McCarthy says there are no undecided voters: ‘That’s a myth’

Former Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) said undecided voters are a “myth” during an Election Day appearance on Fox News.

“I learned that pollings are never right. When election comes, you learn what was wrong in the polling,” McCarthy said in a clip posted to Grabien.

He later said a number of Republican voters opt out of surveys, which skews results.

“Nate Cohn writes that Republicans are 16 percent less likely to answer the phones and the polls,” McCarthy stated, referring to a New York Times reporter who analyzes polling and election data.

The former House leader then added that undecided voters do not exist.

“There is not an undecided voter in America. That’s a myth,” he argued.

In recent days, both candidates have spent time courting undecided voters in swing states such as Pennsylvania, as statistics show them tied in national averages.

Analysts believe the election winner could be determined by a small margin of ballots that sway the Electoral College in their favor.
