Clinton Maintains Lead; Tight Race for Senate (FL, Clinton +5)
Monmouth University ^ | 9/20/16 | Monmouth University

Posted on 09/20/2016 11:34:23 AM PDT by NYC-RepublicanCT

West Long Branch, NJ - Hillary Clinton holds a 5 point lead over Donald Trump in the crucial swing state of Florida. This is slightly less than the 9 point lead she held in a Monmouth University Poll of Sunshine State voters taken last month. Sen. Marco Rubio is currently locked in a tight race with his Democratic challenger Patrick Murphy, ahead by a statistically insignificant 2 points after leading by 5 in August. The poll also found that voters are skeptical of Trump's recent attempt to draw a line under the Pres. Obama birther controversy.

Among Florida voters likely to participate in November's presidential election, 46% currently support Clinton and 41% back Trump. Another 6% intend to vote for Libertarian Gary Johnson and 1% support Green Party candidate Jill Stein, with 5% who are undecided. This compares to Monmouth's August poll which had Clinton at 48%, Trump 39%, Johnson 6%, and Stein 1%.

Some tough poll numbers coming in today. Maine looks VERY good (tied, Trump up big in CD2), NV is Trump +3 (Ras), but nearly tied in NC, losing ILL and NC Senate Races.

Anyone have a sense of what's going on? Outliers?

Here is what I know. There is a 98% chance that Trump wins now and this race is over.

Voter manipulation. It could make the difference in a close race.

5 point lead?

Sorry Monmouth, Hillary will lose any state where she is NOT by at least 10+.

Trump will win FL.

Yeah. This is kinda goofy, actually. FL has been going more and ore trump. There is nothing in the news lately to cause it to do anything other than go Trump even faster.

There are very few states where Hillary is up by 10+.

Anything less, Trump can win because of turnout.

MSM is so stupid.

The last Monmouth Florida poll (8/12 - 8/15), has Clinton up 9 points.

I doubt the Florida result. I spoke with a die-hard Dem in Fla a few days ago and much to my surprise he called Clinton a lying sack of s. He said he’s voting for Trump. I couldn’t believe my ears.

With Maine being tied... If we get Maine, and take FL/OH/NV/IO (and hold Romney states), we’re at 269 without NH.

Hillary lost four points in a month! What would it look like by October?

After that huge rally in Ft. Myers yesterday, Trump has FL locked up.

And if Hillary has a small lead, that will disappear faster than snow in July.
