If Hillary wins the death rate by ISIS and other radicals will be in the thousands per weekly. There will be no end to terror.
Trump for President.
The sample error for this survey is +/- 4.8 percentage points when the design effects from weighting are considered. The sampling error for the 389 likely voters is +/- 6.3 percentage points.
In addition to sampling error, this poll is also subject to other sources of non-sampling error. Generally speaking, two sources of error concern researchers most. Non-response bias is created when selected participants either choose not to participate in the survey or are unavailable for interviewing.
Response errors are the product of the question and answer process. Surveys that rely on self-reported behaviors and attitudes are susceptible to biases related to the way respondents process and respond to survey questions.
Pretty high margin of error IMHO
Double post to make sure we saw it.
Beware the predictable polling onslaught to paint the potemkin village
“We are not, repeat NOT, going to exhaust unnecessary energy in the next 10 days to deconstruct the insufferably predictable media-agenda-polls that are looming on the near horizon.
The corporations who have a vested interest in manufacturing the Potemkin village have their collected pollsters armed with fresh paint to create the optics of a historic surge in polling upon the conclusion of the Democrat National Party Convention in Philadelphia.
This paint job has been planned for weeks, if not months.
You can count on a manufactured corporate-media pretense to deliver a carefully scripted narrative giving Hillary Clinton a post convention bounce around 10 to 15 points (+/- 3). -— July 28, 2016.
I’m not surprised... Hillary is leading but not by double digits.
MSM is coming out with a deluge of push polls.
Its to be expected.
None of them are random sample polls. They’re intended to send a message.
Trump is finished!
OK! But one poster in the other thread asked about the party affiliation in PA, given that this poll had relatively few Independents. I tried to answer:
I have no idea what the party affiliation looks like in PA, but with very few independents it looks like the pollsters have started to play with another “meme”.
Most polls, both before and after the conventions, seem to have more solidified support for Clinton among the Democrats than among Republicans for Trump. So, suddenly the number of D’s and R’s are growing and the I’s are very few, although the difference between R and D is within reasonable limits.
In most polls (like the FOX poll yesterday) Trump is leading among I’s (not in the NH poll today, though), so reducing the number of Independents will skew the poll towards HRC.
Does this make sense?
these orchestrated polls are designed to make a hag victory plausible in order to cover up the coming massive vote fraud. The ruling elite and the DC establishment will lie, cheat, steal and murder to get their way
Oh no! Not the Franklin and Marshall poll!! That’s it,it’s all over!!! We is doomed - doomed I tells ya!!!!
Pure...”HOGWASH”!!!
“Double post to make sure we saw it.”
What’s your point?
Couldn’t agree more.
I think the polls are intentionally biased to favor Hillary, (obvious to anyone).
However, I do think trump is f’ing up and needs to stay on message and not respond to baiting by the left.
There it is!
No one knows anyone who will vote for the witch except for the usual suspects, yet with fraud engineered into the system votes may not mean very much.
It's not working anymore.
Brace yourselves. Here come the deluge of push polls purporting to show that in NO WAY can Trump win.
All designed to discourage you and get you to stay home.
Not only a high MOE, but a very small sample. Trump and Toomey have also been mostly silent on the airwaves in the last week to 10 days. Every other ad here seems to be Hillary Clinton or Katie McGinty with their “I’ll fight for the middle class” shtick (yeah, like they’ve been doing as members of the ruling elite for the last decade or more).
Nearly of these polls are Dem oversampled, Indy and GOP undersampled and of RVs. See the pattern here? They are not scientific by any means and have huge errors and really don’t tell us anything. The LA Times poll does. This looks to be an all out attack by the Uniparty to keep the outsider out. Remember what they did to Herman Cain.
“Toomey have also been mostly silent”
That’s something that bothers me about this poll. Toomey has been running strong for awhile now. How does Toomey’s numbers flip so bad, right along with Trump’s?
Doesn’t pass the smell test.
Do remember, and he was in the lead at the time as far as I can recall.
