Did Donald Trump really just surge past Hillary Clinton in two of the election's most important battlegrounds?


New swing-state polls released Wednesday by Quinnipiac University show Trump leading Clinton in Florida and Pennsylvania — and tied in the critical battleground state of Ohio. In three of the states that matter most in November, the surveys point to a race much closer than the national polls, which have Clinton pegged to a significant, mid-single-digit advantage over Trump, suggest.


The race is so close that it's within the margin of error in each of the three states. Trump leads by three points in Florida — the closest state in the 2012 election — 42 percent to 39 percent. In Ohio, the race is tied, 41 percent to 41 percent. And in Pennsylvania — which hasn't voted for a Republican presidential nominee since 1988 — Trump leads, 43 percent to 41 percent.

It's July. The RNC always provides a boost in the polls. See Mitt Romney. LLS

How many times were we told he wasn't a serious candidate, that he would be dropping out, that he wouldn't be the GOP nominee and, not to leave out the latest, that he might just turn down the job and go home.

Unless Hillary gets a bump from Sanders supporters, she is looking pretty pathetic. Let us not forget that Sanders consistently polled several points higher in a run against Trump while Hillary barely held her own against Sanders. There is a math there that seems to escape some.

I notice they are trying to keep Hillary on the down low since every time she opens her mouth lately, she "inserts foot".

The polling is extremely close, especially when you look at the margin of error. Always remember and never forget that CNN is owned by Time Warner who donated almost $700,000 to Hillary's campaign so they will be on board to do whatever they think will advance her pathetic campaign.

One can only smile at the absurdity of how they read polling data and what they take away from it.

That's what happens when the so-called "liberal media" gives Trump $2 billion worth of free advertising. While surveys show that Mrs. Clinton has, overall, received much more negative coverage than her fact-challenged opponent.

People on here said Trump would've already quit or at least within the next month or so.
