New Politico/Daily Consult National Poll finds NO CHANGE in Clinton's Lead from polls conducted before Comey's bombshell.
Poll was conducted entirely on Saturday and Sunday AFTER Comey Announcement.
Clinton 42%
Trump 39%
Johnson 7%
Stein 5%
Quote:
But the new information appears to have not had much influence on the race, according to the new poll. In a poll conducted before Comey's letter was released, Clinton had a similar 3-point lead in a four-way matchup.
By later today or tomorrow, we should have more post-Comey polls that will either confirm or refute this early finding, but the really critical thing will be in the state poll results, particularly of that group of states beyond FL, IA, NV, NC and OH that Trump will need to dent to reach 270; CO, MI, MN, NH, PA, VA, WI.

There is another slight update from 538 this evening:
Clinton 78.9, Trump 21.0 chance of winning.
No one can deny there seems to be a tightening of the race this weekend ... according to Real Clear Politics, Hillary leads with just 47.6 to Donald's 43.3%
538 has a further tightening: Clinton 77.3, Trump 22.7.
Electoral votes: Clinton 315.2
Trump: 221.7
McMullin 1.1
Today, Mr. Trump will be in Michigan (which 538 says: 84.7 percent of Clinton winning) and tomorrow Wisconsin (Clinton 83.1 percent change of winning).
Nothing on Mr. Trump's schedule for Wednesday. Guess he will be resting. Then to North Carolina for Thursday (Clinton 61.9 percent).
Today, Ms. Clinton will be in Ohio (Trump 55.9 percent), and tomorrow, Florida (Clinton 57.6 percent). Then back to Arizona on Wednesday. Of course, I still maintain that Florida will be very, very close, as it usually is. Of course, she does have a superior 'ground game' in that state.
Former President Clinton will also be in Florida tomorrow. I hope he doesn't try to speak Spanish. I imagine that Hillary is on pins and needles anytime her husband speaks. I was very worried about what he would end up saying at the DNC, but he did rather well. He has good days and bad days, I guess.
