I'd like to see things keep moving. I'm happy with the LA Times/USC poll, but it's only one poll. (And I can't say I understand its methodology.

The internals of that one have Trump ahead in all age groups, and winning 35-75K and over 75K, but losing Under 35K by a wide margin (big shock, that, right?)

The other thing I don't understand is if he's winning men by 16% and losing women by only 6%, how is his lead in the poll only around 6%. Women represent 52-53% of the vote, but it should tip the deficit so far.

And, as usual, the "perception" poll has Trump down. UGH!

“I’d like to see things keep moving. I’m happy with the LA Times/USC poll, but it’s only one poll. (And I can’t say I understand its methodology”

It’s not just la times. It’s all 3 tracking polls that have trump in the lead. The other 2 are the PPD poll and the UPI poll. Google them and you’ll see.
I agree, I’d like to see all polls in our favor, but something isn’t right. All three daily tracking polls have trump ahead. All major conventional polls have Hillary in the lead. I just hope the tracking are right. This article seems to argue in favor of the la times methodology -

Also read the study linked at the bottom of the article. I hope this is correct.
