Trump Lead Widens To 2, T43 to C41, His Biggest Yet in IBD/TIPP Poll
IBD ^ | November 7, 2016 | IBD

Posted on 11/07/2016 2:49:20 AM PST by FlyingFish

With one day to go, Donald Trump extended his lead over Hillary Clinton, 43% to 41%, according to the latest IBD/TIPP presidential tracking poll. That comes after a third bombshell from FBI Director James Comey, who announced Sunday he would not indict Clinton for her email scandal.

Trump's two-point lead now matches his largest so far during the 20 days of polling.

Libertarian candidate Gary Johnson gets 6% of the vote, Green Party candidate Jill Stein just 2%.

In a two-way matchup that excludes the two third-party candidates, however, Clinton still holds a 43% to 42% lead over Trump, with 9% of those responding saying they were "unsure" for whom they would vote.

The unrounded poll numbers give Trump a 2.4 percentage point advantage over Clinton in the four-way race, 43.1% to 40.7%. Trump and Clinton had essentially been deadlocked for four days through Friday, but Trump moved into the lead Saturday and widened it on Sunday on a steady drumbeat of news surrounding Hillary Clinton's emails.

Also in the unrounded tally, Johnson now has 6.3% to Stein's 2.2%.

The poll of 1,026 likely voters reflects a weighted response of 319 Democrats, 322 Republicans and 314 Independent and "other" voters. It has a margin of error of +/-3.1 percentage points. The results are now based on the latest four days of polling.

Did Comey’s Sunday announcement do more to harm Hillary’s chances by demonstrating abject corruption in the face of everything we now know...

Agreed. I thought that yesterday after first wondering what game they were playing. I think this, along with the Wikileaks Bernie stuff, will keep the millennials at home or possibly voting Trump.

Conway said to Hannity last night that they weren’t confident about NV, but think they have a good shot at CO. But I take everything that campaign managers say at this stage in the game with a grain of salt.

RealClearPolitics conveniently has not updated the IBD poll in their ‘RCP Poll Average’. IBD/TIPP on RCP still shows Clinton+1

They’re also including polls that were taken more than a week ago in the average. It’s a complete farce.

This has been the most accurate poll in the last two elections.

Pray America wakes

They have to get it halfway right the day before the election so they don’t look like morons tomorrow when Trump wins big.

Comey has not been absorbed by the sheeple and it may not be understood when it is. The lamestream spin today and tomorrow will nail the coffin shut if it is nailed shut.

A press release on Sunday? REally? How did they get to comey? Just like the cheap just-us.

Did Comey’s Sunday announcement do more to harm Hillary’s chances by demonstrating abject corruption in the face of everything we now know, pertaining to what was on Weiner’s laptop? When the FBI appears to be in bed with her, that’s absolute power.

Read the letter again. It really said nothing at all. Comey had them just look at the To: Hillary and From: Hillary emails. How many of the 650,000 were in that category? Who knows.

In any case he did not shut down the investigation. And he still thinks that the Justice Department will not prosecute.

There is really very little news here. Just GIANT HEADLINES intended to promote the INNOCENCE OF HILLARY.

RCP stands for Real Crappy Polls.

Fox News poll just came out and it shows the bitch up 4 points, which is one point increase from Friday. Martha McCallum calls the race over. All other polls will be ignored today. Fox shows will all start with this poll. La Times, IBD, any poll showing Trump winning. Fox also says independents flocking to Clinton. Trump busts his ass every day with 4 to 6 rallies and his numbers go down. Hillary CLinton hides out in the bunker and her numbers go up. I don’t think so.

If this is a daily tracking poll along the same line as the USC poll, then Trump will easily blow these numbers out of the water, because this poll started with a sample set matching 2012 turnouts.. and that’s not going to happen.

Hillary wont’ get over low mid 40s... 43ish (+/- 2 points) and Trump should be in the 50ish range. (+/- 2 points)

Really, really hope this reflects what’s happening.

Just saw a new Fox poll out showing Clinton ahead by 4. UGH!

But tomorrow’s poll will be definite.

Praying....

See what the campaigns are actually doing, and it will become obvious what is really happening on the ground. Trump campaign is confidently playing offense in blue states and Hillary playing defense in the final campaign hours.

Interesting tidbit! No “shock and awe” for Hillary? TMZ just reported that Hillary just cancelled the “victory” fireworks display on the Hudson River, across from her “victory” party tomorrow. They don’t say why. Maybe she’s starting to save money for legal fees?

I don’t know if TMZ is allowed to be linked here but the report is on their front page.

“Has the media been correct about anything in this election?”

That is a key point. The answer is no because the are nothing but propagandist for Hillary. Accuracy does not matter.

I apologize if I am mistaken. I live in Jersey. I travel throughout the state and there are barely any Hillary signs. Heck, I still see Sanders signs. There are a scattering of Trump signs. I think Jersey will be surprisingly close. The last poll a month ago had him down 6
