WBUR Poll: After Conventions, Clinton Up 15 Points Over Trump In New Hampshire
WBUR ^ | 08/04/2016 | Anthony Brooks

According to a new WBUR poll of New Hampshire voters, Hillary Clinton is enjoying a dramatic post-convention bump and now leads Donald Trump by 15 points. Our poll also shows Democrat Maggie Hassan with a big advantage in her bid to unseat Republican Sen. Kelly Ayotte.

Democrats Unite Around Clinton

The last time we polled in New Hampshire, three months ago, the presidential contest was virtually tied. Our new poll (topline, crosstabs) of 609 likely New Hampshire voters, conducted July 29 through Aug. 1, shows Clinton leading Trump 47 percent to 32 percent. When Libertarian Gary Johnson and Green Party candidate Jill Stein are omitted, Clinton's 15-point lead swells to 17 points.

Among the most important reasons Clinton has moved ahead so dramatically in this important swing state following last week's Democratic National Convention is that Democrats are uniting around her.

"After all the hand-wringing about whether Bernie Sanders supporters would end up supporting Hillary Clinton, she's now getting 86 percent of the Democratic vote," explained Steve Koczela, president of the MassINC Polling Group, which conducted the WBUR survey. "Donald Trump, on the other hand, has slipped a bit among Republicans. He's now getting a bit less than two-thirds of the Republican vote."

The statistical margin of error in a sample that small is enormous. Even worse if the sampling was in an already biased group to begin with.

Cover for the massive vote fraud in November is my guess.

And some folks just blindly walking by, cheerleading, oblivious....he has a real problem on his hands it isn’t just one poll it’s damn near all of them. One would have you believe it’s all a conspiracy however when there is 1 finger pointing outward with 100 pointing back it’s hard to say I’m not the issue.

It’s normal to get a bounce.

I hardly believe that. Ask any Bernie supporter especially what happened last week. If the dems are soooooo united, why are Hillary rallies so small??

This is propaganda not science. It is metaphysically impossible for that result to be true. Mussolini would garner more support than that running against HRC.

I heard Trump say yesterday “New Hampshire is looking good” (for him).

Another poll there the other day had Trump up 9 points.
Go figure.

We can’t laugh at the old Soviet Union anymore when it comes to state propoganda. If the news coverage of this election isn’t propoganda I don’t what is.

The crowds at Hillary events mean nothing. The left is unifying, and the GOP has successfully fractured itself. There needs to be a huge scandal or something massively unifying.

CONFIRMED: Pollsters Loading Polls with Democrats to Give Hillary a Lead Over Trump

Donald Trump shattered the previous GOP primary record by 1.4 million votes this year — and that was with 17 candidates in the race!

Hillary Clinton received 1.5 million fewer votes this year than she did in 2008 - when she lost!
Democrats are in a panic. So leave it to the media to jump in and help their candidate. Reuters tweaked their polling methods this week to give Hillary a lead.

Reuters -Ipsos used more than 100 more Democrats in their poll to give Hillary a lead over Donald Trump. Does anyone in their right mind think DEMOCRATS will have more people voting this year than Republicans?

This is utter nonsense. How can they publish such crap with a straight face? It has zero credibility.
