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?

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.

“Does this make sense?”

Yes. But the bigger point is we can’t be driving ourselves crazy spending time (at least this far out) trying the figure out the nuances of each poll but to keep strong, spreading the message and not allow the demoralization campaign waged by the MSM to work.

Look with the Wikileaks dump we all know now the MSM is officially an arm of the DNC and remember that going forward.
