The average of BS is still BS.

Unless you are able to swear to the accuracy and objectivity of the polls that go into this average, the result doesn’t mean much.

Polls are tools for rigging the system. Don’t be fooled by one favoring Trump, Charlie Brown.

If the media actually did their proper job, the this woman due to pressure would be in prison, or at least no where in the polls to be seen.

About PA, isn't it said that you got Pittsburgh and Philadelphia on either end with Alabama (red state) in between?

Philadelphia will be a challenge but I think Trump has an excellent chance to win a lot of Democrats in Pittsburgh over - with their base of blue collar workers. That, along with the rest of the state, should overwhelm Philadelphia.

Also, doing well in Pittsburgh should translate into success in Ohio as well.

I wrote in another thread that I searched “Hillary Clinton Logo Down Arrow” in Google Images this morning and in the search results appeared a photo of Colin Kaepernick.

No matter what the polls have been trending towards Trump for the last week or so.

Hillary has been in hiding and is not expected to make a public appearance before the debate on September 26. Hiding from the public view does not make Hillary look very Presidential and the polls are reflecting it. Is she going to hide from world leaders? If she going to lie down and take a nap when the going gets tough?

Yes that would be nearly 25%-30% of the dems voting for Trump.

I can’t vouch for the methodology but I can vouch for their Survey Director Jill Darling.

I emailed Jill E. Darling the Survey Director about a week ago when I noticed the scaling of the breakdowns was giving a visual perspective that Hillary was doing better then trump when comparing different charts. She emailed me back and said this ...and two days later the charts were corrected as she promised...All I can say is she is a lady of her word..

“Hello John,

Your point about the need for consistent scales is very well taken! We are in the process of working on making sure we are presenting those subgroup numbers in a way that makes good visual sense. What you pointed out about inconsistent scales is an artifact of the automated process of pulling in data and creating the graphs, and an oversight on our parts, not anything anyone here is doing to try to influence others. We just care about reporting our results!

Appreciated your thoughtful feedback, and wanted to let you know we’re already on the case. Should see an improvement in the information presented on that page in the next couple of days.

Regards,
Jill

Is that ratio from the poll where they are about tied?

I know that a similar ratio (626 Democrat vs 575 everybody else) was used by Reuters when they had her 12 points up...but wondering if they are still maintaining that kind of Democrat heavy sampling for their polls since Trump closed the gap...
