I didn't see this posted previously, have only seen the NBC/Survey Monkey poll. Morning Consult has a 2 point Hillary lead which is in line with the NBC poll. Large sample of 3,971 voters and of RV's. Race is effectively tied.

State by state breakdown is what really matters.

In an unrelated underworld poll, Hillary Rodham Clinton pulls ‘almost-even’ with Satan in a new demon poll.

America is realizing no one wants Obama II for at least four more years!!!

[GonzoII]

"Race is effectively tied."

All recent polls have it that way....

Ah but this is before the effect of that scathing NYT 20-page expose in which he was found to have teased a woman about eating too much candy.

[AngelesCrestHighway]

Screw Hillary and the media!

[edie1960]

This poll and the Survey Monkey out today only include RV, that leads me to believe that Trump must actually be leading because Likely voters are not factored in.
I cannot accept any scenario where there are enough stupid people in this country who will screw up this LAST CHANCE TO SAVE AMERICA FROM THE POINT OF NO RETURN!!

State by state breakdown is what really matters.

While that is certainly true, the main take-away from these polls is that Trump has made up a lot of ground, and very quickly.

I expect that trend to continue. In two weeks, he'll be leading in some of these polls.

Bernie maybe could do okay running a lemonade stand and 50% of the country would entrust their future to him.

Better get on board or get out of the way.

What happened to the Eagle witht he mini-gun?

[AngelesCrestHighway]

You give Burned out Bernie too much credit. He can’t find his own ass with both hands.

[GonzoII]

"What happened to the Eagle witht he mini-gun?"

I don't know but we need to liven up the threads....

[Dilbert San Diego]

Things could change when we know who their running mates will be. If Trump picks a solid running mate, could help tip the balance.

Hillary Clinton says it’s “time people stopped listening to Republican propaganda.”......this is not propaganda Mrs. Clinton!

[GonzoII]

"Ah but this is before the effect of that scathing NYT 20-page expose in which he was found to have teased a woman about eating too much candy."

Trump even called women "hon" and "dear" I heard, he'll probably drop 10 points....

The NBC Survey Monkey poll generates it data from people being required to take it to see premium content. It can be easily skewed.

I would take Trump’s competitiveness with Hillary as a good sign. I think he can win people over much better than she can. But he’s going to need a crazy amount of cash to do it, so I’m very concerned that he seems to have renounced his pledge to spend a billion (or was it $500 million?) of his own money.

The beast will resort to the socialist the vp slot. Mark my words.

[Snowybear]

These national polls crack me up. They are largely meaningless except for the talking heads to fill air time talking about them. It’s a good sign though.
