So we are starting to have some divergence here which is interesting. Live caller polls show about a 6-8 point lead for Clinton. Online and IVR landline polls are showing a much tighter race. Which could mean it's a nail biter or it's not going to be close at all. The downside for Trump is that online polls overstated his results during the primaries whereas live caller polls were dead on.

Default LA Times Poll: Trump leads Clinton by 3

LA Times Tracking Poll: Trump Captures Six Point Swing, Leads Clinton by Three - Breitbart

Depends on which poll if any you find legit....This one or Monmouth.....I think all are wrong. I think he is up by at least 7 or 8.

Here's another question from the same poll:
PPP is openly biased to the left so that's why they only ask about Trump.

I love their questions LOL

It's funny because they have a slight GOP house effect.

No it's not funny it's reality.

When you people start denying well known facts you start sounding partial and biased like the Trumpettes.

If anything in any of the polls should be worrisome to HRC supporters, its the Independent voters in the swing states. They seem to be trending towards Trump. Disclaimer: I do not believe any polls are accurate.

I would stay away from the polls on MSM. They obviously are skewed one way or the other. The most accurate poll and certainly most reliable are the two polls on City Data.
