Hillary Clinton’s lead over Donald Trump has increased to seven points, as more than half of voters say he is not qualified to be president.
That’s according to a just-released national Fox News Poll of likely voters.
Clinton receives 45 percent to Trump’s 38 percent. Libertarian Gary Johnson is at 7 percent and Green Party candidate Jill Stein gets 3 percent. Last week, Clinton was up by two points in the four-way contest (44-42 percent).

Matt Bevin was behind by double digits in the last batch of polls in KY in 2014.
He won by exactly the same margin.
I don’t know what the true numbers are but I know a D+11 poll is hot garbage, also with less than 20% indies.
I truly hope and pray you are correct.
“I believe a RAT +5 is recognized as more accurate number. Take 4 away from Felonary Clinton and give them to Trump and it basically tied.”
Except, Hillary is only 2 points ahead in a Johnson/Stein added poll ( reality) Which doing the Dems +5, would make Trump 3 points ahead.
Bill Mitchell just analyzed the pdf and reported that Fox used a D + 9 sample for this POS.
Last week, they used a D + 2 and reflected a much closer race.
Mitchell concludes that she must be losing badly if they can only give her a single digit lead.
Trump’s video troubles and subsequent attacks on GOP leaders are hurting the party. One indication is more registered voters now consider themselves a Democrat than a Republican -- by nine points (44-35 percent), compared to by four points last week (41-37 percent).
That is me. It isn’t good.

Their last poll was D+2. A poll that constantly shifts its demographics is useless. I don’t care if it shows Hillary up by 20 or Trump up by 20. It is a meaningless data point. As relevant as as a random number generator. It is created to make news. Period.
How can people possibly trust Hillary more on healthcare, immigration, security, economics and other issues? If this is true, we are lost.
Sampling Democratic voters at +9 is rather odd. I think in this election it would be more like +3 or +4 for the dems. Results might be more in favor of the Republican.

I’m all jazzed up, but I’m not 100% confident Trump will win enough swing states. This isn’t my daddy’s country.
Right now I don’t care how Trump wins, just that he does.

Give a link to your numbers on party affiliation...
Like I noted earlier, Hillary lost FOUR points in the span of several days.
She can’t sustain a lasting lead in a poll loaded with Democrats.
I look at the numbers and its almost mid-October and she’s nowhere near that popular.
If she loses four more points in a week, its gonna be closer to reality.
I used to take comfort in this D+9 or whatever it might be thinking the polls are completely bogus. Not anymore. It reflects reality because until the other party starts voting 3 or 4 times each it really probably is D+9
Not so fast, it might be true. This country is done. We sat by and let it happen. Women and minority voting blocks have marginilized us and now we’re paying the price.
