With a 5% Margin of Error, the real number could be anywhere.

Also, Missouri seems to be a state that polls more Democratic than it actually votes.

Did McCaskill pull a “jumpin Jeffords”? Missouri has been a purple state lately, IMO.

Saw your tagline. Like it except it should be Trump or FIGHT.

There’s precious little time left to wait it out or we will find we’ve waited too long when they knock at the door.

25℅ of young black males are in prison. I like a good pandering as anyone, but sometimes truth is the truth.

Did Joseph Goebbels, Baghdad Bob, or Tokyo Rose conduct these polls? They have that much credibility. Pure propaganda BS.

It’s slightly a purple state, but it’s red leaning.

Brutal. Clinton may get 350 EVs before this thing is over. Plus control of the senate, and the appearance of a mandate. Not good.

I live in a college town and work with a lot of state employees, who generally vote Democrat. I haven’t talked to one of them who is voting for Cankles. They don’t like Trump, but they fear Cankles.

"The Monmouth University Poll was conducted by telephone from August 19 to 22 2016 with 401 Missouri residents likely to vote in the November election. This sample has a margin of error of + 4.9 percent. The poll was conducted by the Monmouth University Polling Institute in West Long Branch, NJ."

Telephone poll, which severely undercounts Trump voters...

=>"Trump’s advantage in online polls compared with live telephone polling is eight or nine percentage points among likely voters."

Alert: Monmouth poll which ADJUSTS SAMPLES after it finds results that don’t please them.

One third voters are democrat, one third Republican, and they other third are those so called independents. Cruz almost won Missouri primary by the evangelicals... NOT even Senator Blunt, whom I refuse to vote for, would attend the GOP convention... He is a BUSH rhino and snob from St. Louis area. What will decide MO is vote fraud, if the Cruz supporters continue their holy superiority.

There was a great deal of talk about the Bradley Effect in 2008 but very little talk about the Bradley Effect in 2012.

Maybe it’s the sympathy for Michael Brown of Ferguson that is turning MO to the left again.
