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.

IBD: yes they claim to be the most accurate. But they can play with their numbers.

In 2008, IBD was showing McCain much better than the average of polls. Right before the election (the last 3 days), IBD’s poll had a huge jump for Obama. They jumped all the way up near the average of polls. That is how they became “accurate” that year.

Officially, they allocated all the “undecided” voters, mostly to Obama.

look at the graph how IBD jumped up in 3 days. I call that manipulation so they could reach the “average”.

I hear ya .. it was rather nauseating just typing it .. yuck !

[Blood of Tyrants]

The previous poll was an inaccurate outlier.

It’s shenanigans like this that lead me to hesitate trusting any of the polls, including the ones favorable to Trump.

Howard Dean just said the pollsters are now siding with the Russians.

Just kidding, not yet, Tuesday maybe.

Will this poll put Trump ahead tomorrow in time to be on all the Sunday talk shows? That would be rich, after last Sunday’s propaganda poll.

[cdcdawg]

She was never that far ahead. By election day the polls will have her up by a point, with a 4 or 5 point margin of error. That way, no matter what happens (within reason), they can claim to have been accurate. It’s all crap, intended to drive the narrative of her inevitability.

3 Texas votes for Trump, my wife, daughter and myself :)

FOX CNNews may not have any polls left to talk about.

making a 10 point swing in Trump’s favor.

everybody at FR knows Trump wasn't really down 10 points in the first place

[PapaBear3625]

There is no “swing”. People decided a long time ago who they were going to vote for, and it generally doesn’t change.

The pollsters are just having to make their numbers align better with reality so they are not too embarrassed on Nov 9.

[COBOL2Java]

"Why aren't I 50 points ahead?"

[SaraJohnson]

Lying pollsters trying not to embarrass itself anymore than it already has.

[dragnet2]

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

The biggest landslide in modern American history!

[SaraJohnson]

They are just not faking the poll numbers as much as the election gets closer.

[Impala64ssa]

Lying pollsters trying not to embarrass itself anymore than it already has.
Back in 1980 the LSM and the pollsters swore up and down Jimmah Carter was going to handily win re election against Reagan, until a couple of days before the election then BADA BING! the polls tightened up. They're slowly coming to the realization that providing aid and comfort to Her Heinous, is, no pun intended, TRUMPED by the need to at least maintain a pretense of credibility.

[Jeff Chandler]

Rush called it. The polls skew Dem to suppress Pub votes, then come back to earth before the elections so they don’t look like idiots.

[RetiredArmy]

A landside vote is 60% if I remember correctly. Trump will not get 60% of the vote unless we expel every one of the 30 million illegals and muslims by the 7th of Nov and you know the odds of that.

[Karliner]

Are they polling illegals and refugees? How does one even get an even a cloudy seminiferous sample these days? Okay I’m backing away from the keyboard now.

[Publius]

55% or better.
