That wasn't a poll. It was a calculation the NY Times 'Upshot' statistical model came up. Incidentally 90% means there is still 1 in 10 chance something will happen. 1 in 10 is nowhere near an impossible possibility.

But anyway as I said that wasn't a poll. The actual popular vote polling had:

Clinton: 46.8
Trump: 43.6

A Clinton lead of 3.2%.

The actual results were:

Clinton: 48.2
Trump: 46.1

A Clinton lead of 2.1%.

So the popular vote average of polls was only 1% out....
