UPI/CVoter poll: Donald Trump widens lead over Hillary Clinton to 2 points
UPI/CVoter ^ | 9/11/2016 | UPI/CVoter

WASHINGTON Sept. 11 (UPI) -- The UPI/CVoter daily presidential tracking poll released Sunday shows Donald Trump leading Hillary Clinton by 2 percentage points.

The online poll shows Trump with 48.23 percent to Clinton's 46.06 percent.

The most recent data reflect a 1.09 percentage point shift toward Trump compared to data collected a day earlier and a shift of more than 5 percentage points toward Trump in the spread between the two candidates over the course of seven days, the poll's full sample size.

The UPI/CVoter online tracking poll surveys about 200 people each day, leading to a sample size of roughly 1,400 people during any seven-day span.

Because the poll is conducted online and individuals self-select to participate, a margin of error cannot be calculated. The poll has a credibility interval of 3 percentage points. This seven-day span includes data collected from Sept. 2 to 8, when 1,837 individuals were surveyed. Of them, 1,256 identified themselves as likely voters.

This is tracking with the PPD poll as well, but not with the USC/Dornsife poll.

Seems suspicious. Once Trump tweeted his two point lead in the USC/Dornsife poll, it has steadily trended against him.
The other two tracking polls aren’t referenced as much and are not recognized by RCP.
Hoping that these other tracking polls reflect the true state of the race.
Hate today’s CBS/YouGov polls out this morning from Ohio and Florida. Even the Marist ones are better this time.

I wonder what a reasonable time would be for Trump to wait to address this falling thing?

He needs to capitalize on it, but not be a DB about it.

He should let his surrogates go there

He shouldn’t talk about her health, because the radicals and the media will just flip it to he is beating up on a poor old lady.

His surrogates can take her down

Should not be long before an enterprising "The Downfall" meme artist takes the latest and makes a Real Downfall, Hillary-style.

I find it amazing that this is being reported as Trump “widens his lead” rather than the usual “virtual tie” or “running neck and neck” as any Trump lead is usually portrayed.

Very odd. Trump moving up everywhere. Hillary having perhaps her worst week and she is up 7 days out of the last 8 on this poll.

Very strange.

If she jumps up again the coming week after today's medical incident I'm going to consider giving up on USC/Dornsife.

They’re socialist liberals so they lie. USC/LAT poll likely changed their polling to support the sick Hillary.

That's what it looks like to me as well but I'm just guessing.

If you (or anyone else) have some inside info or can see something in the data or even suspect that there is something in the data you should speak up. I would be quite happy to look at the data myself if I knew what I was looking for.

He should hit her on it - unfit to be President, needs to focus on her health - and then wish her health to live to a ripe old age....after she loses the election.

Can’t ignore it, can’t be a jerk about it.
