I think you're confused, Nate Silver is famously one of the worst political analysts, and is openly ridiculed for saying stupid shit like you are while making bad calls. Not surprising that you didn't understand that "as reliable as Nate Silver" was an insult.

Wherever you get your polling data from doesn't matter because polls don't actually matter. You're just a wonk who thinks getting polling data from illegal gambling operations makes you special.
