Investor's Business Daily ^ | 10/19/2016 | John Merline

Posted on 10/19/2016 9:47:46 AM PDT by IBD editorial writer

After more than a week of blistering attacks from Democrats, celebrities and the press, Donald Trump has managed to pull ahead of Hillary Clinton by 1 percentage point — 41.3% to 40% — in a four-way matchup, according to the new IBD/TIPP poll released today. Libertarian candidate Gary Johnson got 8% and Green Party candidate Jill Stein got 6%. The results are the first in the IBD/TIPP presidential tracking poll. Daily updates start Thursday and will continue until the election. The IBD/TIPP poll previously was monitoring support for the candidates in the 2016 election on a monthly basis.

How can this be? ABDNCFOXBS-FR is saying she is leading by double digits and the race is over.

Pray America wakes

Crooked Hillary has spent hundreds of millions of dollars and can’t break out of the low 40s, in this case getting 40% by a cat’s whisker. Not good for the incumbent party.

Her honest question would be, "Why aren't I down by 50 points?"

You can bet your butt that if they are conceding a one point advantage to Trump going into the eve of the debate, he is far advance from that lead.

All polls that show Clinton with large leads, are designed to suppress trump turnout. All polls showing close races in solid trump states are designed to bait trump into diverting money from the true battleground states. Carvilles fingerprints everywhere. This is a dead even race and Clinton has shot her last wad.

I believe this is the first poll showing Jill Stein getting significant support (from Bernie supporters). I believe that is genuine. This poll looks credible to me.

Awesome. Nice to have some MSM type polls to confirm USC/Lat Times, PPD and Rasmussen polls.

IBD/TIPP was the most accurate poll in 2012 over the last twenty-one days before election day (minimum of five polls).

Which Polls Fared Best (and Worst) in the 2012 Presidential Race

the Real Clear Politics average, which currently have Clinton up 6.9 points

Phony polls to make people think the stolen election results are valid (if it comes to that).

What turnout model do they use? If it is 2008 when Democrats outvoted Republicans by 8 points or 2012 when Democrats outvoted Republicans by 6 points both are wrong. There is at least an 11 point gap in supporter enthusiasm in favor of Trump
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3481436/posts

So even if this is off by 2 points (not likely because it appears so regularly) it still leaves Trump up 2 points against the best Barack Obama did.
