Gallup: “Amid the news frenzy leading up to the first general election debate of 2016, fewer U.S. adults rate themselves highly likely to vote for president than did so in September of each of the past four presidential election years.”

Key takeaway: “The 65% of Democrats saying they will definitely vote is well below their average for the prior four presidential elections (77%), whereas the 76% of Republicans saying they will definitely vote is only a bit lower than their prior average (81%).”

Blatant efforts are blatant.

8. Are you calling applegrove a troll?

Because most here would find your accusation really, really nasty.

11. Mistaken assumptions that people make are not my problem.

ETA: And based on the other replies on this thread, which you somehow forgot to accuse the same way, I'm not alone questioning the validity of this link.

3. Maybe many just ID as Independent but will still vote?

5. I'm not concerned at all.

6. New voter registration is way up in my neck of the woods.

Where I live it bodes well for Democrats. I'm not worried about reports like this one.

7. I hope/expect (??) this to change just like the rest of the polls.

10. I read the same thing every four years.

12. If 11% more Reps than Dems really say that they are highly likely to vote...

Trump would be ahead in a lot more of the polls based upon likely voters, wouldn't he?

[mcar]

13. I do not believe this report

[book_worm]

14. Gallup the organization which embarrassed itself in 2012 by consistently predicting

a Romney win? Besides this poll was taken before the debate so it's obsolete.

15. Who's Responsible For This?

some of his most ardent surrogates/supporters are still doing their best on social media encouraging the disgruntled to not vote or to vote for people who will never win.

16. They are just playing mind games.

There will be a surplus of worried voters this year, I can promise you that. Many people saw Little Donny become unhinged and that is going to amplify for 6 more weeks as he cracks under pressure.

HRC in a landslide, Senate and a dozen House seats.
