Reuters-Ipsos Poll Showing Hillary Up by 6 Pts. Sampled 44% Dem, 33% Rep (Actual Result Trump +2.5%)

The latest Ipsos-Reuters poll has Hillary up 6 points over Donald Trump.

For this poll, Ipsos spoke to 1705 Americans, of whom 752 were Democrats.

ipsos-poll-fraud

That’s 44 percent of the total.

Only 29 percent of Americans identify as Democrats.

Ipsos spoke to 570 Republicans for the poll.

That’s 33 percent of the total.

That’s media fraud.

Prepare for the landslide.

UPDATE: Via Zero Hedge —

Using Reuters’ data, Hillary supposedly has a 6-point lead over Trump. However, if we alter the sample data to reflect what Pew says is the real distribution of democrats versus republicans (i.e. 33% vs. 29%, respectively) and apply the same support levels by party affiliation it results in an 8.5% swing toward Trump who would have a 2.5% lead….very inconvenient.

Hi- I went through this on another thread yesterday re: this poll... page 14 has the exact breakdown by percentage... it’s D+8. What you are showing is rje pre-weighted data.. I also did the math of D+8, overlaying to the percentage for each candidate by party.. just FYI

look at page 14 in the Reuters doc... it clearly shows D+7, and D+8 with leaners... I did the math... this poll uses the D+8 methodolgy... I think it’s gonna end up closer to D+4 or D+5.. which would make this a tossup.

That's almost as bad as the poll from PPP from Aug 30th.... that one compares Trump to all sorts of ridiculous things, like middle seat of an airplane, insects, diseases, Duke LaCross team...

THAT was one of the most biased polls I've seen. No similar comparisons for the Crooked witch

After last election I’m not getting into unskewing polls. This turnout model is garbage, just ignore it.

Polls influence the real vote because people want to vote for a winner.

Sadly, you're right. Though, I'm not sure if it'd need to go so far as requiring a license, but certainly outfits like RCP should at least put an asterisk next to any recorded poll result from which the sampling is outside the political orientation of the electorate.

I have non-concern. I have non-surprise by cooked polls.
I have loss of language and grammer because no surprise.

Monmouth did the same thing in their recent poll.

They asked about Trump and the birther issue? Yet, no questions about Hillary calling millions of Americans “deplorables” or if they were concerned with her collapsing during 9/11. All three controversies were swirling during this time. I fired off an email to Patrick Murray and asked who makes the decisions for such questions? Of course, I got no reply.

The bias is outrageous.

For likely voters the graph shows 426 republicans to 535 democrats to 116 1077 total so 116 other.

That would be

dem 49.67%
rep 39.55%
other 10.77%

“We want truth.”

Absolutely!

But here is an interesting thought. What if this media ruse backfires on Hellery? It just might give lazy democrats a false sense of security and keep them home on election day, because they think it’s “in the bag” for her.

Cooked. They must be bribed to cook this way.
I still see a Trump blow out, especially among first time registered voters.
We must not let up. Fraud will be rampant.

I’ll wager that there will be more Democrat votes for Trump than Republican votes for Mrs. Clinton!

Hey, I wish I was more like you. Believe me. It’d be beautiful to wake up every morning and just believe the polls aren’t rigged (even though nearly every single pollster is associated with a leftwing university or leftwing media company), or that fact checkers have no bias (even though they all are based out of liberal news rooms - NYT, WaPo, Tampa, and seem to fact check Republicans by about 5 to 1).

And of course, Lester Holt has no bias either, he’s a registered Republican, you see. He simply ran out of time to bring up Benghazi, the smashing of phones, the bleaching of emails, the immunity deals, Obama knowing about her personal email server, Hillary collpasing on 9/11, her “deplorable” comment and such. First things first, you know - Rosie O’Donnell, fake birth certificates, personal taxes, and all the critical issues of our time.

Again, I wish I could be more like you. Way less stressful.

Ipsos spoke to 570 Republicans for the poll.

That’s 33 percent of the total.

I'm curious: Most of my Republican acquaintances and I myself will decline to take a poll. Is that common among Republicans in general?

This is just a spin poll. Ignore. It is way out of sample balance and they did it on purpose.

I believe most people, and especially cell phone users, are reluctant even to answer to an unknown number.

I believe I’ve read someplace in the past that conservatives are less likely to respond. But I couldn’t prove it.

In 2012 the Democrat/Republican voting was 6+ Democrats, not 12, and no way is Hillary going to match Obama’s +6.

So you take 43% democrat on the 1041 likely voter for 448; 39% GOP for 406. Of that 448 Hillary gets 84% and of the 406 Trump gets 78%. What am I missing?
