It is amazing how every “bad” Trump poll is “tabulated poorly”, “slanted/oversampling to Dems”, or “dismissed as outright lies”, but whenever there’s a poll favoring Trump, it’s just accepted on its face.

Online polls? Like the ones we always Freep? Please...

Polls won’t mean much until after the debates begin.

Personally I don’t believe any of these polls. I’m going by the number of people that attend their rallies and it’s not even close. So unless a poll reflects that, it’s worth nothing. But still I’d believe an online poll before anything that comes out of the LSM and the polling companies they employ.

Lots of folks here look correctly at polls. They look at the weightings, the demographics, the questions, etc. They know know that a bad poll that says good about Trump is as much a problem as one no falsely negative toward Trump. We know also that it’s fair to criticize the methodology if it warrants it.

I looked at this poll and to get their info you have to register. Beyond that they reveal little.
