Getting harder and harder to pull the RealClearPolitics average back to Hillary.

Pathetic, democrats had a six point turnout advantage in 2012 which was considered a good turnout year with Obama on the ballot. The NBC pollsters are actually claiming that democrat turnout for Hillary is going to be eight points higher than it was even for Obama in 2012?!?!

That could backfire by persuading liberals to think the election is in the bag and that they can stay home in November. The left is pulling out all the stops and nothing, absolutely NOTHING, can be believed.

Market manipulation, as usual.

NBC/WSJ had the worse track record in the primaries. It was a joke. Always underestimating Trump’s numbers.

They are skewing the RCP average in Hillary’s favor and giving her a false sense of comfort.

Hitlery isn’t acting like she’s up 6 points.

Given their track record, why does anyone take this poll seriously?

However, if you look at true internals with correctly balanced weighing of respondents, everyone knows Hillary is still trailing. The very fact there are huge number of people now openly showing Trump election signs even in the supposedly “blue” states show that Trump is building a movement on a level few have seen before.

No, Hillary knows from her own internal polling where she really stands. The NBC/WSJ poll is meant to influence the voters who are undecided and those who want to vote for a winner. It is also meant to discourage Trump voters from going to the polls since Hillary's victory is inevitable.

"They are skewing the RCP average in Hillary’s favor and giving her a false sense of comfort."

Or it is linked to package deals to sell adds on the Lame-Streams. "Oh Hillary, your trending good, if you advertise more with us we can help you move the needle more". Trollops one and all, funny thing is, Trump hasn't even begun to spend in that arena and may not even....

This. For some reason, this seems to be a hard concept for many conservatives to understand.

Yes and I think the worst party of this poll, which is mentioned in the article, is that they polled 47 Obama vs 33 Romney supporters, but Obama only beat Romney by 3.9% in 2012.

thanks...not sure why they didn't use further down QF4: Looks like 45 RAT; 37 Repub

Generally speaking, do you think of yourself as a Democrat, a Republican, an independent, or something else? (IF "DEMOCRAT" OR "REPUBLICAN," ASK:) Would you call yourself a strong (Democrat/Republican) or not a very strong (Democrat/Republican)? (IF "NOT SURE," CODE AS "NOT VERY STRONG DEMOCRAT/REPUBLICAN.") (IF "INDEPENDENT," ASK:) Do you think of yourself as closer to the Republican Party, closer to the Democratic Party, or do you think of yourself as strictly independent? (IF "NOT SURE," CODE AS "STRICTLY INDEPENDENT.")

Strong Democrat ..............................22
Not very strong Democrat ................10
Independent/lean Democrat ..............13
Strictly Independent...........................13
Independent/lean Republican ............12
Not very strong Republican ..............10
Strong Republican ............................15
Other (VOL) .....................................5
Not sure ............................................ -
+ Results shown reflect responses among registered voters
