Not sure wtf is going on in NV, but the rest of these numbers are good. Pollster is a low rank (C-) but this is good for trend. All post Comey. I've seen a couple of Nevada polls like this, but this runs contrary to the ACTUAL vote coming in so far. Right now, Clarke is 5000 away from it being mathematically impossible for Trump to win Nevada. I think they're having trouble polling hispanics.

Hopefully, turnout will turn OH blue too. Latinos may make the difference in Texas. They are already turning Fl, AZ and NV blue.

NV may mean everyone's missing Hispanics.

(34 posts)... as Tim Russert said in 2000. Every talking head out there has said that Trump cannot win without Florida. Look at the set of polls with the most recent data, and keep in mind the results of the Target Smart poll that incorporated early vote data.

(4,533 posts)More dems are early voting than republicans. So how can polls show Trump doing well? Apparently polls think Trump is winning independents by 20% or more. Jon Ralston, the dean of Nevada political reporters, thinks Trump can't do that well with independents.

By the end of the weekend, Hillary should be ahead in all the relevant polls. I suspect a lot of GOP women are voting for Hillary, but not answering polls.
Survey Monkey is probably understating her lead. Here in FL, we are focused on GOTV!

(4,667 posts)How to count hispanics there for some reason. The NH number is great. The only problem point is WI and MI. But she leads in both, and other polls have her ahead by more.

(68,578 posts)There are about 150,000 more Democrats in Clark County. John Ralston criticized it last night on one of the shows on MSNBC.

(44,173 posts)The NC results are especially great news; the NH poll is a nice antidote to that other nervewracking poll that came out today. And a steady small lead in Florida.
