Not sure what is up with these polls. Last few days have seen a shift back to Clinton; PPD, LA Times, now Rasmussen. Who knows? Could be the Labor Day weekend effect, could be the media minions getting back in line or it could be real. At any rate, she's still at only 43% but it's ridiculous that these polls consistently swing 5 or more points in a week. We'll see what's what as time goes on.

If you want to see the demographics, you have to register. Anyone?

Could be with only a current response rate of 3% that polling in the internet age is worthless except as a cheap means for the MSM to drive a narrative and send a signal to the campaigns to spend more money on advertising.

If Johnson even gets 3% on election day I’ll be stunned.

The polls will continue to go back and forth until election day. Regardless of the polls, good or bad, as another Freeper said a few weeks ago, we should play this as though we are down by a touchdown with 5 minutes left in the game.

At this point they’re probably polling 200 likely Democrat voters and no Republicans or independents. That’s why the results still show Hillary leading.

There is no reason for the big shift in momentum toward Hillary over the past week. She had a terrible week and at the same time Trump was "presidential" and had a great week. These polls are meant to discourage Trump supporters and bolster the fading support of Hillary.

I know who I'm voting for and nothing is going to change my mind. None of us have any control of these polls other than to get out and vote and prove them bogus.

The polls will continue to show a close race, with Hillary in the lead, up until election day. Whether true or not.

This is required so that, when they steal the election through voter fraud and ballot-stuffing, they will have the polls to back up the “results.”

Our country is dead. The outcome is already decided.

National Poll Shows Donald Trump Surges Among Hispanics, African Americans
Breitbart.com ^ | 8 Sep 2016 | Neil Munro
Posted on 9/8/2016, 5:43:51 AM by Rockitz

Donald Trump is favored by one-in-four African Americans and one-in-three Latinos, according to a poll conducted by the Boston Herald and Franklin Pierce University. The poll of 1,025 likely voters was conducted by RKM Research for Franklin Pierce University and the Boston Herald, from Aug. 31 to Sept. 4.

Overall, Franklin Pierce gets good marks for its polls and the results are in the same ballpark as many other polls. For example, the poll showed Clinton ahead by three points, 44 percent to 41 percent. Eight percent of respondents back Gary Johnson.

The poll showed that Trump has a very favorable rating among among 18.4 percent of 105 Hispanics, and 10.5 percent of 101 African Americans. He also scored a “somewhat favorable” rating among 16.4 percent of Hispanics and 13.3 percent of African Americans. Combined, he gets a positive rating from 35 percent of Hispanics and 24 percent of African Americans.

That’s apparently better than Gov. Mitt Romney, whose nationwide ballot-box score in 2012 was 27 percent support among Hispanics and 6 percent of African Americans.

Trump isn’t going to win a majority of either bloc. Forty-nine percent of Hispanics and 69 percent of African Americans have a “very unfavorable “ view of Trump. But every percent of Hispanic support helps Trump in the critical state of Florida, and every percent of African American support helps Trump in a few northern states, such as Ohio, Michigan, and Pennsylvania.

Scary Johnson was asked on Morning Joe something about Aleppo, and he said "What's Aleppo"??? Barnicle said "Are you serious" and he said "yeah, what's Aleppo" or something like that!! They were SHOCKED!!

He's nothing but a POTHEAD GADFLY, so I don't know why they were shocked!

Curious why the thread title says the party “Green”, while the Rasmussen article says the candidate “Stein”.

Oh, and speaking of Stein, should designate a prison for candidates for President that deserve to be or soon will be in prison. We’re up to 2 now.

Hillary is still polling in the low 40s.

Even if they have adjusted party ID to show her ahead, the fundamentals of the race haven’t changed.

Its still within the MOE.

The notion the electorate changes their mind from week to week, I think its highly unlikely.

It seems Hillary is surging again. The USC/LA Times tracking poll has her back up again as well.

It makes no sense because she has had a bad couple weeks while Trump has done very well.

Maybe sympathy votes for her coughing attack?
