Pow: It's just a 2-point race, Clinton 38%, Trump 36%

The convention polling bumps for Democrat Hillary Rodham Clinton and Republican Donald Trump are over, and they are practically even, according to a new poll of likely voters.

A Zogby Analytics survey provided to Secrets Tuesday shows:

Hillary Clinton 38%

Donald Trump 36%

Here is the bad news to the legions of Freepers screaming the sky is falling for Trump. It is not. The Hillary convention bump was totally bogus.

Here is the really, really bad news for Hillary. She cannot break out of the 40% mark. As an incumbent proxy she is in mega trouble.

By October it will appear as if Trump is running unopposed and the word landslide will be the word most used to describe his candidacy!

I’ve predicted all along that the race would be essentially tied by the time we reach the debates (late September) and the winner will decided on who has the best debate performance.

Lot of undecided out there. The big question for this election is this - how many people are going to secretly vote for Trump, but will never admit it in public or to a pollster?

In real life Trump is ahead by 10 to 15 percentage points...and he really hasn’t started yet.

It happened a lot with Reagan -- especially when he ran for governor.

I won’t be convinced that Trump has defeated the Hellary Crime Syndicate until I see the Leftists on the “Morning Joe” jumping out of the windows at MSNBC. The thought makes me smile every time.

I think it will come down to the debates, if Trump wipes the floor with Clinton he becomes President, if its the other way around she wins..that simple..oh and whatever “October surprise” that comes out about Clinton that not even the Clinton kiss a@@ media can ignore

“The big question for this election is this - how many people are going to secretly vote for Trump, but will never admit it in public or to a pollster?”

The Zogby poll is an online poll so it should account for most, if not all of the ‘secret Trump vote’. The other online polls have generally been showing better for Trump than the phone polls, probably for this reason.

The horse race coverage is just filler ilo content. Way cheaper and easier to acquire.

This is the worst the media has ever been, because there’s also the Establishment people appearing with the biased liberals.

I expected MSM shenanigans all along. If this is all they can come up with this far out from the election, Trump is probably smoking her. I refuse to believe that Trump has ever been behind in real life and is likely leading handily.

Totally agree with your assessment.

There are too many Freepers or trolls who want to crap on his parade. Trump plays to win.
