I'm pretty sure the statistical fuck up came from the fact that Michigan is an open primary and Sanders got a disgusting amount of independent voters in michigan. I'm not 100% sure (my knowledge on pollsters is limited to interactions with a few professionals), but they probably didn't account for the independent numbers.
