Exclusive–Breitbart/Gravis Swing State Poll Roundup: FL, NM VA, NC and MI
Breitbart ^ | Nov 7 2016 | Neil W. McCabe

Posted on 11/07/2016 5:55:13 PM PST by Alter Kaker

These Breitbart/Gravis five swing state polls show a nation in flux as America’s 2016 presidential election ends Tuesday night.

Virginia

Democrat Hillary Clinton leads her GOP rival Donald Trump with 47 percent to 42 percent for the New York City developer in the battle for Virginia’s 13 electoral votes, according to the Breitbart/Gravis poll conducted Nov. 1 through Nov. 4 with 1,362 registered voters there.

The poll carries a 2.7 margin of error with a 95 percent level of confidence.

Libertarian Gary Johnson has the support of four percent of the poll participants with Green Party nominee the choice of one percent.

The voters have similar feelings for the two major candidates, 34 percent had a strongly favorable opinion of Clinton and 26 percent had a strongly favorable opinion of Trump. Forty-six percent had a strongly unfavorable opinion of Clinton with 48 percent for Trump.

Fifty-five percent said the country was going in the wrong direction to the 36 percent of Virginia voters who said the country was going in the right direction.

Fifty-five percent said that President Barack Obama‘s healthcare reform, Obamacare, was a success, 42 percent said it was not.

Fifty-three percent of Virginia voters said they wanted the next president to change the polices of the Obama administration, 42 percent said those policies should continue.

Republican Mitt Romney lost Virginia to Obama in the 2012 presidential election with 47 percent of the vote to the president’s 51 percent.

The Virginia poll was conducted by Gravis Marketing, a Florida-based polling company, with a combination of interactive voice response polling and an internet panel of cell phone users. Results were weighted to match a proprietary turnout model.

Breitbart’s got to do some homework next time it chooses polling companies.

Why are they still using registered voters rather than likely voters?

Isn’t Gravis a Repub firm. These numbers suck, but all inside the margin of error.

No clue - the internals are all at the link. Not sure what Breitbart/Gravis are doing.

Very odd that it’s Registered...so no likely screen applied. It true, add 3 or 4 points towards Trump.

“Fifty-five percent said that President Barack Obama‘s healthcare reform, Obamacare, was a success...”

That’s all you need to know about the people in this poll.

They’re reporting their polling data. The last 8 years this forum has dismissed polls showing Obama ahead. Sorry but Trump has an uphill battle to win this tmrw. The Clinton corruption machine will not be easily defeated.

I think you're right, but 3-4 is a little high. Nate Silver (I know, I know) says that likely screens only help Trump about .8 points. That would be a swing of just under 2. That would be enough to give Trump Florida, North Carolina and maybe Nevada - enough possibly to swing the election.
