Gallup's final likely voter poll gave Republicans a 15 point margin on the generic ballot, the largest of any major poll and far beyond the average of 6-7 points. The actual result, based on both the national exit poll and votes tabulated thus far, appears to be between 6 and 7 points.

Not only did Gallup miss the actual vote margin by a mile, but their projections about the composition of the midterm electorate were also way off the mark. Based on the exit poll results, it appears that the actual electorate was not nearly as male, old, Republican, or conservative as Gallup's final likely voter sample.
