opinion polls, election forecasters put Clinton’s chance of winning at anywhere from 70% to as high as 99%, and pegged her as the heavy favorite to win a number of states such as Pennsylvania and Wisconsin that in the end were taken by Trump.
How could the polls have been so wrong about the state of the election?"

The term "Sailer Strategy" has been used for Sailer's proposal that Republican candidates can gain political support in American elections by appealing to working-class white workers with heterodox right-wing nationalist and economic populist positions.

2020-07-28 at 1:26 PM UTCNEW YORK (Reuters) - With hours to go before Americans vote, Democrat Hillary Clinton has about a 90 percent chance of defeating Republican Donald Trump in the race for the White House, according to the final Reuters/Ipsos States of the Nation project.
Her chances are roughly similar to last week's odds, and any upset by Trump on Tuesday depends on an unlikely combination of turnouts of white, black and Hispanic voters in six or seven states, according to the survey released on Monday.

Basically. Also Bannon noted that if you appealed to them then you could swing the election due to the way the electoral college is weighted. That's why Trump campaigned where he did.

I’m not saying I know 100% how he did it, I’m not a political genius. What I do know is your statement is true, but trump’s team had him strategically campaigning in the states that would give him the electoral college, and there’s nothing wrong with that. Why not do it? Choosing the cities to have rallies in with dense populations is also strategic.
Hillary overestimated herself that’s for sure.
I also believe there was a “silent vote” of trump supporters.
So I guess there were many factors, and many many more than I stated.
After the email dump Hillary tanked. And when was that? A week before the election IIRC. -

Why do you think that the emails hurt her election bid? -
2020-07-28 at 1:34 PM UTCFBI chief-antifa Comey came out and announced he was investigating her again about a week before the election. That did a lot of damage at a very crucial time.
There is no way in the world that the timing was accidental, although of course we are told that Comey and the FBI hate Trump. They certainly hate Trump voters, but at the higher levels who knows what goes on. -
