Trump’s probably higher. They’re getting to the point they can’t afford to keep faking the poll numbers.

I think you are right and other MSM should soon follow or forever be discredited

the okeefe tapes are really helping show who the corrupt are and who not to trust-hillary and the dems. htat hws not really had time to show up in polls yet

--Washington Post Poll?......they must be apoplectic!..............

The cynical part of me says this is just a ploy to get rat voters to the polls.

Speaking of Arizona, I heard a rumour there is a poll out today that has Hillary ahead by 5% in AZ...using a D+34 sample.

This in a state which is R+5.

Can anyone with more info access right now confirm?

the establishment gave fnc the throwaway third debate because it has the lowest viewership and least chance of changing opinions.

yet we have Kerry ORDERING equador to shut down wikileaks by taking away assange’s vcr.

That's what I think too. If these organizations want to maintain their credibility for future elections, they will have to start reporting results that better reflect actual voters.

If he’s doing well in a Washington Post poll, imagine how much better the REAL numbers are!

These results are great... but... Jim Hoft is cherry picking again.

The same poll shows all of these BULL results
AZ - Hillary +3
Colorado - Hillary +7
Georgia - Hillary +4
NH - Hillary +9
NC - Hillary +6
Texas - Trump (only) +2
VA- Hillary +11
PA- Hillary +6
Hillary up big in WI, NM

Sorry, but not sure how you take a poll of 15 “battleground” states from WashPost, a notoriously liberal source, and cherry-pick only a few and discount the others.

I think the WP polls are crap. Period, but that’s just my opinion.

Q2 in the link shows the same advantage claimed in the article though.

IA 45-40
FL 45-43
OH 44-41
NV 44-40

I agree about the polling period being dated (Oct 8-16)

It's hard to keep faking the news. Reality eventually hits even the most die-hard Hillary supporter.
Like back in 1980 when the LSM kept saying Reagan didn't have a chance, then as the election neared, BADA BING! the polls began to tighten up. Even a rag like the Wash comPost must realize that at least appearing to be objective and credible, no pun intended TRUMPS giving aid and comfort to Her Henious.

Vote, vote, vote. We live in, lost cause Illinois, yet our family is fired up about voting for Trump/Pence.

Bill and Hillary Clinton are the penicillin-resistant syphilis of our political system.

Went back and looked again, and you’re right about the date, but the 2nd question matches the numbers Hoft is reporting. The other states don’t look so good. And they have Texas so close it’s hard to believe any of it.

That’s exactly what it is. All of these Hitlery +8, +10 polls will magically get closer come 1-2 days before the election; too big a lead in the polls suppresses the vote. Of course, one could make the argument that a large deficit creates voter apathy as well, but in Trump’s case, the silent majority makes up for that factor.

Also, look at where they’re campaigning. If Hillary was way up, as the coopted media would have us believe, both campaigns would be in red states, Trump to defend territory and Clinton to go on offensive. Instead they’re duking it out in the traditional battlegrounds, plus blueish WI.

One particular highway interchange I regularly use in Virginia suddenly sprouted Gary Johnson signs over last weekend. Today, it sprouted some Trump/Pence signs.

The Beast is conspicuous by her absence.

he might see a landslide similar to Reagan.

When that happens, I’ll go out in front of our house and dance in the street.

King David did it, why not me?
