NV continues to be really close somehow ...

BTW, they did not forget Jill Stein in VA - she has not filed there yet.

Actually not. It seems the poll was weighted according to 2012 exit polls, with 19% Hispanics.

And they back Clinton over Trump by a lot ...

Amd they'd back her even more overwhelmingly if there was a spanish language choice.

Not necessarily. If anything, Hillary is undervalued by 2-3% at best because both she and Trump have 100% name recognition, even among Latinos. It simply doesn't matter if you ask "are you voting for Clinton or Trump ?" or the Spanish version of it because they are known to everyone.

Is there really no Spanish option? How can you poll NV and AZ without a Spanish interviewer or questionnaire

Don't be silly: If you are smart enough to register for the YouGov online panel in ENGLISH, you are also smart enough to fill out a simple question that asks "Are you voting Clinton or Trump ?"

No Spanish needed.
