Clinton leads Trump by 6 points after Democratic confab: Reuters/Ipsos poll

NEW YORK (Reuters) – Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton held a 6- percentage-point lead over Republican rival Donald Trump, according to a Reuters/Ipsos poll with new wording that was released on Friday, the day after she formally accepted her party’s nomination for the Nov. 8 election.

Nearly 41 percent of likely voters favor Clinton, 35 percent favor Trump, and 25 percent picked “Other,” according to the new July 25-29 online poll of 1,043 likely voters, which overlapped with the Democratic National Convention in Philadelphia.

The poll has a credibility interval of 4 percentage points.

The presidential tracking poll reflects a slight change of wording from previous surveys, replacing the “Neither/Other” option given to respondents with just “Other.” An internal review had found the word “Neither” has, at times, siphoned support away from one or the other candidate. [nL4N1AB4I6]

Former Secretary of State Clinton delivered an upbeat keynote address at the Democratic convention on Thursday night, as she became the first woman to accept the presidential nomination from a major party. [nL1N1AD041]

In the biggest speech of her more than 25-year-old career in the public eye, Clinton, 68, cast herself as a steady leader at a “moment of reckoning” for the country, and contrasted her character with what she described as Trump’s dangerous and volatile temperament.

We can always count on Reuters to come up with a poll that contradicts every other poll, always in Clinton’s favor. I wonder how much money the Clinton campaign is paying Reuters for these phony polls.

If the polls are as fake as the convention, I figured she would be up by 20.

BS but when it's rigged.... Former Secretary of State Clinton delivered an upbeat keynote

Isn't that precious. It was upbeat. Sounds like it was failure, white cut-out bag on her body and all.

Heh.

The re-giggering obviously required limiting the poll only to previously declared Hillary voters.

That’s the only way to explain the numbers.

Or, they just made it up as part of a psycho-social manipulation via pseudo-demographics program.

I’m usually willing to believe or lend credence to polls, but Reuters polls are crap.

Within the MOE, 25% undecided, most of which will break for Trump.

COnsidering the efforts to improve results by changing the methodology, such polls are NOT good news for Hillary.

Quite a coincidence that they decided to do change their poll methodology immediately after the DNC, isn't it?

Vote Trump!
