This poll and the latest PA poll with Trump down only 2...in the margin of error...both after the conventions..not bad at all.

BTW...this is a “likely voter” poll of 400. Trump trends better than Hillary in almost all “likely voter” polls, regardless of oversampling.

The poll shows 30% Repubs and 27% RATS and 41% Ind.

Praise the Lord! Just converted a Clinton voter to Trump today in NC. She had swallowed all the MSM junk about Trump and I explained the real deal too all her questions. Also here is a good response from a fella in NC, Steve Noble, to Christians who are considering sitting out the election, good read, pass along to those that need it.

A good dose of common sense is needed in some circles. This is it.... By Steve Noble July 26, ... what these ‘Never Trump’ Christians propose is the same as Pontius Pilot trying to absolve himself of blame for crucifying ...

I asked the Senior Ethics professor at Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary what he thought of Christians who are refusing to vote for Trump. He didn’t hold back.

Steve: “What do you think about Christians who refuse to vote for Donald Trump?”

Professor: “I think it is a perfectionist mistake. And it is a version of the ‘all or nothing’ mentality Jesus opposed in telling his parable of the field of wheat mixed with tares.

Francis & Edith Schaeffer warned that in this world, those who insist on perfection or nothing will always get nothing. And in moral as well as spiritual terms, what these ‘Never Trump’ Christians propose is the same as Pontius Pilot trying to absolve himself of blame for crucifying Christ by washing his hands.

The fact is that in a democracy, we ALL have a vote and ALWAYS are responsible for how we use it. Refusing to vote, or throwing your vote away on an impossible write-in candidate, does NOT absolve those doing so from blame, but rather it MAKES them responsible for favoring the election of the WORST electable candidate. Pilot WAS to blame for crucifying Christ, and those throwing away their votes in the name of absolving themselves WILL be to blame for favoring the WORST candidate.

God does not call Christians to vote for sinless candidates, nor does he call Christians to only support ideal governors. The ONLY choice Christians have in this election, the only choice they EVER have had in a fallen world, and the only thing God EXPECTS of them…is to vote for the COMPARATIVELY better of the available candidates.

There IS no other possibility, and there WILL BE no other possibility on this earth until Jesus comes back. So, unless Jesus comes back before November 2016, Trump (despite his many flaws) is the comparatively better candidate, and Christians not voting for Trump (out of concern for his flaws) will be morally to blame, in the eyes of God, for favoring the election of Hillary Clinton.

They CANNOT wash their hands of it, CANNOT absolve themselves of blame, CANNOT have a better choice, and CANNOT please God by sitting it out.

Jesus’ parable of the wheat mixed with tares is given only once in Matthew 13:24-30. But in it he addresses the question of how God expects faithful Christians to live in a politically mixed community with sinners in the present sinful world. The field, Jesus says, represents the present world.

And although God does care about a perfect world to come, he does NOT make Christians responsible for perfecting the world (weeding the field) before Jesus comes back. Perfecting the political world cannot be done without ridding the world of sin, and ridding the world of sin cannot be done without ridding the world of sinners. THAT is in fact the DIFFERENCE between Biblical Christianity and ISIS ideology.

In a spiritually and morally imperfect world in which Christians live in mixed community with non-Christians, God does not blame Christians for cooperating with sinful rulers but only calls them to be a Godly moral influence that favors right over wrong rather than insist on perfection or nothing at all.”
