YOUGOV POLL: UNDECIDED AND THIRD-PARTY VOTERS LIKED TRUMP IN THIRD DEBATE
Breitbart ^ | October 20, 2016 | John Hayward

YouGov’s post-debate poll finds Hillary Clinton winning the third presidential debate by a 10-point margin over Donald Trump, 49 percent to 39 percent. However, undecided and third-party voters gave Trump a 22-point lead.

(VIDEO-AT-LINK)

When asked to chose only between Clinton and Trump in the 2016 election, 61 percent of undecided and third-party candidates picked Trump after the third debate, versus 39 percent for Clinton.

This could be an encouraging result for Trump, because 9 percent of respondents to YouGov preferred a third-party candidate, or professed themselves undecided. A statistically insignificant number said they did not plan to vote at all.

Clinton leads by 47 to 43 percent in the presidential race, according to YouGov – a margin-of-error lead that would become a razor-thin Trump lead, if he really did pull 60 percent of the third-party and undecided voters...

I believe You Gov poll is operated by Arianna Huffington.

As people get closer to voting they realize that it’s really a two person race. And while they might have at one point backed Jill Stein or Gary Johnson... many will make a decision not to throw their vote away.

I think the majority of those will break for Trump.

The common knowledge that Reagan won the last debate was first espoused after the resounding election victory. Before the election, it was mostly claimed that Carter did just fine.

I’ve been taking the YouGov polls for years. They are mostly consumer input polls about products but I have been selected a few times for these political issue polls. Love the $100 visa gift cards they send.

Gary Johnson is not going to get 7% of the vote. When they get in the polling booth look for at least half those voters break for Trump. Most folks don’t like to waste their vote.
