Good news to start the day:
LA Times daily tracking poll (Aug 31):
Trump: 45.3% (+0.2)
Clinton: 41.9% (-0.4)
DT +3.4
Trump hasn’t enjoyed this level of support since August 3 and Hillary hasn’t sunk so low since July 31.
Significant demographic margin shifts towards Trump over the last 2 polling days:
a)High school or less:
DT+6.8 to DT +18.8 (ties all-time high posted on July 28)
b)White voters
DT +19.4 to DT+ 22.4 (highest margin since August 3)
c)Males
DT +9.5 to DT +16.2 (highest margin since July 29)
(Meanwhile Hillary has treaded water (8.1 to 8.4))
In addition Trump is making inroads with Hispanics. HC is only +20.
But Trump is still only receiving 4%-5% A/A support.
That one sample blip of about a week ago, that drove this subgroup to 14% for a week, will repeat at some point.
CNN this morning was harping on a Mother Jones story that Trump's modeling agency was some sort of immigration scheme. Chris Cuomo referred to it as a hit piece. A different sort of accusation was leveled back in March, Is Trump's Modeling Agency Flouting Immigration and Employment Agency Law?.
The press doesn't know what to make of Trump's scheduled meeting with Mexico's president, Enrique Pena Nieto. Hillary was also invited to meet. The press has not reported any response from her, no news as to the invitation, and no reaction to Trump's scheduled visit.
Trump said, watch the polls after Labor day........
“But Trump is still only receiving 4%-5% A/A support.”
I would bet that Trump has a higher percentage of the A/A vote.
