According to Sharyl Attkinsson this poll sampled 18.9% more dems than republicans. Last I hear dems and repubs were more like even. Does that mean than if this poll reflected reality that Trump would be u 9%?

Here is what Sharyl said in her latest tweets:

"Just for curiosity sake since most polls iview more Dems, wd be interesting to see results of poll that iviews 18% more Repub.

NBC/WSJ interviewed 440 who identify as Dems, 370 Repubs. So 70 (18.9%) more Dems. HC is ahead in this sample by 10 percentage pts."

How can they sample 18.9% more democrats and make this poll credible?

Here are the internals of the poll.

What the heck??

Hillary up by double digits, in a poll conducted entirely after the 2nd debate?

After the 2nd debate in which even liberal media talking heads said that Trump performed very well, and arguably “won” the debate??? That debate?????

But Hillary is up by double digits nationally, but Trump is ahead or within single digits in many of the battleground states??

Can all of these statements be true???

[ETL]

Real Clear Politics has the national average of the polls at just over 5 pts.

[thoughtomator]

For reference, accurate party weighting is something like D+3.

I’m no longer bothered by such obviously biased polls. It will lull Clintonites into complacency while fooling no one else.

[TheCipher]

These “national polls” don’t matter. It is going to come down to the battleground states.

[stocksthatgoup]

Including 18.9% was brilliant

[bigbob]

[ArcadeQuarters]

Designed to weigh down the average Trump numbers when combined with other, more accurate polls.

[tcrlaf]

Notice how the +Dem sample keeps increasing, to feed the narrative?

[NYC-RepublicanCT]

I wish folks would stop with this misleading 18% more crap... by that method, a D+5, where Dems=35%, Repub = 30%, that’s showing 17% more Dems than Repubs? Come on... there’s already plenty of misinformation out there

How can they sample 18.9% more democrats and make this poll credible?

They don't care in the least about making the poll credible -- Since it took oversampling democrats by that much to give hillary a double-digit lead, that's what they did. Credibilty be damned; get us the poll results we want.

[God luvs America]

do you have a link to Attkinson’s statement??

[nevermorelenore]

meant to make us not shocked by rigged results due to voter fraud and electronic “glitches” an and trunk loads of “found” ballots.....

[Daniel Ramsey]

Bull feces poll. I don’t believe ANY of them, as soon as the word POLL appears i tune it out.

[CodeToad]

It only takes about 6% swing to win and it seems that poll says Trump has 7% over Hillary.

[Hattie]

Wow. 18% fraud - they are really reaching out past the cemeteries now.

[AmusedBystander]

Covered by Sundance very well.

So that brings us to today, when we are able to see the initial indications of how far Murdoch is going.

Unusually visible tonight on the BOR show is a fellow named Daron Shaw.

Many of you are already familiar with Shaw because we have outlined him frequently. Daron Shaw is a big GOPe party operative (TX) with deep connections to the Bush family global agenda and the BIG GOPe elements within the UniParty. In addition to being Murdoch’s Fox Pollster, Shaw was also the backbone of Rick Perry’s prior campaign for the Presidency.

Suffice to say, Shaw is part of the Bush-Murdoch-Romney-Rubio mold of Wall Street legislative items, and in full alignment with Tom Donohue and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce.

So Daron Shaw appears Thursday night to discuss Fox’s latest poll (which he conducted because he is “Shaw Research and Associates” – but they never tell you that part).

The poll result he provides is highlighted in the tweet below from Fox (look closely):

Oh my. It appears that Trump has been hurt by the coordinated NBC/Universal hit that took place a week ago (the trump Access Hollywood edited tapes). Remind yourself, the NBC/Universal design was to follow-up with a bad poll. This poll release dovetails nicely with that messaging.

Unfortunately, it’s fundamentally too easy to see through Daron Shaw’s attempt.

Look at the poll internals and you’ll immediately note the difference between “October 3-6”, to “NOW” is created entirely by the a shift of the sample:

All Daron Shaw did was increase the number of Democrats and decrease the number of responding Republicans. The poll shifted by 7% toward Democrats.

The “NEW” poll of Likely voters is 45% Dem -vs- 36% Rep (9% more Dem, or D+9).

The Oct 3-6 poll of Likely voters was 41% Dem -vs- 39% Rep (2% more, or D+2).

In essence, if you factor in only a 1% gain for Hillary with a 7% increase in Democrats, the actual poll result heavily favors an improvement by Donald Trump. However, that doesn’t fit the unified (Corporate Media) narrative need.

Daron Shaw delivers the Murdoch agenda for Mr Wall Street [Hi Rupert].

However, the appearance of Daron Shaw in coordination with Fox News Vice-President Bill Sammon (circled below) in charge of the debates, and prior knowledge of Fox’s debate set-up strategy against Donald Trump…. well, now we’re getting down to brass tacks.

Don’t forget Fox’s VP of Political Content Bill Sammon’s daughter, Brooke Sammon, was Marco Rubio’s national spokesperson during his presidential bid. Remember the debate where Marco seemed to already know a few of the questions? Well….
