President Trump will need to request his FCC investigate and if confirmed, strip the licenses from the fifth-column ABCCBSNBC media stations.

It most likely got yanked because the validity of the poll is questionable, to say the least. It was posted to the website of a CBS affiliate in San Diego. The poll came from a company called Cepex, which is a consulting firm that works in the oil and gas industry. No previous history of any kind of polling until this one.

Thanks for the link.

The headline or poll which came out yesterday 8/21/2016, stated, “Trump Leads Clinton by 5+ Points in the Key Battleground State of Pennsylvania”.

Do you find it a bit odd that this story/poll just hours after it was published, has already been archived by this news organization?

It doesn’t fit the narrative they are trying to portray. Remember the CNN poll regarding Donald Trumps Convention speech?

A confidence level of 95% within seven points?

That poll is next to worthless.

You may wonder, but Romney remains clueless.

What discourages me the most is not cooked/rooked polls, but the strong possibility of massive vote fraud in what may be a close election.

The LA Times is showing Trump with a very small lead right now.

I understand. And it begs the question, why would they even put it up?

And you mentioned, "It’s archived, so it’s not gone actually."

But the fact is, it for all intents and purposes it's gone for the general public. I base this on the fact, even the individual who posted this thread felt is was "Gone" or scrubbed. So it's pretty much "Gone", right?

One thing to note about the polling. While Dick Morris is not exactly a friend of most of us, he does know polling.

I heard him interviewed today and he said that when they went back to the pre-election polls for the Primaries, Trump averaged 5 points higher than the polling...which verifies that some people were lying to pollsters. Hard to believe that will not be the case in November...when people of the privacy of voting, rather than answering a call from a stranger.

Also noted by Morris, and noted elsewhere, is that Trump does better on Internet polls. Note that these polls are run by top-notch pollsters, such as the LA Times and Zogby (i.e., not by Drudge having his own poll). Same effect.

Bottom line, DO NOT GET DISCOURAGED by polling numbers, at worst it’s a tie for Trump now...if patterns hold up.

KFMB (CBS8) did not post “their report.” They posted a press release from a polling organization that paid a service to spread their press releases that in turn pays KFMB to run a bunch of press releases on their website.

Good Lord. A robocall poll only to landlines? Why publish it in the first place?

Because whoever commissioned this wanted to get what they paid for.

I can tell you first hand in PA, I see new Trump signs popping up in people’s yards every week. This is outside the big cities though, it’s the urban voters that we’ve got to out number come November.

Certainly the Democrat Attorney General being forced out in disgrace there would help the cause.
