USC Daybreak Poll - Change in methodology?

Posted on 08/14/2016 5:23:27 AM PDT by mrs9x

What is up with the USC Daybreak poll? There has been a huge swing toward Hillary over the last two days. It is a 7 day rolling average, so I cannot fathom how there is this huge swing over two days without some change in methodology.

No methodology needed when outright lies are used. The powers that be are having to make it look like a tight race so that when the votes are counted they magically elect Hillary by a few thousand votes. This way no public outcry and the queen gets elected. They are playing us like a fiddle.

Zikes!! It does have Trump down by 5.

What can you do? I think we do have a semi reliable poll here, so when Trump picks up 10 after the first debate, we’ll be set :)

It’s neither one. It’s just the left doing what they do best; lying their eternal souls to a black, charred clinker.

It just seems weird. There has not been this much of a swing in this poll to date.

I wonder also when stuff involving the Clinton Foundation and Wikileaks starts to take hold what sort of an effect that should have (or maybe wishful thinking on my part)?

Actually, its called Trump overload. He’s all they discuss on tv day and night and they see videos of him all the time saying negative things about Hillary. Not much discussion about Hillary these days, bad or good.

The DNC, GOPe, and the MSM are frozen in time since the DNC email hack.

Oh no, at this point Muskie was leading Reagan by 15 points ony to lose 49 states what are we to do?

Most polls now that favor Hillary over sample democrats, blacks, use registered voters or just make it up.

As we get closer to the election they switch to likely voters and balance out the demographs.

It’s a lagging poll perhaps there were still some of the days where Trump was up or even in the polls from a few days ago.

It’s no biggie. 5 points. Let’s take each day and see where it is.

After labor day things start rocking and rolling.

Speaking of polls, on Fox News, a few minutes ago there was a discussion of some poll that showed Trump with only 1% support among black voters. Yes, 1%, it was said several times by Tucker Carlson and shown at the bottom of the screen, also.

That sounds ridiculous with polls in the past showing Trump with up to 20% support among blacks and many polls showing better than 10%. Didn’t catch the name of the polling organization, but it definitely showed only 1% support.

Donald J. TrumpVerified account ‏@realDonaldTrump My rallies are not covered properly by the media. They never discuss the real message and never show crowd size or enthusiasm.
