As voters go to the actual polls to cast their ballots in what has been an unprecedented presidential election, Republican Donald Trump held onto a 2-point lead over his Democratic rival, Hillary Clinton — 45% to 43% — in a four-way matchup, according to the final IBD/TIPP presidential tracking poll. Libertarian Gary Johnson captures 8% support from likely voters, while Green Party candidate Jill Stein gets 2%.
In a two-way matchup, Clinton leads Trump by 1 point — 43% to 42%.
Unrounded, the numbers are: Trump 45.0%, Clinton 43.4%, Johnson 7.6%, and Stein 2.0% — which means Trump has a lead of 1.6 points. The final IBD/TIPP poll showed an interesting gain in support for Johnson, who climbed from just shy of 4% four days ago.
"As we complete the final days of the tracking poll, we see both Republicans and independents with relatively greater enthusiasm compared to Democrats. The registration advantage Democrats typically have will likely be neutralized by increased enthusiasm by Republicans, which is similar to 2004, when the voters split 37% Democrats and 37% Republican on Election Day. When it comes to candidate support, party-line vote will likely cancel each other," said Raghavan Mayur, President of TechnoMetrica Market Intelligence, which conducts the IBD/TIPP poll. "We also expect independent turnout to be robust and significantly higher than in recent elections, and Trump has an 8-point advantage over Clinton among these voters."

Win FLA
Win NC
Win PA
Win OH
MUST STOP THE CHEATING.
If Trump wins, IBD/TIPP are going to look like geniuses.
If he wins Florida he is going to win the election. I counted up all the electoral votes 4 times yesterday and had him winning each time over Hitlery. He will win even if she wins Pennsylvania, I had him at 270 EVs over her 268.
Try it for yourself. He’s got Ohio, Georgia, North Carolina, New Hampshire, Northern Maine, Iowa, Arizona and Nevada.

270 to 268 may seem very close but I think we are going to get a huge surprise: Democraps aren’t going to turn out for her and Trump will win by a big margin by winnning states where he is only a point or two behind.
If we end up with 270 to 268, you just know she’s going to sue over something in some state. She’ll find something somewhere to make a case out of. You can see it coming.
Johnson and Stein are NOT combining for 10% of the vote.
Pollsters always give third party candidates higher numbers than they actually receive. Johnson will probably get around 1% of the vote nationally, but no poll shows that.
He is going to beat her by more then 2 pts.
Praise the Lord! Let His will be done!
Agree. I think his vote is more dispersed over the battleground states, while hers are in deep blue States like Calif.
Surprised - but glad - to see IBD/TIPP isn’t poll herding.
True. I think the Johnson voters go for Trump.
We will get more then 270.
This is very good news. The mainstream media polls herded to a Hillary +4 average. The two most accurate polls from 2012 show Trump winning. The discussion from the link is interesting. This is now a Dem +3 weighted poll. Trump leads independents by 8%.
And Michigan
I agreed with you, I just worry about BROWARD county and voter FRAUD in FL.
Cheaters, liars, alleged journalists, dopers, educrats, border-hoppers, illegals, single women, stuffers of ballot boxes, manipulators of voting machine software, assorted illiterate third-worlders, radical feminists, snowflakes, city-dwellers, Yankees, globalists, bankers and other bottom-feeding scumbags; let’s get out there and finish this country off by voting for HIllary!!!
Plus voter fraud, Florida really has to be watched because it’s really close there. But I think Democraps aren’t going to turn out for her, a lot of them don’t like her and her theft of the nomination from Sanders really ticked off a lot. I think Trump will win Florida easy and possibly win Penn. and Colorado as well which would bring him up to 299 and drop her to 239. Of course we may get a huge surprise where they hate her so much that he wins a bunch of other states as well. Either way, I am getting a six of beer and a pint of Jack Daniels while I watch these returns tonight. If it starts showing her in the lead I want to be in a coma ha ha. If she wins, it’s going to be Armageddon. A Hillary Presidency after a Obama Presidency would be like trying to save a sinking ship by nuking it, just absolute suicide but I don’t think the American people are that insane.
Swamp drainers!
