Hillary Clinton has vaulted to a double-digit advantage in the inaugural ABC News 2016 election tracking poll, boosted by broad disapproval of Donald Trump on two controversial issues: His treatment of women and his reluctance to endorse the election’s legitimacy.

The poll "combines Oct. 22 and Oct. 13 polls for sufficient sample size." That's like adding apples and oranges. If your sample size is low, you're supposed to keep making phone calls.
And how can this Langer's ABC poll be "taken October 20-22" when it has old data in it from October 13?
I am doubting this!
Your typos are hilarious!
Then why post it?
It’s “big league”, NOT bigly.
There are four national daily tracking polls with good track records that show Trump in the LEAD this morning: IBD/TIPP, USC/Dornside, Rasmussen and PPD. He was down by FOUR in the WPost/NBC poll this week which showed he cut her lead in half after the debate. Where, oh where, do we get a media poll (Mr. George Stephanopolous is the “news” director of ABC) showing her up by 12 and winning with men?? Why is this “poll” so much different than the Ohio polls which show Trump in the lead or at worst level? If you look at US presidential elections, OHIO tracks the national vote within a point or two. Trump ain’t down by 12 in Ohio and I am a realist, not a true believer.

Hey, when can we meet?
I also want to get your Atlas folks to recommend oversamples for our polling before we start in February.
By market, regions, etc. I want to get this all compiled into one set of recommendations so we can maximize what we get out of our media polling.

The penalties are called beating the snot out of them and disappearing a few.
Works wonders everywhere it’s tried.
Lol. When I look at that, it reminds me of that famous song from the Pixies: “Where is my mind?”
Totally agree, but we know the mainstream media polls are biased and inaccurate. They figure out what kind of numbers they want to create, then rig the sample to achieve it. It is propaganda not news.
Look at Rasmussen, the other non-news connected and non-college connected polls. They are probably more accurate.
I am optimistic Trump will pull this off.
If he does not, I don’t want to hear whining from the American public when
Your guns are confiscated
The borders are overrun by poverty stricken third worlders who will irrevocably swing elections to Democrats and Marxists
Our economy collapses with food, medicine and housing controls imposed from Washington
Our Constitution is no longer given even lip service
A vast economic gap materializes between the Uber rich like Buffet, the Bushes, Clintons and the mass of Americans with the destructin of the Middle class.
Increased violence here and overseas from assorted radical groups.
These are but a few of the malign influences a Hillary presidency will create and there will be no recovery. It’s over. She will finish Obama’s destruction.
But maybe this is what the average American wants. Government directed mediocrity so they needn’t be bothered by elections.
You need to get out more.
B.S. This is the media trying to manufacture a narrative, nothing more.
Right
That's my problem. Life was easier when I never left Free Republic, a magical world of unicorns and fairy dust where it's still Mulberry of 1955.
ABC*
*Democrat operatives.
all the old media is in surrender mode.
I don’t think I heard you right, I can purchase the bridge for how much?
This poll is being played up everywhere while polls showing Trump ahead are ignored.
