The polling company for Reuters is warning Wednesday that Hillary Rodham Clinton's lead over Republican Donald Trump appears soft.
In fact, Ipsos revealed that of the top three issues voters find most important, Clinton only leads one by a margin of 5 points.
"Simply put, the election still is far from over!" said Ipsos President Clifford Young. "While Clinton does lead Trump on the top quality 'stronger on economy/jobs' by five points, they are in a dead heat on 'terrorism' and 'fixing a broken system'much closer than the 8-point average Clinton lead in the polls," he added.

The D+6 isn’t bad. But the Indies should make up way more than 9%. And since Indies are breaking for Trump, it’s like padding Hillary’s numbers. Plus the M/W is ridiculous.
D 35 R 29 I 36 would be a good sample.
I would buy W 52 M 47 Confused 1
I think a 5-6 point D sample is right, but not a 10 point female oversample.
Who knows what the real numbers are. Even if Hillary really is ahead, it would not be to her advantage to have everyone reporting in August that the election is over. She’s won.
That would dampen early voting for her, and voting on election day if the media keep this up.
Plus, what are media going to do for the next 2.5 months if the election is over? They need fresh meat to report/distort/lie about.
I think it’s going to be close to even R v. D.
The Rs did out poll the Dems in the primaries by about 1/2 million votes, and take out California, it’s around 3 million more R voters than D who voted in the primaries.
I thought it was 30-27m Rs over Ds in the primary?
Only knuckle dragging window lickers could believe that Hillary would be a better job creator.
Slightly OT but I have contacted you before and received good information. Obama is turning over the Internet as of 10/1/16. Could this be the fraud the D’s need? Is it possible to be more fraudulent than before?
We need to find out the current numbers for that never-wrong county in Indiana. Also, what is the "cares about people like me" number?
I can't believe she is up by five on the economy and job creation, unless they think being on the dole is really a full-time job!
"Yes, thats correct. The 2016 total GOP turnout 31.1 million, was greater than the total DEM turnout 30.6 million."
I just put up an article about turnout and the state of PA from CT.
"Hillary Holds Voter Registration Drive in West Philadelphia Why?..."
Soft, as in fabricated?
Media-manufactured support is inherently weak.
This thread explains it some how weak Hillary is.

We have a winner! Good one!
“...’stronger on economy/jobs’ ...”
Absolute mind boggling.
Let’s see... a woman who’s been sucking off the taxpayers wallets for years, who has never held a real job in her life, rode her Impeached husband’s coattails for most of her career and contained “Bimbo Eruptions” for most of his, and never “created” anything except political disasters is “stronger on the economy and jobs” versus a Man who runs a multibillion-dollar global empire, who actually HAS “created jobs”, boosted the economy BY creating those jobs, employed hundreds of thousands of people over the years, and is by all accounts a top-notch MANAGER - which, by the way, is what he HIRE for the Country; a Manager to run the affairs of the Nation.
Yeah... But she’s “stronger on the economy/jobs”.
Sure. What Special Kind of Moron believes that...
The media trying to lay the ground for an excuse on how they could get things so wrong.
Yes, soft like my pillow that zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Amazing! Those pictures coming out of Pennsylvania make Hillary look like the walking dead!
Sometimes I think the MSM is trying to discourage Trump supporters with skewed polls and slanted news reports.
