Internal polls are generally better than public polls, yes (at least the ones that aren't high quality polls funded my major media companies).

Really strange that Trump seems to consistently be doing much, much worse in private GOP polling than he is in public polls.

This has to have been one of the most impactful Presidential debates ever. Trump is crashing everywhere.

The 2004 and 2008 debates also had similar shifts (though the 2008 debate was mixed up Lehman Brothers and the aftermath of that). But IIRC in 2004 Bush was leading by like 10 points before the first debate, and then Kerry brought it back to a tie.

Of all the currently red states in the 538 forecast, Clinton has the third highest chance of winning Alaska, after Arizona and Georgia. Interesting......

Republican internals had a "Mark Foley-esque" drop after Trump's Machado comments, apparently.

The 7th race is Florida, by the way, not Wisconsin (thank god).

Josh K is a pretty pathetic GOP-spinning mouthpiece. They are likely in worse shape than that in those senate races.

Yeah, if this is what the GOP is spinning through sympathetic "journalists" then they really may be collapsing across the board.

All these internals are showing huge swings to Clinton in California. She could end up winning the state by 30 points.

Check this Caporale guy's twitter. He's literally just retweeting Reuters/Ipsos polls.

PPP says their polling has Clinton ahead in NH, for what it's worth.

If they're not going to release public polls, what would they be tweeting about? It's pretty rare that they release info on their polling for clients.

Even the Trump campaign admits Arizona is a tossup!

If Iowa can trend so far right in one cycle, it's not crazy to think Arizona can trend so far left at the same time. Arizona could even be to the left of Iowa.

If I had to guess, I think Trump ends up winning both by about the same margin (2-3 points).

John Harwood

"top GOP Senate strategist: "All races w/in MOE. think we have IN. concerned about PA/NV this morning. Trump finishing well. comes up short""

Reading between the lines... Indiana is the only one they think they will win and PA and NV are definitely gone.

I'm worried that things are shifting again.  We need to close strong to win the White House and the Senate.

People got out of the "OMG emails" to "oh sh**t, Trump could actually win, hell no" mentality.

Yeah, I don't buy the "Comey actually INCREASED Dem enthusiasm" spin, but I do think Trump closing the gap has scared Democrats into shifting back from unlikely to likely voters.

Campaigning on election day is stupid. You want your staff 100% focused on GOTV. Organizing an election rally is just a distraction.
