Anyone know what the R/D breakdown was for this IBD poll?

They don't disclose it.

Curious.

More likely the foul-mouthed John Podesta's leaked emails are punking the Clinton camp.

Podesta is Chairman of Hillary's 2016 campaign. Podesta previously served as COS to Hillary's hubby, then-Pres Bill Clinton.

More recently, Podesta was Counselor to President Barack Obama.

PODESTA AND CLINTON

PODESTA (giggle): "Monica's outside puckering up to see you, Mr President."

CLINTON: "Tell her to wait a sec till I unzip."

In the Economist/Yougov 4 way poll Clinton is up 4 and they sample 42% Dem and 24% Rep
In the Reuters today she is up 4 and they sample 14% more Dem.

Gary Johnson at 8% and Jill Stein at 6% makes me doubt this poll. If Trump maintains a lead for the next 3 weeks in this poll, I will feel a lot better.

In the last 3 months I have gone from north east FL where I live and drive around a lot to Parris island SC and twice to Camp Lejeune .

I never saw more than 5 stickers in all that time and no more than 10 yards signs, of which most were placed on the grass in between the north, / south, east/west lanes.

Trump stickers I would see every ten to 15 mins, and Trump signs about or has to be about at least 50..

I call B/S on the polls for Clinton, but then again the media will spike the polls , and then it allows the dead people, and illegals, and others to vote more than once.

I will not count on the GOPe anymore, it is up to us to carry him victorious to the finish line.


No, it’s up to us to blister the GOP into supporting Trump. Don’t kid yourself, we need all hands on deck.

“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.”

I know some of those people. Typically young and dangerously naive, but also jaded with status quo corruption. There is no chance of them voting for a Republican, and they uncritically accept all of the attacks on Trump as true.

To their credit, however, they will not pretend to not know the deficiencies and corruption of Hellary. They are not yellow dogs and have no mutual understanding with those who are.

Hellary is a bankster. She is a censor. She is vicious, and a warmonger. They hate all of those things. They would have died on a hill for Sanders and Fauxcahontas. but they will NOT vote for Hellary. And Johnson... well, only a fool could listen to the words, look at the hair cut, and vote for that Romnoid.

A friend has a FB poll of his friends [in the thousands...he owns a very successful tavern/restaurant] going, wherein he asks, since ‘the polls’ show Hillary so far ahead, who are you voting for?

So far there’s like a hundred Trump to 3 Hillary votes.

just said the same about spiking the polls to allow for the massive voter fraud the left always does.

I forgot to mention that many of the Trump votes are coming from Democrats.

Since when has Jill Stein ever polled higher than 2% anywhere? National Polls are bunk most of the time. I don’t see them as a very good barometer of sentiment.

“How come we have like 3-4 polls showing TRUMP ahead or even but FOX News never mentions them but keep saying TRUMP is down like 6-8 points!!!”

Because Fox, like the Bushes, are Saudi minions.

Don’t be fooled by the lying media.

We’re going to witness the biggest landslide in modern American history for Trump!

We are being played. I don’t trust polls, it is incredibly coincidental that all of the sudden Trump is tied or leading on the day of the debate. The media will I suspect try to declare Clinton the winner and return to saying she leads again afterward to substantiate and try to create that conclusion after the debate.

Noteworthy also is the very high Stein vote in this poll, 6%.

I don’t think it has to be a “monster” vote exactly.

There are several blocks of voters this year that are not huge but significant when added together.

1) People who for a long time have believed the system is rigged. They don’t usually vote, they don’t identify with a political party and they don’t respond to polls. They are for Trump and there is no way pollsters have accounted for them in their samples.

2) Democrat crossovers who normally vote for Democrat, and can’t stand Republicans, but this year it’s Clinton they can’t stand. This includes union and non union blue collar workers, women, minorities. The pollsters may have a partial handle on this but may be vastly underestimated - many of these crossovers are very shy about admitting it.

3) Republicans like me. I’ve always voted Republican, always wishing the nominee could be more conservative, but voting R anyway. This year I feel like I get my wish: I believe Trump IS conservative, and I just can’t wait to vote for him. I have never been this motivated. Pollsters and pundits act like this kind of voter (like me) doesn’t exist. They talk as though conservative republicans are all like Mark Levin, embarrassed about Trump, hoping he’ll lose to make room for a GOPe like Ryan in 2020. I think there are more like me than they think. Why do they think his rallies are so well attended?

Anyway, I’m hoping there are enough people left with half a brain. This election couldn’t be more of a no brainer.

How do I know all this? It’s purely anecdotal.

I know nothing, but then again - neither do they!
