On Friday, Clinton was up 4.6 pts over Trump. Today, it's 3.1 pts.

Her poll numbers are collapsing. Trump needs to tie the upcoming Rio Olympics disaster to Clinton.

Killary's unfavorables skyrocketing

The more Voters see of her, the less they like her.

CBS/NYT Poll.

TRUMP LEADS CLINTON BY SEVEN PERCENT

Yeah, but back in the real world they're still saying Trump has a 30% chance of winning.

http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2016/president/us/general_election_trump_vs_clinton-5491.html

IF you bet a lot on Trump a few months back, now would be a good time to lock in a profit by betting on Hillary.

On Friday, Clinton was up 4.6 pts over Trump. Today, it's 3.1 pts.

Her poll numbers are collapsing. Trump needs to tie the upcoming Rio Olympics disaster to Clinton.

Now the average of polls has Clinton's lead shrinking to 2.7%.

Looks like Bernie dropping out has hurt her. Sad, folks, real sad.

Trump On The Ticket Could Mean Connecticut Is In Play

"I think a lot of people are thinking it's going to be a blowout with Hillary in a blue state like this,'' Rose said. "I am not as absolutely as confident in that conclusion as some others are. The demographics and the party distribution are lined up against Trump, but the independent vote in Connecticut could be decisive. We are talking about 41 percent of the registered voters, and Trump could tap into that. He will do well among Republicans, and he will do well among independents. That could result in Connecticut being in play.''

State Rep. John Frey, a Republican National Committee member and Cleveland convention delegate, said Connecticut is "definitely'' in play based on his conversations with voters around the state.

"I was getting tires at Town Fair Tire in Danbury,'' said Frey, a Ridgefield resident. "There was an African American guy working there, and he was all excited about Trump. I was in The Owl Shop in New Haven a month ago, talking to three young people in there. Two of them are living with their parents, and one had four part-time jobs. They're saddled with heavy student loans. They want to try something new, and that's what Trump represents.''

Donald Trump may be winning converts from an unlikely source — Democrats — a new unpublished poll shows.

What's more, according to the poll, Trump is tied with Hillary — and in fact, the Republican candidate is within striking distance in several historically Democratic states.

Sources I interviewed said the poll was conducted by the Harper Polling Firm for the U.S. Senate campaign of GOP State Rep. Dan Carter.

The as-yet published poll shows Trump tied with Clinton — each with 43 percent — in heavily Democratic Connecticut.

Trump now predicted to win parts of Maine (which splits it's electoral votes).

So if Clinton maintains a slight lead in national polls due to lopsided liberal states, Trump actually would have a pretty comfortable election today.

Johnson getting 5%, hahahahaha. Some of these polls are complete BS.

Trump aide: Close to 20 states in play

"The target list is actually expanding, the 12 battleground states are probably closer to 20 now," Paul Manafort said at a Bloomberg Politics breakfast in Cleveland, according to Bloomberg News.
He named Oregon, Connecticut, Wisconsin, Iowa, Nevada, New Mexico, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Virginia as states that are "in play."

In the 2012 election, President Obama won all of those states.

Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus said Sunday he thinks Trump will "expand the map," adding he thinks the party will be able to "flip" a few states to win.

I think it's very telling that for the last 3 months the biggest news story in the world was "Who will Donald Trump pick as his running mate?"

Then the second biggest under reported story is, nobody gives a crap about Hillary's running mate nor the lack of any publicity on her running mate selection.
Though I did find this obscure article on HIllary's top 5 pick.

http://www.latimes.com/politics/la-na-pol-clinton-vp-prospects-20160714-snap-htmlstory.html

The lack of interest in Hillary's VP pick is demostrative of the people have already spoken.

That's a good point. Nobody gives a shit about Hillary's running mate, which is illustrative of the large numbers that won't be bothered to vote for her.

Tenpoundbass says

I think it's very telling that for the last 3 months the biggest news story in the world was "Who will Donald Trump pick as his running mate?"

While it's pretty funny that you think that was the biggest news story of the last 3 months, the reason is more because his campaign is such a clown show that people were curious who would actually agree to be his VP. And the off chance that he'd pick someone completely nuts just to get more publicity.

Never in my life have I seen an election where people just don't want you to vote for your guy.
They aren't demanding you vote for their guy(which has been the case in the past).
They just want to stop you from going to the polls, rallying and supporting your candidate.

This is some pretty chickenshit weak stuff here. Hilary's rallies are Whiter than the Brady Bunch.

Hillary will be in jail by November mock my words.

Tenpoundbass says

mock my words.

He usually does.

I'm going to wait until a few days after the RNC to post an accurate update of Trump versus Clinton polling averages in this thread.

It's not going to be pretty.

Pollster: Trump Will Win Because Majority of Americans Seek Change From Obama

She's still down 1.5% from just a few days and several polls ago.

Clearing out Bernie has actually made her lose points rather than gain them.

I LOL'd at one poll having Johnson at 17%.

thunderlips11 says

Johnson getting 5%, hahahahaha.

Anything more than 3% is prob ridiculous; Still not convinced that trump will pull it out against hillary but as high as 17% for Johnson is really silly

Mrs. Trump now.

Poll: Trump Leads Clinton by 11 Points with Independents

Donald Trump is leading presumptive Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton by 11 points with Independents, 38 percent to 27 percent, according to a new Morning Consult poll.

zzyzzx says

Poll: Trump Leads Clinton by 11 Points with Independents

Translation: THe ugly Fox news, Talk Radio, etc, moronic nature of right wing media in the past 20 years has caused many more republicans to refer to themselves as independents than democrats.

It would be interesting to know how Trump is doing among true independents That is people that never considered themselves D or R and who have voted for a lot of people on both sides.

My guess is at least 11% in the other direction.

What kind of person does it take to not see unacceptable risk with Trump as President ? MAybe some people don't realize that terrible things can happen. And if they do, he would be the President ? How can you not get this ? How would he handle a worse financial crisis than 2008 ? Or being on the brink of WW3. You really feel that you can trust that guy ? What are you people thinking ?

Consider Hillary's closest confidant, a rhode scholar that has been President before.

I mean we all have an intuition about these things. How does yours tell you Trump is the answer ?

37% for both Trump and Hillary.

CLINTON CAMPAIGN FREAKING OUT AS DONALD TRUMP LEADS IN THE POLLS

In a recent poll done by OANN/Gravis where they asked 40% Dems, 33% Republicans and 27% Independents who they would vote for, Donald Trump won with flying colors. Keep in mind these poll numbers came out before the DNC email leaks, where they were exposed for collusion with the media, lies and deception. Once new polls come out, there will be an even more drastic difference in people not wanting to vote for Hillary Clinton and i’m sure a lot jumping on to the Trump train.

The truth is that is socially unacceptable to say you are a Trump supporter with fear of losing jobs, friends and family many people say they will vote Democrat. Although, it’s possible that on election day, Trump could end up with upwards of 57% of the popular vote.

Donald Trump is known for saying “I haven’t even started on her yet” and this is very true. Once Donald Trump faces Hillary Clinton in a one on one debate in September.. things will change drastically. Now that the DNC email leak is making the rounds of the main stream circuit, it’s obvious that there will be another major drop in Clinton’s numbers in the polls.

Clinton campaign is most definitely freaking out at this point, in an attempt to overshadow Clinton’s misuse of emails they choose Tim Kaine as VP who is supposedly strong on foreign affairs. Sanders supporters who Hillary needs to win this election are very skeptical of Kaine and his support for NAFTA, Trans-Pacific Partnership and his recent move for regulations on small sized banks.

Notice something about the last few polls?

The bigger the sample size, the better Trump does. Likely Voters - reliable voters - favor Trump.

The more Voters see of her, the less they like her.

-------------

Can she hide out in a discreet safe zone for a couple months? That's her only hope.

That and relying on the populace being gullible enough to eat up all the anti-Trump propaganda

Trump Takes Commanding Lead in LA Times/USC Poll

Donald Trump has taken a commanding lead over Hillary Clinton in the latest LA Times/USC Poll. The poll shows Trump leading with 45.1% to Hillary’s 41.7%.

Going into the Republican National Convention, Donald Trump had a very slim lead against Hillary Clinton in the same poll. It’s now clear that the Convention and the most recent WikiLeaks/DNC email scandal is helping Trump.
