A month ago Clinton actually led 46/41 but both she and Trump's support has dropped by 4 points...

Well DUH! Those pollsters and writers are idiots, (or assume the public is idiots)

A month ago was just 10 days after the RNC when Trump had a "bounce", and few days after the DNC when the MSM polls SWORE that Cankles had a huge bounce.

Also, a month ago, all Bernouts were definitely "decided" who they wanted, plus many Cruz fans, and even Kasich fans still wanted their own guy.

So there are no surprises here that large numbers of voters are still UN-decided.
Its not even surprising that MSM pollsters continue to over-sample "registered" Dems by 5%, and over-sample women, often by as much as 10%.

I like to watch the ISW poll, which I presume it may over-sample in Trump's favor by about 5 to 8%, but this poll was super handy during the primaries and it is very good for spotting trends.

Note the OHIO "trend" below for Cankles !

This poll says it used respondents who were (36.3% Republicans, 35.7% Democrats, and 28.0% Other).

ISW says it "was started in March 2012 by two friends with two very different views of politics. We are constantly finding and building new ways to boost voter engagement and education using information, data, and breaking technologies."

The methodology of this poll is comparable to the (UPI Cvoter, USC LA Times, and PPD) polls,
where THIS poll averages 30 days of online results for each data point, where as the later 3 poll average 7 days of online results for each data point.


By comparison to these four polls above, the Reuters/Ipsos poll is total garbage; that one is the most left-leaning Soros-led junk poll.
