Good numbers for McGinty in this poll - basically mirroring Presidential race.

With them being a slight r favorable lately, not bad. Clintons probably leading around 6 here

OK poll. Don't like the fact the lead dropped from 10 to 4 with no early voting but she's definitely still fine in PA

Trump's improved performance has been driven by significant gains in the western portion of the state, where he now has a substantial 54% to 38% lead over Clinton.  Last month, Clinton actually had a very narrow edge of 45% to 42% in western Pennsylvania, whereas Trump held a 47% to 40% lead here in August.

Almost identical to what we've seen recently in PA. Tighter than it was, sure. Hillary still ahead by a decent amount, yes.

Important to note:

Quote
The poll was conducted after news broke about the FBI investigation of new emails during Clinton's tenure as Secretary of State.  Only 4% of Pennsylvania voters say this news caused them to change their minds about which candidate they would support.  The vast majority (89%) say these latest developments have had no impact on their vote and 6% are unaware of the news.  Among those who changed their vote, Trump has less than a 2:1 advantage, meaning the overall presidential vote margin shifted by no more than one percentage point specifically due to this breaking news.

PA remains a tough nut to crack for the GOP.  Close but not quite there.  Remains a long shot

Clinton plus 4 in Pennsylvania in two polls and, i'm told, roughly the same as internals

Clinton should win PA by an Obama '12ish margin.  Rendell bless the Philly suburbs.

Then that previous poll was junk. Western PA should be one of the best Trump regions outside of South

Good to see Trump is still polling below 45%.

I agree, I think that's one of the bigger take aways form this. If you consider that, they're still showing a Trump uptick, but not much of one.

Clinton should be fine here, and thus should win the election.

Dude, the MoE is probably like +/-10% on crosstabs. No need to worry about that nonsense.

I see Monmouth has decided to sacrifice their A pollster rating.

I hate the fork analogy, but yeah, McGinty should win as long as Clinton wins the state.

Weirdly, the Senate races are roughly where I thought they would be in early 2015, minus maybe Colorado and North Carolina.

Considering this poll was taken during the high-shock phase of the Comey news, this is a very good poll result.

This seems like it was held in the worst possible time for Hillary. I'm hoping she'll regain a bit in the final stretch.

But Trump just announced huge WIKILEAKES release today which he will speak about at tomorrow's event (rally) with his beautiful, gorgeous totally-not-Russian (but if she were Russian, what's the big deal) wife. No regaining is to come!

Nobody gives a flying rat about Wikileaks honestly.

Actually, anytime Trump and Wikileaks are mentioned in the same story, it reminds people of Trump's connections to Russia.

Bad for Trump.

Acceptable number.
Seems like PA is going to be no less than "Lean Dem" come Nov 8th.
Thank you Keystone State !
