ABC News/Washington Post Tracking Poll: Ten Point Swing For Donald Trump In Four Days
Breitbart ^ | 10/29/2016 | Charlie Spiering

Posted on 10/29/2016 9:05:11 AM PDT by conservativepoet

Trump is now at 45 percent with likely voters, up seven points from his low of 38 percent earlier in the month. Hillary Clinton is at 47 percent while Gary Johnson is at four percent and Jill Stein is at two percent.

That marks a seven point jump for Trump in just four days. Trump’s opponent Hillary Clinton has seen her numbers drop three points in the same time period, making a 10 point swing in Trump’s favor.

When the history of all of this is written, it will show that American Democracy was not saved by Americans, but by a Dutchman and a German-born New Zealander who has never even visited this country.

That is pretty damn sad, in my opinion.

It is a sad commentary on the American New Media.
In bygone days there would have reporters, if even liberal,
that would have investigated the Clintons to enhance his or her reputation, earn ever lasting fame, and perhaps even a Pulitzer Prize.

In the world of today, it would mean that reporter would be unemployed, black-listed, and quite possibly dead.

Same subect but for the state of North Carolina that Trump needs and should win. Contrary to the polling and media this guy says,

- - - - -
"Bill Mitchell Retweeted
morlando125 ;@morlando125 59m59 minutes ago

@mitchellvii In NC, 22% less blacks, 40% more independents, and Republicans are up 6% in voting. Closer to a R +2 right nationally + Indies"

- - - - -

Where's that D +infinity we see in your polling morons? It's not there is it lying Media. November 8th is going to be a very very bad day for you.

BS.

Trump was never down by 11+.

Hillary has shed support like a lead balloon!

Never seen it in the entire history of American elections.

And its basically a tie.

IBD? D +7 and Hillary is up only 4+ - well within the MOE.

If its D +2, Trump is well ahead.

Don’t be a concern troll!

For the last week all of their samples have come out a straight +R1 BUT they feel it is incumbent upon them to reweight their sample so they have been readjusting it with a +D8. They just can’t fathom that what they actually are seeing in their own poll could actually happen. What dopes! Even in 2012 Nobama didn’t even have a +D8 turnout.

R +2? If that’s true, Trump is going to win in a blowout.

And MSM is peddling D +7, D +8, D +9, D +10, D +11 turnout that have no connection with reality.

Don’t be surprised their polls are way off. Not one MSM poll accurately predicted the 2014 election outcome.

IBD didn’t like their results so they changed them. They are like most media outlets who are liberal or neverTrumpers.

They’ve been consistently getting R +0 to R +1 in their raw polling so they chopped the Rs down to re-weight their poll D+ 7 to D +9). You’d think they’d get a hint what’s really going on the ground. They pick and choose which Rs to chop off, and I’d bet the planet they keep any Rs who voted for Hellary in their re-weight. Don’t worry about those clowns.

R+1, R+2, they’re ignoring evidence to the contrary to signs of a Trump landslide.

There’s massive confirmation bias on behalf of Hillary.

Jake Novak wrote about it back in the spring - people either interpret evidence to conform with what they see or dismiss it because it conflicts with the established narrative.

They simply can’t see Trump winning. The signs are all there but they don’t want to take them for what they’re worth.

What they’re doing is exactly the same thing they accused us Freepers of doing in 2012: to make Hillary look better through “unscrewing” polls than she actually is doing in reality, just like we “unscrewed” polls in 2012 to make Mitt look like doing better than he was in reality.

These people are going to have the shock of their lives on November 8.

>> Anyone REALLY believe Trump was ever down 12?!!?!?!

Not me.

You are exactly right. Giant CYA effort going on in the media and in dishonest polling organizations.

Washington Post, ABC, etc. have had skewed polls on purpose. They will continue skewing them on purpose, because I don’t think they care about the accuracy of their polls. An independent pollster relying on their accuracy for attracting clients might be concerned unless they were being paid enough not to be concerned, so that means that polls are really an untrustworthy method for measuring the state of a race.

The bottom line is to get out and vote and to try to get as many as possible to vote for Trump.

If you can convince just 2 or 3 others, then imagine that happening across the board.

You are correct, I will be very surprised if they ever show Trump winning. They will do whatever they think it takes to pull votes in for her. They don’t care if they are off on this presidential cycle poll, they just want her elected.

I agree with you and I doubt they’ll ever show Trump winning. IIRC, they didn’t for Bevin or for Brexit or for Netanyahu except for brief little moments, but they continued to skew the polls. They were proven liars only by the actual vote.

I have said this since Trump won the nomination (before actually). Trump iwill play in the Rust Belt. I fully expect him to take all of it short of MN and iL.

This TX is in play or GA etc are nonsense.
