A Partial Answer

Last week we were talking about the divergence between polling results and the electoral outcomes in the Hong race. Partly, it turns out, it's because some of the polls were what is called in military provenance an "Information Operation."
Median Strategies was created as a short-term social experiment examining how purported polling information could enter and spread through the political information ecosystem without independent verification. 

Thank you for your understanding.
Believe me, the last thing they want is for people to understand what that means.

But other polls (Marquette, etc) found similar results.
I have a bunch of questions--starting with "Who selected the polls to report on?"

Yes, it's only a partial answer. However, it confirms the intuition that only fraud of some sort could explain the delta -- fraud is now confirmed here. (They also published fraudulent LA Mayor race surveys, where there were similar questions.)

So we still need to understand just how much fraud was involved, where it was located, and how it played out. That this wasn't a simple 'divergence' is now proven.
