While it missed the mark in 2012, Rasmussen Reports was the most accurate in 2008.

That will be an interesting question. Will people forgive him his past mistakes? Or since it's stuck where it was in June is this simply where it will remain? We will know over the next few weeks. He's beginning to soften his positions as well.

From a thread about Clinton crushing Trump among millennials:

Millennial's are not only the laughingstock of America but of the entire world.


As I said Trump people only pimp polls when they read what they like, when the don't they dismiss them.

LOL! You guys do love to cherry pick polls. 1 poll out of 20. Big frigging whoop. Even Mitt Romney and John McCain led in some of them. It's a tie anyway.

Per poll -

13.6% of black voters in the poll for Trump. Romney had around 5%. Trump would likely win if he could push that to 20%.

Trump is only losing the Hispanic vote by 22.5%.

Trump is winning the Asian vote.

Your national poll is worthless. I'd recommend you look at state by state polls.

Larry J. Sabato's Crystal Ball » CLINTON RISES TO 348 ELECTORAL VOTES, TRUMP DROPS TO 190

Also, Breitbart's chairman is Trump's manager. Don't you see the potential for biased reporting?

This is one of the most recent polls and has a large sample size. The LA Times poll is respected and renowned by both the left and the right.

I'll say it again. The denial of what is really happening by the Trump folks is so cute.

I wouldn't say that it's worthless but it's amusing how people here pick one poll that shows their candidate favorably but ignore the others.
