It would have been more accurate for the title of the article to say that the variation from previous polls was within sampling error. Saying it was "caused" by sampling error may lead to the (incorrect) inference that the sampling was done incorrectly.
Curtice's comments are, of course, entirely sensible. It's just the journalist who wrote the piece and the sub-ed responsible for the article heading likely don't understand statistical terminology.Comment
