It’s too early to measure the impact of last night’s final presidential debate, but Republican Donald Trump now has a three-point lead nationally on Democrat Hillary Rodham Clinton.
Trolls are deeply saddened.
Excellent News, thanks.
Yes they are. I think Trump will be up by 5 in this poll by early next week.
IBD/TIPP has Trump ahead one point. Was the most accurate poll in 2012.
How accurate are these polls?
Really?
News organizations and political parties use these to yank us around, manipulate us to vote (or give up).
I wonder what the REAL numbers are.
Nice. That’s a four point gain over the past 3 days, right?
Weekend results have fallen off.
Nice pic. Clean-cut, cheerful American male yutes, and not a androgynous hipster among them.
With all of these discrepancies among the polls either they will end up pretty much agreeing with each other by the last weekend or some of them will lose their credibility, as did Zogby and Gallup.
Yes, and a 10 point turnaround for Trump since last week.
“Nice. That’s a four point gain over the past 3 days, right?”
Actually, it’s a 10 point swing if you consider Trump was down 7 points in this very same poll after the Access Hollywood/Billy Bush story broke.
Excellent. The political assassination attempt against Trump has utterly failed.
Don’t worry they will be swarming ...
That gimmick RCP garbage is the new angle to attack.
A lot of the concerned ones turned to that crap when a poll is favorable .
Yup - Hillary had strong polling on Sunday in this poll and Trump had a bad result. That just rolled off and now back to basically where the race was Friday in this tracker. Add to that a bit of movement in the LA Times poll towards Trump and IBD/TPPS still showing Trump +1 makes my morning. Would love to see some good state numbers today.
News organizations polls are usually the most innacurate: NBC, CNN, FOX.
Nate Silver said that Trump had a 2% chance of winning the nomination. Said that the Democrat running for governor in Maryland had a 90% chance of winning (he lost big), etc..
They’ll probably go up as polls try to reflect the election result.
The race will “tighten” now that we are only days from the election so the propagandist pollster can save face. They are “pivoting” right as planned from fake over sampled D+ polls to demoralize Republicans to real polls that better reflect the truth. They have too for CYA purposes.
I wish Trump would break 50%. I would start to feel a sense of relief.
