Methodology: polls are weighted by recency (12-day half-life, hard 21-day cutoff), sample size, and pollster tier. RV and LV polls are shifted toward the adult-sample baseline using the offset from pollster-matched pairs (same pollster and field period reporting both populations) where available, otherwise the pooled 90-day offset — capped at ±2 points and halved when fewer than 5 matched pairs exist. The Adj column shows the points added to d.
