Voters switching to Trump after the debate is a clear indication of a Trump victory. He was in his first ever one-on-one debate last night, and Clinton in her 40th.
Trump won in so many ways, but viewers switching to Trump over Clinton say that Trump took care of the most important business: He had people accepting him as president.
AwesomeTrump!

That is, he doesn’t have to wow them. He merely has to show them that he’s not batsh** crazy.
I think he gave a lot of them an excuse to vote for him last night. Or at the very least, feel more comfortable not voting for Hillary, due to less fear of trump winning. He may have really helped out the third party candidates in that way. ;-)
Voters switching to Trump after the debate??? That’s great!
I think we were all looking for the knockout punch, but I think the general public saw that on 9/11. What they were looking for at this point was to determine whether or not Donald Trump is “presidential”. Trump took Hillary to the woodshed on economics and America First during the first half hour. After that the moderator and Hillary tried to tag team him on a bunch of stuff that is really not relevant to regular people’s lives (the birth certificate, whether or not Trump thought some women were fat and unattractive (let’s face it, some women are - and a lot of men are too), whether or not Trump paid his “fair share” in taxes.
On the issues that are really important in this election (National Security, unfair trade agreements, loss of manufacturing and service jobs to outsourcing and importing of H1B job stealers, infrastructure, the military) Donald wiped the floor with her.
If you turned off the debate after the first hour (I was really tempted to do that myself) then Trump was magnificent and hillary was completely unmatched. But after they tag teamed Trump with stuff nobody really cares about, Trump came off looking a bit frazzled. On the issues that count, Trump won hands down. On the issues that nobody cares about, Clinton had the upper hand assisted by Lester Holt (who apparently got his questions from the Clinton campaign headquarters).
So when you clear out all the fog, Trump was clearly the winner.
Let’s see how the polls react.
