The part that jumps out here (besides the 20% African Americans going to Trump) is that Trump has only a 5% advantage in this poll amongst men. If there is something here that doesn’t pass the smell test and makes you wonder about the sample, that is it. Common sense dictates a margin amongst men significantly greater than that.

Those planning to vote for Johnson need to reassess their priorities and realize their votes are only helping Hillary into the White House. Is that what they really want?

You're assuming that most or all of Johnson's votes are coming from people who would otherwise vote Republican. Given his liberalism on social issues and immigration, Johnson will probably get as many votes from disgruntled Democrats as from disgruntled Republicans, as well as from hardline Libertarians who never vote Democrat or Republican regardless. He's not the "spoiler" for Hillary that some Republicans fear and the Democrats are hoping for.

More importantly, come election day, Johnson's 9% will be more like 0.9% - in every election, Libertarians and Greens poll much higher than they actually perform.

What if Hillary says ‘no’ to the debates?
Does Trump debate Johnson and Stein with Hillary in absentia?
Or does Trump ignore Johnson and Stein?

Do Trump people actually respond? I doubt it. I wouldn’t give these polling companies the time if I had a watch on.

“Interesting what people will vote when they aren’t afraid of being shamed over the phone.”

What kind of pathetic excuse for a human worries about being “shamed” by some poll taker on the phone? I would think only those who literally fear their own shadow.

This is “rope a dope “ nd the rats are punching themselves out. One reason they have to is because she campaigns so weakly. Trump is everywhere!! Appearing today before thousands of people. Working!! for the vote. Where is she? she appears now and again in towns he has already been in but she has no real crowds at all. The media won’t tell us !! She has union props and of course the unwavering love and loyalty of Omar Mateen’s father right behind her at her invention!! She totally embraces the terrorist father!! She is pathetically ill and we need her medical records NOW!! 60% of democrats even want to see them before they vote!!

If blacks turn out to vote hrc might get 72% of their vote. But if they don’t vote, I’m sure “voter expansion” efforts will give hrc a minimum of 106% of registered voters due to “early voting”, done after the polls close.

hrc at 19%? Trump getting 20% of black voters? That’s before the hacks. Trump has to be ready to find a way to secure the machines. Honest vote, we may get 60 Senators and a Trump landslide.

Or maybe the Uniparty falses the vote.

“Trump gets 20% black support to Clinton’s 72%”

That’s huge.

Is Gary Johnson trying to be Donald Trump’s Ralph Nader?

Seriously why does Johnson bother running?
To give people a change, hell he is more of a liberal anyway.

Went off Noonan a few years ago. Now she is just an elitist establishment type.

Sorry, but those are disenchanted Libertarians, Democrats and Bernies propping up Johnson and Stein too for that matter.

These people don’t like testosterone strength and deplore tradition. TRUMP represents both.

” Glenn Beck: “I’m probably going to vote for Gary Johnson”

I used to love Glenn Beck. But the last few years the man has fallen very far off his rocker. I actually question his sanity now.

“She also leads by 13 among other minority voters,”

I don’t trust this...there are plenty of non-Cuban Latinos who support Trump. LEGAL Hispanic immigrants as well!!!
