this is the biggest fair in the world.. so it may have a good hold on where opinion is! perhaps folks just wont tell a pollster who they will vote for! (because it is really none of the MSM business)

I know it’s an unscientific poll, but there’s that 44%ish number for Hillary again :-).

Might have helped if the story mentioned how accurate a predictor this has been in past elections....

Sorry to rain on the parade

Those, who make their living producing bs as polls and lying about their polls probably started their weekend drinking early after reading this.

I know what some other folks are thinking, but I personally believe there’s more than a kernel of truth in this.

I am not calling for a landslide. That’s an amorphous term anyway. Landslide to me would be a win of over 6% nationally and like 350+ EVs. I think this race may hinge on us biting our fingernails till all of Ohio comes in. Pa will be a tease, but voter fraud will give it to Hellery by like 10k votes. Florida, Ohio, Iowa and NC goes to Trump, Va Hellery and Trump wins a stunner in Michigan and Wisconsin. I think over by midnight-ish What is stupid is thinking Hillary is going to win Utah. You have to be a moron to believe that.

As much as I would like to believe this will be the result they showed Romney winning last election 55%-45% but in 08 they did show Obama win 51-49. But it does tell me Trump is doing no worse then Romney at this point and I believe actually better as I think her minority voters in the inner cities stay home.

Ahead of the last presidential contest in 2012, more than 72,000 kernels were cast and fairgoers chose Mitt Romney as the winner with 55 percent of the vote. We now know that Romney lost and President Barack Obama was elected to another term. In 2008, the poll got it right when Obama edged out John McCain 51 to 49 percent of kernels cast.
