Why do polls say that they are accurate + - 3.00% of the time 19/20?

Asked by RedDeerGuy1 (24461points) January 11th, 2018

Can you work out the math and say what the real margin of error is. 3 + 0.95%? Would not it be 3.95% to -3.95%. Can one work the math out and explain the margin of error to me?
