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%.

Small sample like that increases the MOE.

Murray won’t say it but guess what? Hillary is tied in FL!

That’s right but its not the narrative he seeks to advance.

TheWrap: MSNBC anchor Lawrence O’Donnell
" was solicited for his opinions left and right. O’Donnell said he has sensed a profound disconnect between mainstream media and the electorate, which is why reporting on Donald Trump’s lies, his charitable non-donations, his debt-dodging bankruptcies, his holding back his tax returns, seems to have little impact.

And he noted that historically Clinton does not recover from downward slides in her polling numbers. “She’s going to have to break her pattern,” he observed.

Hillary reminds me of old Soviet leaders whose condition was kept secret right up to the very end.

What is she hiding?

Methodologies get stranger and stranger...

“METHODOLOGY The Monmouth University Poll was sponsored and conducted by the Monmouth University Polling Institute from September 16 to 19, 2016 with a random sample of 400 likely Florida voters. Interviews were conducted by a live caller in English, including 350 drawn from a list of registered voters (200 landline / 150 cell phone) and a random digit dial supplement of 50 cell phone interviews. Monmouth is responsible for all aspects of the survey design, data weighting and analysis. The final sample is weighted for age, gender, race and partisanship based on voter list and U.S. Census information. Data collection support provided by Braun Research (field), Aristotle (voter list sample), and SSI (RDD sample). For results based on this sample, one can say with 95% confidence that the error attributable to sampling has a maximum margin of plus or minus 4.9 percentage points (unadjusted for sample design). “

I don’t believe for one minute the Florida poll!! No freaking way!!! this is a very different election nothing like nobody has ever seen and the globalists are going to throw the kitchen sink into the ring! The only thing I can say is that we have to work harder and take as many people as we can to the voting booth! This is it folks the beginning of nerve-racking days! The media is not going to lay low they’re going to throw everything they can to dispirit, defeat and eliminate us!

Just like with SurveyMonkey(NBC) this morning showing Clinton +5..they call it surveymonkey because only a monkey would believe it

It's also partially online, which should call its validity into question.
