What I wonder is why no one is saying that Hillary is in real trouble because she cannot get above 50%.

Ever since Trump was polling 6% in the primaries, the mantra over and over and over again was that he did not have a chance because he could not go over 50%.

Why is no one saying Clinton is in real trouble because she is not polling above 50%?

Hillary could keel over with a seizure in the middle of her speech, the audience could boo Tim Kaine off the stage, and Bernie Sanders could throw his support to Trump and the popularity tracking would go to 43.9% Trump and 42.9% Clinton.

It’s all fiction.

Everyone knows that Hillary is crooked, oh yea Crooked Hillary and now they know that the DNC is crooked also.

People say that they can’t vote for her and really can’t work for a democrat.

Hillary, like her husband at most is worth 45-47% of the vote. Problem is, all she needs is the minority vote in the inner cities and that will push her over the top in states like PA and Ohio.

Don’t think this will happen this time around. If Hillary gets 40% she will be lucky.

What is noteworthy about this poll is that as partisan as they are the LATimes does not have Hillary up by 12 points.

The numbers will continue on their inversion progress for weeks.

The Clinton/DNC stuff is a mess that will explode.

Hillary will spend over a $1 billion in all and still won't get into office.

She's cooked, and anyone who is a supporter will look evil to everyone else.

So, does anyone think that the electorate will remotely resemble 2012 turnout lol? The Times sure does.

“Results are weighted to match demographic characteristics, such as race and gender, from the U.S. Census Current Population Survey and aligned to the 2012 presidential election outcome using self-reported vote in that election.”

..... Well .... Since it isn't the popular vote that determines who becomes the next president .... It's actually the Electoral College that will determine the outcome of the election ....

.... Enquiring minds want to know How the latest Electoral College Vote predictions are going. Has there been any movement at all or is it still static?

.... Considering this matter is so crucial .... I sure wish there would be more info and reporting on this subject so we know where we really stand in the upcoming election instead of just popular vote polls.

I want her to lose, but they said in 2012 that Obama was in trouble, because he wasn’t over 50%

In 2012 there were some 7 million people who voted for Bush who did not show up to vote for Romney. Had they shown up Republicans would have won.

They probably don’t even think that, but they’ve got to use some standard. Hopefully Hillary will lose and take her money and GO AWAY.

"Clinton is in real trouble because she is not polling above 50%"

Clinton is in real trouble because she is not polling above 50%. It is true.

Gore -- a '3rd-term' candidate -- was in identical trouble with sub-40 polling + high neg in the same July time period 2000.

I’m convinced none of that Floriduh Fiasco would have mattered had the media not held on to and then dumped the DWI crap on Bush the weekend before the election.

Just like we see in the Wikileaks emails, they love that collusion in dirty tricks with the willing and compliant media.

BE ON THE LOOKOUT!

Romney would have won, conservative republicans would have lost.
