Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton leads Republican Donald Trump by six points among likely voters heading into the first presidential debate on Monday, according to a brand-new national NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll.
The survey - which was conducted after Clinton's return to the campaign trail following her bout with pneumonia - shows a bigger advantage for the secretary of state than did polls taken during the heightened scrutiny of her health.

First of all...she did not have pneumonia...she said she did...hell i can say i am a former seal and sniper...but that does not mean it’s true...
Second...that’s an NBC Media driven poll by Peter Hart who is a partisan hack and a yutz...so pay no attention.
Here’s the deal NBC...back about September 8 a keynote speaker at a Black Baptist church convention had 20k folks registered and they were filling up the main hall with events but when Hillary who was a featured “KEYNOTE “ speaker spoke the venue staff had to close off vast sections of the room so that there were not so many empty seats...i have seen crowd size from 2-3k tops
so if the smartest woman in the world leaves 18k folks not showing up it means 90% of the folks registered who were already in town and probably in hotels within walking distance the Kansas City venue and they had tickets or badges to get in...she has a problem with her base...you can’t make that up with polling like NBC does....the people are simply not going to show up they have no enthusiasm for the commander in thief and her hubby Bubba Bill the Commander in Briefs!

Horse Shiite.
Inconsistent with the rest of the polls showing a tied race or a Trump lead. But so widely negative that it skews the various averaging schemes (RCP, 538, etc.).
That is why NBC slants their polls. RCP was about to flip to Trump nationally, if you notice RCP is using TWO NBC polls recently. Take the NBC polls out and Trump is ahead.
THAT’s the whole point... Can’t have Trump ever the lead... On RCP or 538... As soon as he gets close, a bogus NBC/WSJ or CBS/NYT skews it back in her favor
Exactly my thoughts. Been happening every time Trump closes in. And RCP is using two NBC polls recently, drop those and Trump is leading nationally.
It drives the media narrative. If Trump takes the lead in RCP and 538, the Media has to cover it... She seems vulnerable and folks go with the winner... Can’t have that, so they are opportunistic in dropping these BS polls
Sampled voters who voted Obama by 13 points. LOL!
Does anyone know what the breakdown was for Democrats vs. Republicans vs. Independents for the 2012 election? I’m just wondering what sort of breakdown we should be expecting this year.
Dobbs mentioned the two polls NBC has and he called them out liars!! Rawlings said not to pay to much attention to national polls but state polls!!
Why did they use registered voters versus likely voters? Most polls now are likely voters.
The telephone poll of 1,000 registered voters, conducted Sept. 16-19, carries a margin for error of 3.1 percentage points. Among the 922 respondents deemed “likely voters,” the margin for error is 3.23 percent
You can’t ignore national polls outright- if they seem legit... NBC polls - both Survey Monkey yesterday and Wall St Journal are both crap, but National Polls are a good barometer overall of State Poll leanings (which are lagging). If one candidate is winning the national poll by 3%, with an extremely high probability, he/she is also winning the State Electoral tally. Bank on it
So, she is up 6pts and won’t campaign again for 6 days!
Hopefully trump CAN get one of the three crucial states..NH,CO or Maine..c’mon folks you can do it!!
The Wall Street Journal is the mouthpiece of Cheap Labor, they will lie through their f-ing teeth to protect the 0001%.
The old phrase “rising tides”... if he pulls 3 points ahead (nationally) by Election Day “, watch PA, WI, MI, CO all fall in line
Why should she, when the damn media provides free air cover for her and attacks him non-stop. Beyond disgraceful
