Hillary leads in final pre-convention polls from ABC, NBC, and CNN

Given the news today about cops being shot in Baton Rouge, I don’t know if it’s worth writing up any new polls before, say, November 1st. America’s too volatile a place in 2016 to have any confidence about what the public’s mood will be next week, let alone three months from now.

For what it’s worth, though, here you go. CNN has the race 49/42, NBC/WSJ has it 46/41, and ABC/WaPo has it 47/43. Of the three, only the last one shows any movement towards Trump, which is interesting since their sample is D+10. (A month ago he trailed by 12.) The CNN poll actually has Hillary gaining two points since June despite the damage done to her by Emailgate. It may be more useful to think of these polls in the aggregate as a clue to the state of the race than by parsing the internal numbers: Scroll down through RCP’s poll history and you’ll find that Clinton’s current lead of four to seven points looks a lot like her polling in late June, before Comey’s announcement about the e-mail investigation on July 5th and the ambush of Dallas police a few days later (which may have also benefited the law-and-order candidate Trump). In other words, Hillary’s rough week may have just been a speed bump and now her numbers are returning to “normal.” Although as I say, in light of what’s going on right now, there really is no such thing as normal this year.

I'm not a conspiracy guy...but it kinda smells that after all the good Trump polls recently, both nationwide and state, that these 3 turn the narrative over.

Just because we’re paranoid doesn’t mean the Enemy Media isn’t out to get us! :)

The only poll that matters is November 2nd’s ‘poll.’

If we make it to November...

Hillary always picks up a few points when people don’t have to see her face.

But she can’t stay hidden through November.

Oversampled Democrats - and with a 10+ advantage, it should be hosanna for Hillary, right?

Not quite when you have agenda polls showing her well ahead.

Polls are fiction. Their intent is to manipulate and persuade.

The Powers that Be want Hillary to Be The Power. Therefore, Hillary is leading in the polls.

Here endeth the lesson.

The Ministry of Propaganda will be calling a close race right up until election night when the enormity of the landslide can no longer be concealed.

Once again the media whores are fabricating poll outcomes to serve their master old “hippo bottom” Hitlary. I don't believe a word of the authenticity of those so called ‘polls”.

Either the polls are just rigged junk, or we have an incredible amount of really REALLY stupid people in our country. It’s a shame that the schools have been turned into libtard indoctrination centers rather than providing the means to think, calculate, and write as they formerly did. As a great example of this, the NY Post just published a story about how the Alzheimers Post Girl, the schools chancellor, just announced that social studies courses in NYC will now lean heavily toward teaching social justice nonsense vs. actual history.

old “hippo bottom” Hitlary


LOL. Hate to get personal, but, Hillary’s bottom side has really flared outwards. And she waddles along as she walks.

She wears long flowing jacket type tops, which can help hide what is going on downstairs.

And, we know the media have been told they cannot photograph her boarding her airplane. Apparently that is not a pretty sight.

You mean D+ double figures over R. LoL.

Well if I polled the NYT’s editorial board, the same difference here, I’d get their same desired results.

I like it when these idiots believe their own ink. It’s going to be a rude awakening in November for them.

Great post! You see things clearly, so I beg your pardon for using such a public forum to extend my marriage proposal to you!

Rock on, kiddo...

If America is stupid enough to select/elect Hillary Clinton , we no longer deserve the eight to vote for our leadership .
The swine will have taken over . A military counsel led governance would be preferable .
