Hillary Clinton leads Donald Trump by 11 points in the U.S. presidential race, showing little change after she became the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee this week, according to a Reuters/Ipsos poll released on Friday.

Our problem is the electoral college. Hillary has a lot of ways to win. We have a thin line but doable. A terror attack on soil is about the only guarantee we win OR if she is indited by the justice department. Not going to happen.
The question is how many of those undecideds support Trump but are not willing to tell a pollster. I suspect a lot.
Yeah, they’ll be pushing this right up to the election.
Don’t fall for it.
“Another poll with with 45 % Democrat, 32% Republican, 14 Independents ETC.”
Yes, and this is the really important thing to remember at this point. No election is a cake walk, lose or win, and this one won’t be either - for either candidate. This election is going to be very hard for pollsters to get right, because the usual split they use is not going to be valid. What I hope is that Trump has another gear that we haven’t seen yet. I believe he does, but we’ll just have to see. It’s very early, and for the first time in awhile the Democrats are running someone who has huge issues with likability. From this point forward Trump needs to rise above the fray. He’s successfully lured Hillary and her sycophants into the mud. Now its time for him to get out of the mud and let them mire in it. The truth is that they’ve always been in the mud, but they were always able to pretend they weren’t.
This election is going to be a fight. Life is always a fight. Personally, my biggest mistake as an adult was assuming that at some point your efforts got you to a place where you didn’t have to fight as much anymore. Never happens. I don’t think Trump is a quitter, and I think there will be a big fight ahead of us, with the next 30 years of the nation at stake.
One poll says Hitlery by 10 points another says Trump by 10 points but I think it all depends on who’s in the bar that they talk to the night before.
OMG we're going to be subjected to folks here refusing to believe the polls for 5 months just like 2012....
I don’t know. It’s hard to play that game.
I do believe that some percentage of Ds disgusted with Cankles will vote Trump—2%? 5%? Hard to tell.
What he needs to do asap is to raise that R support up into the high 80s, and if that means pushing these dodos out of the party who are “neverTrumpers,” let’s get it over with. We need to know who is reliable.
As I’ve stated before, if Trump Wins in November I’ll be as excited as I was the first time my Parent’s took me to Disneyland.
If Clinton Wins, it’s just another day in the Bizarro World.
I’ll just spend the rest of life remembering what this Country once was and thanking God I was able to live most of my Life in the greatest Nation he ever Created.
It’s. Bull. Sh*t.
Disillusioned and buyer’s remorse voters tend to stay home instead of voting for the other guy. In 2012, for example, Obama lost three and a half million votes compared to 2008 while the GOP candidate gained about one million. I wouldn’t bet on very much of that one million coming from disillusioned Obama voters. Would you make such a bet?
Other polls showing closer race, but nothing to panic about right now. Trump will be motivated to work harder and hit harder against Hillary.
To me this is Trump’s to lose. He needs to stop taking the bait with the judge. The press and Romney have gone off the deep end and it’s absurd. Trump has been even with Hillary in several battleground states like Pennsylvania. Hillary is a gift. Trump simply needs to keep the focus on her and forget the stupid judge. He’s smart, he has excellent advisors. They must know what he simply needs to do to win.
Freepers have a way of redefining low-information voters.
These polls are BOGUS; case closed.
It’s probably true. Hillary had a great week, Trump had an absolutely terrible week.
But have confidence. Only the most myopic conservatives thought this would be easy.
“Need to see polls for FL,PA,OH,etc. those are the ones that matter”
Wrong.
Polls don’t matter. At all.
Not to mention the 200,000 convicted felons in Virginia that will be voting for Her Thighness this year (guaranteeing she gets VA), courtesy of her loyal servant, Terry McAwful.
What we need to do is start putting pressure on these never Trump Republicans and news media.
Start making calls, writing letters, emailing. Boycott sponsors.
John Kasich, Ted Cruz, Marco Rubio are elected and serving politicians - their constituents need to light up their phones and emails - get on board or never have another elected office.
Write the sponsors of Beck and Levin, rein them in or lose business. Same for the news media.
They are all the ones determined to limit R support. Trump can’t be expected to do it all.
It’s Reuters Jake. (hat tip Chinatown)
