LIES. Trump voters are being underpolled.

This is a kick in the teeth. Hard to say it’s inaccurate when it was right just four years ago. The country has obviously changed and is embracing evil and are too dumb to care. Hope for the best, but now is the time to prepare for the worst.

No internals. Probably give 10 points to Democrats.

Here is where is was ten days ago, with Biden leading at three points following the first debate. This number might likely be noise due to Trump having the virus and being off the campaign trail that little bit. I can’t see how Kamala’s performance in her debate last week would have helped at all.

They did show the breakdown in the article. I don’t know how they find people to poll so without knowing that o just have to trust them. Trump has a hard fight ahead but he’s up to the challenge. Just make sure you get out and vote, talk him up to friends and family. Don’t be afraid to say you support him. At least he’s earned that much from us all

Didn’t Carter still have that significant lead even at this time in 1980?

Trump was out last week.

He’s back now, stronger than ever.

You poll watchers must have nothing better to do with your lives. There's no way Biden is going to beat Trump. They can't even cheat enough to win.

This is the natural result of universal suffrage. Decadence, selfishness, ignorance, short-sighted voters will inevitably outnumber the wise. Those who have a stake in grabbing a piece of the public treasury outnumber those who contribute.

Universal suffrage was, in the not so distant past, a contentious issue. These days universal suffrage is held up as “of course it is a good thing.” Just as “sun orbits the earth” was once universally held to be true.

“Each day, the IBD/TIPP Presidential Tracking Poll data will reflect a survey of 800-1,000 likely voters conducted over the prior five days. As in prior years, TIPP — the polling arm of nationally recognized research firm TechnoMetrica —will conduct live telephone interviews. However, TIPP will supplement phone interviews with online surveys this time to better capture younger voters. (Scroll down for more on the IBD/TIPP Tracking Poll methodology.)”

So the poll is supplemented with ONLINE surveys to better capture younger voters.

This one kind of sucks. Really one of the polls I could hang my hat on.

We will have to see how the SC hearings play out, and Trump getting back on the road. However, I have to say i'm disappointed in some of his commercials. He should really be playing up his accomplishments, and how he has made America great, but instead i'm seeing commercials about Joe Biden reading a teleprompter, which is doing nothing to sway the common voter.

I don’t believe any of the polls because I don’t trust the integrity of the institutions doing the polling. The only count that matters is the final, certified ballot count.

This is a tough one to accept because they are generally more in line than the ridiculous media polls. Every metric out there points to a Trump win except the polling. Perhaps they are catching an upswing coming out of the debate and COVID as it is a much better result than recent polls. It is possible that Trump is just not liked by a large portion of the population, but people think Joe is the answer?? I’ll be looking forward to the results of Rich Baris’ poll of Pennsy out later today. That will be a good barometer of where this race may lie.

A guy won the lottery once.

Now take all your cash and put it on numbers he picks for you.

Far too many people on this site have made polls their religion.

What gets me is that this poll claims his support among men and whites has allegedly dropped compared to 2016 and I find that very difficult to believe. One thing they mention is that Biden’s advantage over Trump with the Hispanic vote is that good bit lower than Hillary’s was and that gives credence to the idea that blacks and Hispanics coming to Trump in whatever number could be among the heroes for election night.

Also to note the internals say 321 Democrats were surveyed, compared to 298 Republicans (a 7 percent Democrat oversample) and 234 Independents (so one should factor in a good number of those who’d vote for Bernie Sanders or Jill Stein, etc).
