they use a similar methodology to LA Times (which also has Trump up slightly)

How do the pollsters take into account the massive voter fraud the Demonrats are famous for? Is that just part of the Demonrat vote numbers?

Many of them will re-weight based on historical turnout of D/R/I (eg: the IBD/TIPP poll has Trump up +7 with their raw data on even D:R turnout but for some reason re-weighted to +8D which pulled the margin down to +2%. (D+8 is very generous - Obama didn’t even get that, I just don’t think IBD/TIPP wants to be too much of an outlier)
