There is a difference between flawed and biased. I think you need a 6-8 point shift to bring in back to where the race actually sits. However it is fairly consistent in its deviation from other polls. So it can be a useful datapoint once you acknowledge its bias.

It contributes to the suggestion that Clinton is beating trump by 5-8 points right now.
