See internals on link. 434 Democrats vs 370 Republicans.

Trump has on led in this poll once and that was in January.

They eye opener is how many are satisfied with how things are going in the country (44% vs 55% unsatisfied). Most polls show that number in teh low to mid 30's.

Not sure if Trump buying ads is going to be a good use of money if he doesn’t put his brain in gear before engaging his mouth. Too much playing schoolyard tough guy and dissing about people like McCain and Graham and the rest of the sludge out there that don’t mean squat to 99% of us.

Shoot off your mouth about Hillary and hammer on what you are going to do for the country if elected. Talk about what you’ll do for US, not how great and infallible YOU are, Trump.

If it weren’t for the Supreme Court, this fool would be kicked to the curb, even by those of us who can’t stand the GOPe and the Liberals.

It is VERY SIMPLE:

If this election is a referendum on Trump, TRUMP LOSES.

If this election is a referendum on Hillary, TRUMP WINS.

One would hope this gets communicated to Trump.

“I think he should spend it now.”

By October, people will be sick unto death of Rotten Cankles’ commercials. Maybe that would be the time.

I wish I could be as skeptical as you, but I also thought the polls were all bogus in 2012.

I learned the hard way never to overestimate the intelligence of the American voter.

Yup...

Additionally, the poll sample is D+6. I do think Trump is down right now but more like by 5 points than 10.

2012 election registration:

Democrats 36% of registered voters down 2.8% from 2008
Repubs 27.2% flat from 2008

Independents 23.8% up 2% from 2008

This does not add to 100% because overall turnout 63% of eligible voters.

Point being, do not look at polls and say Dems are oversampled. If the mix looks like 2012, it’s a legit measure. It may not prove to be this year’s mix, but it’s SUPPOSED to be Dem heavy.

And what about the polls in 2014 when they said we wouldn't take the Senate and increase our lead in the House.

You guys always have a very selective memory.

Ok, so in reality this is a +1 D sample with a 3 MOE.

Pretty much could be a tie, or a Cankles 2 point lead.

When trump stops packing them into arenas, then I’ll worry.

People said the same about Romney - polls were biased - look at the huge crowds at events! Guess what, means nothing. Trump will be able to get about 1% of the electorate to see him in person, everyone else sees him through the biased media lens. He needs to step it up and stop shipping ammo to the enemy.

I believe we need to get a reality check around here and get our candidate focused off every bad thing said about him and after Hillary.

Agree. Trump has had a lousy week, accurately reflected in the polling. He needs to stop taking the Democrats' bait. This Khan business has made him look unhinged, dominating the news cycle over more important issues. He should've never dignified their scripted attacks with a response.

CONFIRMED: Pollsters Loading Polls with Democrats to Give Hillary a Lead Over Trump

Donald Trump shattered the previous GOP primary record by 1.4 million votes this year — and that was with 17 candidates in the race!

Hillary Clinton received 1.5 million fewer votes this year than she did in 2008 - when she lost!
Democrats are in a panic. So leave it to the media to jump in and help their candidate. Reuters tweaked their polling methods this week to give Hillary a lead.

Reuters -Ipsos used more than 100 more Democrats in their poll to give Hillary a lead over Donald Trump. Does anyone in their right mind think DEMOCRATS will have more people voting this year than Republicans?

804 people? Really?
They are leading the Fox News blurb on radio and TV based on the weighted opinion of 804 people?
To paraphrase Clint:
What a bunch of dumbasses!!!!
Ha haa!!!

What you’re sayingthen is that women will vote for a proven liar and cheat, someone guilty of criminal behavior. Women, therefore, are poor judges of character and/or are extremely gullible.

There is no way this poll is accurate.
