52% more likely to vote against Trump, but this includes 3-4% for third parties. So this implies a head-to-head Biden lead of only 49-46 or 48-46.

Compare that to Biden up 52-40 in last week's poll by the same company. Perhaps Trump is surging.

Democrats have managed to keep more third-party candidates off of ballots this time.

How is this good news? It's really not.

I don't have to like Trump to know he's done a pretty good job and going in the right direction.

how many in that 52 percent are lying? It could be 2, 3, 4 percent of more.

How many people really want to vote for a man who is so afraid of his own shadow that he has to be dragged from his basement? Trump said last night that a president can’t just sit in his basement and refuse to come out, he has to be out and about, and that entails taking risks. Biden doesn’t want to take such risks.

Couldn’t the pollsters be bring the percentages pro and con Trump closer together as the final vote draws near so they won’t look too foolish when Trump wins in a landslide? At any rate, after predicting that PIAPS would win handily in 2016, I really don’t care what they say now.

i can’t fathom how biden is ahead in any poll at all. The video of him molesting women and children is all over the place. The video of him not having any coherent answers to any questions is all over the place. The video of him always saying the wrong thing is perpetually renewed with additional gaffes. I can only surmise that the IQ in this country is just absolutely shitty.

It’s good to analyse but no it is not good news. It’s also a shame that so many Americans don’t recognise the things that have been accomplished.

56% say they’re better off under Trump than Obama yet 52% are likely to vote against Trump? Both answers are from a Rassmussen poll. Both cannot be right.

When asked a direct question, 98% is an awfully high percentage to answer. Usually, 10-20% will refuse to answer a yes/no question.

What did this poll do/disclose about non answers? No way only 2% refused being pinned down to a yes/no.

Reference....

paper or plastic? Most people, myself included...freeze up.

I’m 48 and have never been contacted for a poll until a day ago. They starting asking me about a senate race in another state. I informed the person that I do not vote in that state. He insisted on continuing despite me repeatedly reminding him that I do not vote in that state. I finally gave up and just gave random answers. Enjoy your poll results.

Polling has historically been so inaccurate that (regardless of the reasons for the inaccuracies) they really have no place in serious journalism. If Cosmopolitan magazine wants to poll its readers on their favorite sex toys, that’s one thing. But the presentation pre-election polls as news is downright unethical as currently practiced.

Most people don’t realize that polls that came out last week were heavily influenced by “response bias”

Response bias is when voters and their party do not want to participate in polls and surveys because there is bad news for their guy. He wasn’t getting accurate people to tell you the truth.

Poll results have dramatically dropped recently because:

First it was the hysteria about the nomination; then two days later it was the hysteria about how awful Trump was at the debate; then two days after that it was he has covid and he is old, fat and may die. And if he doesn’t die well then it was he is insensitive to the 200,000 people who have.

The media had been in a complete melt down for over a week. It was affecting most of the polls; but it is temporary.

Polls have already bottomed out. Two new Pennsylvania polls out today with B+2.4 which means essentially tied. And that doesn’t even take into consideration the large percentage of “shy” Trump voters who do not get picked up in any polls.
