A five-day tracking poll backed by the Los Angeles Times shows Donald Trump leading Hillary Clinton, 43 percent to 40 percent.
The California newspaper hid the actual poll numbers in the eighth paragraph, including the news that Trump has the support of at least 30 percent of Hispanics.
...
Also, the poll shows Clinton with support from only 51 percent of Hispanics, and Trump with 30 percent support. That leaves 19 percent uncommitted, which suggests that Trump’s Hispanic ballot-box support may be significantly higher than 30 percent.
In 2012, GOP candidate Mitt Romney scored only 27 percent of the Latino vote, while President Barack Obama got 71 percent.

Rasmussen had Trump leading by 7 on Thursday, and the NYT had them even at 40 each. Yet, Reuters has Clinton leading by 12. It seems to me that Reuters must be on the Clinton campaign payroll, running phony polls in order to skew the Real Clear Politics average, and act as a rallying point for the campaign.

It has to be a blowout win for Trump. If it is close, fear the walking (voting) dead.
Reuters\Ipsos is an online poll and is an obvious outlier.
NBC/WSJ is another garbage poll. They consistently underpolled Trump by 5-8 points during the primaries.
Nah!! This is a BS POLL as are the other 5 or 6 showing DT ahead or tief with crooked Hillary.
I know this because the Gold Standard in polling, Ipos/Reuters has Clinton up by 12 </sarc>
Hillary only has 50% of the Hispanic vote. Obama had 70%. She is not going to make it.
The Hispanic macho culture will prevent many of them from voting for a woman. She’ll likely pick Julian Castro as VP to pander to Hispanics and homosexuals but I doubt that it will work.
Skewing the rcp avg is EXACTLY what this is all about.
Polling in the main is nothing more than psyops when engaged in by the Left. Good example is Brexit.
Reuters was an online poll.
The LA Times poll also uses funky methodology -- they poll a portion of a large single pool randomly on a daily basis. This is guaranteed to produce enormous fluctuations -- and headlines -- from day to day.
After what happened in 2012, when everyone flopped with their polling, it's anyone's guess if any methodology can overcome the problem of a large voting population with wireless service only, or if it's back to tea leaves, astrology and a ouija board.
(That said, I'd rather see Trump ahead by 7 on Rasmussen than behind by 7!)
NBC/Marist just spammed RCP with a bunch of clearly outlying polls to skew the averages.
I found a couple of interesting items in this piece.
One being that 15% of the voters have not made up their minds. WOW. To me that is absolutely astonishing, since this may be the most divisive election cycle in a while. GOP has damn near imploded and the Democrats have gone full socialist.
Second being this: “ Clinton would be the first Democrat to carry white college graduates since polls began asking such demographic questions in the early 1950s.”
That quote, in itself tells us just how far the American colleges and universities have fallen.
NBC/WSJ/Marist!
(And so WHO is the candidate who's taken gazillions of $$$ in Wall Street bribes?)
“NBC/WSJ/Marist!”
Right!
WSJ hates Trump and is working for Hitlery.
ISIS and Islam are helping MR TRUMP IMMENSELY!
Maybe that 15% finds they cannot vote for Hillary and they are considering the alternatives. The fact they are not set does not bode well for her even after the barrage of anti-Trump ads run all over the country by the Hitlery campaign and none for Trump. Once they get engaged, both the voters and Trumps organization, this could be a epic blowout in the making. When internals from virtually every poll shows that the populace wants substantive change of around 70-75%. hey want a new direction, period.
Trump and Hillary are fighting for 15-20% of undecided voters. There are many people who do not pay attention or are not motivated to vote.
Plus, note that this is only the people willing to admit that they’ll vote for Trump.
With today’s constant leftist-media propaganda portraying Trump and his his supporters as practically “racist Nazis”, you can bet there’s a whole lot of hidden Trump support out there - including lots that sat out 2012.
So if even Big Gay Media admits they’re now “tied”, then Hillary is REALLY gonna get schlonged in November!!
That's an interesting observation that I have also made in the past. You can easily draw that conclusion by simply looking at the Real Clear Politics average of Trump vs. Clinton over time. Every time the RCP poll average shows Trump closing the gap we get a flurry of pro-Clinton polls.
Take a look at the RCP chart below and you will see what I mean. Trump has reached a tie with Hillary 4 times and is heading toward a 5th. Watch for the Hillary "bounce" very soon.
Spot on.
These polls are just made up bull shit. Trump must really be very far ahead but they can’t say that so they just have him agead by a small margin. This way by saying they are close then the votes can be easily manipulated.
The most ridiculous poll was when they polled mostly democraps and both Trump and The Beast were still neck and neck.
