Thank you for that providing that information concerning Reuters’ polls jennychase.

This thread and the thread referenced below have pretty much destroyed Reuters’ credibility, for me anyway.

This poll may as well say that they’re tied.

I am trying to get in touch with by 2008 buddies from Hilly campaign. I am surprised , unable to find anyone now working for her. Majority of them are in Trump camp or undecided, but they will not hold nose for Hillary.
I need inside number from that camp.

Exactly. This is within the margin of error. And this poll usually favors Hitlery.

Erin sounds pretty fascist..gee no need for an election how very Hitler of her..the same party that accuses Republicans of being Hitler acts like Hitler themselves. Makes me think they know something BIG is coming about Hillary Clinton, something so big not even the Clinton loving media can hide it

I really don’t know how polls can be conducted by any phone system. I am 56, home most of the time except to run errands or go to medical appointments, and only have a landline. No need for cell phone or a second bill. My phone company only publishes business yellow pages. And, how do pollsters know cell numbers?? Do they buy databases or lists from telcoms??
I like online anonymous polls, especially when there are blocks to prevent multiple voting.

Agreed.

Funny thing that you said you dont need the second bill. You’re right.

But in the beginning of phones, only the upper middle class had them and it skewed repubublican.

Now I would think it would skew the other way.

Although obama gives cell phones away like candy so maybe everbody has one.

I dont know who these people are picking up land lines.

I’ve taken 9 or so online, it’s much better.

it’s not just the oversampling of Dems, but the radical UNDERsampling of independents who are breaking hard for Trump

They are over sampling dems 45% GOP 35% Indi 11%>>> i don’t think they are oversampling based on registration -— actual voting maybe
As of October 2014, Gallup polling found that 43% of Americans identified as Democrats and 39% as Republicans, when party “leaners” were included; those figures changed to 41% Democratic and 42% Republican after the November 2014 elections.[3] However, an earlier 2013 Gallup survey found that 42% of Americans identified as political independents, a record high.[4]

Are they “oversampling”? What are the national donkey vs. GOP registration #’s? Will have to “Duck Duck Go” it.>>>

lol.

You think that’s bad, I’ve gotten four calls on my phone this week from the “IRS” telling me that if i dont respond and pay a fine within 24 hours the “cops” are gonna come get me.

The “cops”. Never mind the IRS wouldn’t make a call over the phone without mailing your first, and they use federal authories to come get you.

So I called back and they’re GOOD. I asked him for a badge number to look up and he had one!! I cursed and he said the IRS was monitoring this call and I shouldn’t curse.

Then he hung up with what I said next :)

I went to IRS site. They will NEVER send cops and NEVER threaten you with a 24 hour deadline, though I kinda figured that already :)

I am a female Republican, am over 60, have a voting and donor history, and an active land line. I NEVER answer a polling question, and I get called several times a day. I am voting a straight Republican ticket in a red-leaning state.

As Fats Waller used to say, "T'ain't nobody's business but my own..."

“I’ll never give mine up because I don’t pay for it.(retirement benefit)’

My land line comes via the Internet connection
Since I am normally home I see no need for a mobile phone. Maybe twice a year I want one
