Then maybe you should have posted this poll to begin with. Posting a Bloomberg poll about this election carries as much weight as posting a Hetitage Foundation poll. Trumps numbers in this poll are not good, but notice the 6 point difference in the Bloomberg poll?
I wonder how the Sanders endorsement and the Texas shootings might affect the race. Trump pivoting into the idea of law and order was a pretty smart choice actually. Be interesting to see if he can keep that up.
I haven't dug into the numbers because I don't really care, but perhaps the reason the college educated number has declined as a percentage for Trump compared to McCain or Romney is because the high school grad, some college voters have increased significantly as a percentage of Republican voters?
This demographic may be voting in larger numbers and new voters due their significant participation in this election compared to previous recent presidential elections. Just a thought.
Hillary Clinton's Lead Over Trump Shrinks After Controversial Week: Poll
by HANNAH HARTIG, JOHN LAPINSKI and STEPHANIE PSYLLOS
Hillary Clinton's lead over Donald Trump narrowed to 3 points this week after several days of controversy following FBI Director James Comey's recommendation that no criminal charges be brought against the former secretary of state over her use of a private email server.
Poll is two weeks old. Most places aren't counting the Gravis/One America polls because of methodology issues. RCP had to average them out because the head to head, national, and 3-way polls were do divergent in difference.
I don't know where you see the poll I posted is 2 weeks old. It's dated as 7/10.
I think part of it is the democrats are talking about wage stagnation which has hit college educated people the hardest since 2004. Part of this has been cutbacks to public employees wage raises by state & federal governments.
We have all seen our net incomes pretty much stay stagnant, my wife a college professor has gone from a starting salary of 45k in 2008 to 52k which includes a promotion to associate professor. Her colleges who have been in the department 5 years longer make between 62 to 72k because of the pay raises between 4 to 6%. She only received a 1% raise before her promotion plus a promotion raise of 7k. She should be around 65k.
I'm guessing because she had negative news as well. They just sort of canceled each other out.
The difference is that it would hurt Trump if people really thought he was anti-semetic. A bully he is. A lover of wealth at all costs he is. A prodigy of Roy Cohn he is.
As for Clinton, a lying, corrupt politico who running for office to make herself richer and to serve the 1%, she is.
I'm voting third party because I don't share their value system.
She's lost another 3 points in a week on the NBC/Monkey weekly tracking poll. She now leads him by only 3 points.
2, She led him by 5 points last week.
