I think when people say they’ll vote for Johnson, they really mean they’re staying home.

Also, how much of that remaining 14% is not Johnson/Stein/Undecided but actually “Bradley effect” (”Trump effect”?) voters.

Pray America wakes.

If the election is seriously over, why can’t Hillary put the race away?

This is what I'm wondering if Trump is so done - why the intensity on the media part and globalist cabal.

The media shills on the globalist take know where the money comes from and the globalist have had to come to realization that a Trump victory could occur.

The Uniparty Elites understand a Brexit type vote could occur and are doing there best to avoid that.

What is weird is at crucial time when one wants to court independents the establishment pushed Trump into a quasi independent.

This election is different due mainly to the genius nature of Trump and how he ran his race in a different medium. Trump ran in popular culture land rather than political pundit usually boring land. People have been engaged for a while now. Both candidates have 100% name recognition.

Trump is a master of the negative turn around the fact he is still alive and with in couple of points of these at best inaccurate polls is a great sign.

Hillary's vast right wing conspiracy is at work against Trump its truly bizarre!

Anyhow don't worry Trump Wins!

Sexgate hasn’t boosted Hillary’s lead, which is now well within the MOE.

I think the important data point here is that Hillary only leads after the tape because it reduced Donald Trump's support...her number did NOT increase very much at all. Mostly, his fell.

Trump needs to bring back those that he lost and he's back in the lead.

Remember how much Bush won in 2000 by.

The media will pull out all stops to get her carcass across that line, even with one manufactured vote, and declare the trace over.

So your saying that “Rasmussen has had a pro-Trump house effect this cycle, had him up by 5 or 6 in the third week of September, more than most others at that time.”?

The Rasmussen-less “Rasmussen” has not been as Right-leaning as when Rasmussen was actually running it.

Yes, you’re right. Look where Trump and Pence are campaigning this week.

Trump - FL, OH, NC, NH, ME
Pence - VA, NC

They’re focused on, in their opinion, competitive states - and they’re all rallies, not fundraisers where they can limit press visibility. They think even NH and ME are competitive! Trump hit PA earlier this week.

PIAPS?

She has rallies today in CO and NV and a fundraiser tomorrow in San Francisco. After that, nothing until the debate in Las Vegas on the 19th (putting her in her Wiccan sanctuary for a week to prepare/make sacrifices before the debate) - (a bit of /s there but couldn’t resist!)

But her surrogates are doing nothing but fundraisers until the debate (8 events listed), with Obama doing a get out the early vote effort in Cleveland on Thursday.

Why so many fundraisers if this election is “in the bag?”

Why isn’t Kaine doing lots of rallies?

Has anyone seen what is (apparently) happening in Utah?

Looks like Egg McMuffin might end up handing that state to Hillary, if he doesn’t win it himself.

I so not know of any non-snap poll that is not establishment. None of them should be believed. All want things to be the same.

Can this have any negative effect on Trump? Is Utah that important in terms of EVs?

Utah will go to Trump. It has been a tease from the get go. Kind of like all those stories about Clinton possibly winning Georgia or South Carolina. Not happening.

why do all the poll % numbers only equal about 96, not 100?

Yeah, that's another 4% unaccounted for. Trump and Hillary have 82%. Of the remaining 18%, I bet no more than 3% goes to the 3rd party candidates. That leaves 15% for Trump and Hillary, and at this point, I bet Trump gets 2:1 of those votes. So, that makes it Trump 49% Hillary 48%. Certainly closer to the truth than what's being reported by most of the polls.

It is my understanding Scott Rassmussan sold the polling and is no longer involved. So probably gone like the majority, liberal.

Didn’t Rasmussen change their polling criteria recently so it skews more toward Hillary?

Raise your hand if you believe Gary Johnson has any chance at 7%.

If voters really are as fickle as these polls try to tell us they are, Trump needs to talk right to the American people next debate and in ads:

Look, I’m not a perfect person, never said I was, but I’m the only candidate who will go to Washington and make a change. I’m not owned by special interests, I’m not going there to protect the status quo that pads the wallets of the elected at the expense of the American people. I’m going to finally fix the budget and debt crisis and immigration.

I need you all to keep the faith and vote on Nov. 8th. Hillary, a proven liar who tells you one thing and talks to her donors in private about something else, the media, and the republican establishment are going to go all out and try to destroy your opportunity to take back the Federal Government and make it start working for the American people.

He needs a simple message that will resonate and call out Hillary, the media liars and GOPe so they don’t believe the garbage and get disheartened.
