The poll include people who were not registered to vote.

How long before shrill, loony teebaggers begin shrieking that the "polls are biased"? Just like they whined in 2008 and 2012.

LOL

Virginia = voted for Obama twice. 2 Dem senators. A liberal Dem governor.

VA = the next blue state. All thanks to liberal, educated Northern Virginia, where over 1/3 of all Virginians live.
Plenty of "educated' people are low information voters. There are far too many like that in NoVA.

Hillary has name recognition. People who liked her husband will vote for her, she panders for the hispanic vote, and then you have those who receive some form of assistance from the FED. These people will never vote for a GOP candidate.
Why didn't you just go ahead and add the 47% comment, Mitt?

Let's see - you actually think Hillary will win based on the Hispanic vote and anyone on government assistance?

I'm guessing a whole lot of those folk vote Republican.

The January poll will likely change.
then the February poll will change back.
Then the March poll will change again....
and so it will go, until the FINAL poll, and we will KNOW who won.
I have no idea who I will vote for, but I know full well that it will NOT be hillary!
Not in 2016, not EVER, for ANY office!

Government workers who live off the government teat. Good to see you have no problem backing a sleazy liar like Hillary. Nothing wrong with taking over $10 million in bribes from the Saudis for the Clinton Foundation because those rape victims deserved it right?
Or getting us involved with Syria and Libyas civil wars right? I mean what could possible go wrong?
The Tea party isn't the loony ones here.

You left out some info:

Republican Senate, Majority 21 to 19.

Republican House of Delegates, Majority 66 to 34.

Can't imagine why people put stock in a poll that includes people who are not registered to vote. I suppose that's a symptom of those who struggle to find anything good about the DNC picking King Hillarious as their nominee by soviet style methods (huge number of un-elected Super Delegates).

They should be asking. Where's Hillary, why isn't she campaigning for nomination, where are her rallies, etc etc etc. But she's been sequestered away from the common people an only appears in tightly scripted and controlled events. Can't imagine why anyone would be "proud" to have someone like this lead the USA.

Did you read the poll questions starting with question 62?

They split up those that are not registered into several categories. Those that aren't likely to register were excluded from the Q&A of who they would pick for president.

Start at questions 62 and 63. Those questions were only given to people that are registered or plan to register. Folks that didn't plan to register were excluded from being asked those questions, so they weren't counted.
