Hillary Clinton Would Now Beat Donald Trump by a Landslide, Poll Says
Newsweek ^ | Emily Zogbi

Posted on 09/22/2018 8:35:24 PM PDT by simpson96

A survey shows that if the 2016 presidential election were held today Hillary Clinton would win the popular vote. The American Barometer was conducted by Hill.TV and the polling company HarrisX.

Based on the responses, the poll found that 36 percent of voters would vote for Trump again while 44 percent would vote for Clinton.

4 percent said they would vote for Libertarian Gary Johnson and 2 percent said they would vote for Jill Stein of the Green Party. Other options allowed respondents to choose not to vote in this hypothetical situation, to decline to vote, or choose someone else.

When these options were taken away and people were asked to choose between Trump or Clinton, the number of people who would vote for Trump increased to 40 percent while Clinton surpassed him with 50 percent. The survey was conducted online between September 14 and September 15 among 1,000 registered voters. The results were weighted for age within gender, region, race and ethnicity, income and education. The margin of error is plus or minus 3.2 percentage points.

During the 2016 election, Clinton had won the popular vote with 48.2 percent. Trump still managed to win the Electoral College and land the presidency.

"In 2016, I think a bunch of Americans thought to themselves “let’s just blow things up and see what happens,'” John Podesta, Clinton campaign chief, said to Hill.TV regarding the poll. "Now that they have actually seen what happens, they wish they could get back to the strong, steady leadership that Hillary has always provided."

A different survey conducted by Hill.TV showed that 46 percent of people approved of Trump while his disapproval rating is higher at 54 percent.

Who commissioned the poll conducted for and by Democrat organizations?

Did they ever conduct a similar poll in 2010 to see who’d vote for Obama again vs McCain? Or in 2014 vs Romney? Or let’s go back to 1994, would they have voted for BILL Clinton again?

They just can’t let go of the upset (to them) Trump victory in 2016, just can’t let go!

Possible. Depends on how Republicans would be able to counter the wholesale election fraud which will take place in select counties in PA, MI and WI. November 2018 will be a preview of the Dem’s shenanigans.

“Why does she so badly want to be president ?”

I think that for the 1st time in all her wicked life that she may actually be scared!

She & Bill has dealt out death to everyone who threatened to expose their crimes and hundreds have paid the ultimate price for it. But prior to the elections the Clinton Foundation took mega bribes from some unsavory people who should never have any dealings with anyone connected with the USA govt.

But being the greedy bitch she is, she took the monies and gave promises to them for things that she was on the verge on delivering had she became the president.

But now that place is out of her reach forever (Thank You GOD!!), the parties are pressuring her for the favors she committed to do for them, and these are very unsavory characters!

The chickens has come home to roost

John Podesta, Clinton campaign chief, said to Hill.TV regarding the poll. “Now that they have actually seen what happens, they wish they could get back to the strong, steady leadership that Hillary has always provided.”..........What strong steady leadership was that,you wishful thinker? Hillary is about as far away from any kind of useful leadership as you can get.

Bullshit !!!!!

You can create a ‘poll’ to say anything you wish, but Trump’s popularity is well above 50%.

As I recall, all the polls also showed Hillary beating President Trump BEFORE the election as well, even on election day. It wasn't until the election results began coming in did reality begin to set in.

Something I find interesting is how people keep talking about how Hillary won the popular vote, so she really won the election. No, by the established election rules, set down in the Constitution of the USA, Donald Trump won.

The people who claim Hillary "really" won would also say that a football team that kicked 3 field goals "really" beat a team that scored 2 touchdowns, since they scored more times. Never mind that according to the rules of the game, the score was 9 to 14.

If justice prevails, Hillary will never again hold any public office.

If justice prevails, Hillary will never see "outside" except through multiple layers of fencing, barbed wire, and bars.
