They had her measure, just like most of the UK public do who are over 24 (according to all the polls, 16 - 24's is where the majority of their support comes from).

They were caught lying, they presented the information as what they had seen, not what they expected to see. I'm unsurprised by the tedious denial, though.
As for it being "so spot on you'd swear they had seen it", see above re: confirmation bias.
I've still yet to have anyone link me to one of these polls, also, their validity depends entirely on where it was that ran the poll.
