Hillary Clinton leading by +4 in Rasmussen

[TroyD]

Hillary Clinton is leading by +4 in Rasmussen this morning.

I don't normally pay attention to Rasmussen polls because of their pro-Republican bias, but this is their best number for Hillary in a month.

So I thought it was interesting enough to post. For whatever it's worth.

The seesaw battle between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump finds the Democratic nominee back in the lead.

The latest Rasmussen Reports weekly White House Watch national telephone and online survey shows Clinton with 43% support to Donald Trump’s 39%. Libertarian candidate Gary Johnson gets nine percent (9%) of the vote, and Green Party candidate Jill Stein earns two percent (2%). Another two percent (2%) like some other candidate, and five percent (5%) are undecided. (To see survey question wording, click here.)

Last week, Trump edged ahead of Clinton 40% to 39%. It was the first time he had been in the lead since mid-July. The latest finding is Clinton’s best showing in a month, but the race remains a close one, within or just outside our survey’s +/- 3 margin of error for months.

3. Trump's momentum may have stopped

This could mean Trump's momentum has stopped.

So it will be interesting to see whether this development continues.

4. He never had any momentum...

the dip in Hillary's lead was caused by slight drops in her numbers, mostly just the post bounce normalization. Trump's numbers remain pretty flat, like they have all summer. He's basically crawling along on his floor, the die-hards that actually like him plus the idiots that would vote R no matter what.

Now the real game is on.

The Trump camp is trying it's best to spin out of it, but Trump lost the CiC forum. No contest.
