Nate Silver: Polls showing Clinton up 5 points not backed by data
Washington Examiner ^ | 11/6/16 | Daniel Chaitin

Posted on 11/06/2016 12:31:59 PM PST by SoFloFreeper

For supporters of Donald Trump who are discouraged by the latest slate of polls showing Hillary Clinton up 5 percent just days before Election Day, polling guru Nate Silver had some reassuring words Sunday morning.

"Some people are saying Clinton's up 5-6 nationally. That's just not a good representation of what the data says," Silver tweeted. But, he admitted, Clinton does have a lead.

Didn’t Podesta in the Wikileaks state that the polls were to be falsified so it shows Hillary ahead so as to depress the Trump supporters?Silver is confirming this with this statement.

They invented adblocker for that homey. I’d rather get ads and help a right-leaning site than go to the WAPO or CNN site and give them a clickpoint.

"The Washington Examiner web site is terrible with popups and ads. Just fyi."

If you are using Firefox they have an add-on called"disallow script". It temporarily prevents any script from executing. It gives you a button you can click on and toggle script on and off.

I use it all the time on "busy" sites and can go to a totally infected site and still keep my sanity. You only have to use it the first time and it's paid for itself (free). I lean on it a lot and would;t be without it. If you use it it defaults back to normal/on when you return to FR.

Comey just apparently did his part and cleared Clinton.

He did no such thing. He simply stated that the investigation of the FBI would not be re-opened based on the additional e-mails. How they could possibly have gone through all 650K e-mail remains to be seen, but that's his decision.

What hasn't changed, is the NYPD's investigation of Anthony Weiner, and they are free to make public any number of things about what was found on his computer, which includes those 650K e-mails purportedly from Huma to herself, or from others to Huma that she then sent on to the computer she shared with the Weiner.

Silver is a Dhimmicrap hack and Five
Thirty Eight is a Dhimmicrap site, so this is meaningful.

NBC News/Wall Street Journal Survey currently has Hillary at 48% and Trump at 43%

However, check out this breakdown of those they interviewed for this poll. Is it any wonder Killary is ahead?

Now I am going to ask you a few questions for statistical purposes only.....

A lot of people are unable to get out and vote for many reasons. Did you happen to vote in the November 2012 election for president? IF “YES,” For whom did you vote––Barack Obama, Mitt Romney, or someone else?

Likely Voters Voted for Barack Obama ........ 50
Voted for Mitt Romney ....................... 35
Voted for someone else ...................... 6
Not sure .................................... 2
No, Did Not Vote ............................ 7
Not sure .................................... 0

By the way? Who is not sure they voted?
