That’s impossible!
Why, just last night on the MSM News, they said Hillary was 53% in Florida and no way Trump could make up the difference!
So this cannot be true!.........................

The non-stop ‘hate Trump’ drumbeat of the press hasn’t stopped people in Florid from backing Trump - it’s just stopped them from admitting they’re backing Trump.

Great to see this today.
Coupled with that screwy Monmouth Ohio Poll that actually showed Trump leading before it was exposed that it had been re-weighted to put Killary ahead, that gives Trump two of the big three. Then there was that Pennsylvania poll a couple days ago that has Trump up 5 points.
GO TRUMP/PENCE!!!!

It was also quickly yanked from the original website, I believe (thankfully archived here on FR)—and I gather Killary has pulled advertising in PA.
Looked like Mike Pence drew very impressive crowds yesterday in Eastern PA!!
Did you see him at the barbershop with an AA barber who didn’t even know who he (Pence) was???

Trump gets 20% of the black vote and 40% of the hispanic vote.

Folks...I am always overjoyed when I see a poll that has Donald J. Trump in the lead, relative the POTUS race. But......the truth be known, you should really not pay attrention to any polls at this time, one way or the other. The Obama/Clinton “poisoned media” has gone bonkers trying to destroy DJT...and...by the way, is failing in miserable fashion

Both Obama, Clinton, their media goons and the Democrat Party have lost their appeal & Mojo. Witness the horrible Obama farce in his travel to Louiaiana yesterday. He hated being there and could care less about the folks in LA. Clinton, herself, has disappeared from the political scene, with the only exception being raising money. Her rally campaign appearences, is non-existant for the next few months.

I can assure you, folks...money will not get her over the finish line. It is a total wasted effort...across the board. The MoJo,.....folks is with DJT & company!!! Stay tuned!!! Forget the polls...this story & saga have just begun, ladies & gentlemen!!!

Polls in the pre-fall campaign period; between the Conventions & the real start of the all out campaign after Labor Day; polls at this point mean little or nothing. Wait until mid-October to see how the campaign is going; but remember, even then, that even a poll based upon a good sampling will not avoid those who resent being polled, and lie to pollsters.

To realistically analyze the race, one needs to look at who has the right ammunition to create a positive trend; and the answer there is all Trump. We have the facts on our side; Hillary has only the pique over what is relatively insignificant, that the media are desperately trying to keep alive against Donald Trump.

Trump rally in Tampa today will also help his numbers. 20% of blacks and 40% of Hispanics is huge!

What is important about this poll is that it shows Trump doing better than Romney in almost every measure. He’s doing better with women, men, and independents. Romney lost independents in 2012 in Florida. Trump is crushing Hillary with them. If Trump has these ratios going into the fall he will win Florida decisively.

I’m living in a world I never knew existed to this extent. Hillary running for President and tied with ANYONE, is how deep we have sunk as a people.. free people.. in a land with so much promise... and there are those who are floating by/through, without a brain or any common sense.

Dumbed down to oblivion and lost minds!

I’m hoping the democrat and RINO parties are believing their polling, because it will mean they’ll think they have a smaller margin of fraud they need to win.
