I promise not to gloat towards the few liberal acquaintances I currently have, after the Donald takes the Bitch down.

I dont know a single hillary supporter. NOT ONE. I know some of these traitors in our party but they are about to regret that crap big time. I was the first to predict a 50 state win for Trump. How can a human brain vote for an unindicted criminal, liar, and bribe taker ? Plus she keels over from very bad brain damage. How does she get a vote?

It’s anonymous, making it more a more realistic polling of people’s intentions...

Interesting.

It’s always a little dicey just relying on internet respondents, etc.

BUT.

I think there is also something to be said about the atmosphere that has been created by the MSM which probably makes some folks afraid to tell traditional pollsters (many of whom are affiliated with that same MSM) that they’re supporting Trump. This app may genuinely be reflecting some reality because that reticence is negated by it.

At least he is not wasting a lot of money on expensive backdrops.

Can’t be true. NBC, CNN, ABC, CBS, FOX, all have Clinton ahead by as much as 20%. And because they are TV that means the polls are right.

The only poll is election day

It’s definitely interesting, of course we have no internals but it’s at least encouraging.

Also interesting that they referred to seeing this trend with their app during the primaries and it went against the conventional wisdom of the polls.

Interesting. I didn’t see it alluded to, but I am assuming you can vote only once.

Apparently this APP takes your question and like Instant Messages it across the country to all subscribers, then they answer with a choice, it instantly tallies them and provides you the answer or percentages of choices............shrewed!.......

I think what we are seeing so far in this election, aside from the polls skewing toward too many Dems, is that the intensity is way on Trump’s side.

Even if there are more Hillary voters..which remains to be seen, the Trump voters are FAR more fired up and likely to go to the polls.

I think we may see a flip of 2012 where Hillary polls like Romney did, thinking she has a lead or momentum going in to the final weekend, but 3 or 4 % of her voters simply find something else to do. Which would basically flip the 2012 map.

Of course, the voter fraud aspect makes all of this really impossible to figure out.

The other wild card is Johnson and Stein. I still find it very difficult to believe Johnson has enough name recognition to get 8-9 percent. Stein is at three...you’d think she COULD be a landing spot for some Bernie voters but I think the media is going to freeze her out. If they played her up, they could get her to the 8-10 range probably.

Did Obama run ads in California? I’d think the witch wouldn’t just ignore the state altogether.

Probably, but not much. IIRC, McCain and Romney didn’t.........

The interviewer is a moron, but the app developer sounds like a solid guy. Very interesting how the developer notes that people are being more honest using his app because they are truly anonymous, and aren’t so worried about getting abused for supporting Trump. And I think he is making a good point.

Hope this is right but Real Clear averages usually prove true.

Remember how it show Obama would beat Romney even thought Romney had huge crowds.

Same thing said in 2012. Lord I pray you are right this time. We can’t afford to be naive like in 2012.....that thread is BRUTAL.
