Another suspect US polling firm vanishes as the fake-pollster scandal that may have swung 2026 primaries deepens

President Trump says the New York Times should apologise for running fake polls. The row centres on a bogus polling outfit, Wedgewood, which may have moved the results of some Democratic primaries in 2026. Another suspect firm has now disappeared under scrutiny, and the affair is being called a 'major scandal'.

Nate Silver says the fake-poll scandal fuels the distrust in polling that Trump has pushed.
