We'll see if the black number stays. In 2012 they were 13% in FL now they show 14% in exit poll. Also they show a decrease in whites in NC while there was an increase in early voting.

I actually think those numbers are semi-bad for Clinton. Was hoping for better. Quinnipiacs last numbers were better for her and her numbers with early voters in Florida doesn't look as good as hoped.

1) The number are slightly worse than Q's numbers for those two states in early november, even though there is the perception that Clinton has had a slight rebound.

2) The early vote lead in Florida is MoE stuff. We were already expecting Clinton to outpace Trump during early voting, the question was more whether she could get a big enough cushion before election day.

Or your looking for negatives where there are none.

By the way according to QU Trump takes 10% of D vs Clinton 7 of Reps.

It is self-reported though, but one can get a clue :P


And among early voters:
Presideent DK/NA 6%
Senate      DK/NA 4%
2% that say who they voted in senate, doesn't say whom the they voted for in president race ::)

Actually, there are enough  early voters now that their MOW isn't much less than the overall MOE.

And you're right, this poll has a lower EV lead for Clinton than several other Florida polls.

But I guess the upside is that if they are under-predicting her EV lead, then she'll have an even bigger overall lead than she does now...

Which means that that poll has a lower ED lead for Trump than several other Florida polls.

But I guess the upside is that if they are under-predicting his ED lead, then he'll have an even bigger overall lead than he does now...

It works both ways, you know ::)

Clinton should win both, though I do think NC will be closer.

But surely you see the advantage of Clinton having votes banked and going into Election Day already having a lead?  Especially when she's the one with the better ground game than Trump?

Yes, it is true.
But on other hand if Clinton was so good on turning in "unlikely" voters, she'd grow in polls, right? That's not what we seen so far; polls on average shows the same picture as before/at the start of EV, Trump's probably even gained a bit.

Except national polls. They are bringing are very dark news for Trump. And I am the one who relies more heavily on national polls trends :(

And I'm actually very worried that after today's Clinton +4-7, some Reps won't turn up + polls missing Hispanics :(

Especially when she's the one with the better ground game than Trump?
My opinion has always been that ground-game is
a) highly overrated
b) partly backed-in in polls (specially when so many EV:ed)

Clinton's best asset has always been Trump (females and Hispanics).

So in the presidential race only 92% of Florida respondents and 94% of NC respondent (who claimed they already voted) were willing to tell who they voted for.  That means that there is a pretty good bit of uncertainty in the result, with respect to how this block actually voted.

If you include "Other" and rounding errors it's actually 94% of FL EV and 96% of NC EV, but yes, that's right-- there's consistently a few % of EVs who don't reveal who they voted for.

As I've said before, I really don't understand why they don't just throw these non-respondents out of the poll. (Perhaps it's because they did respond to SEN or GOV candidate questions?)
