[Mr. Morden]

According to this writeup:

http://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-election-idUSKCN10L1JT

"nearly one fifth" of Republicans in this poll said that Trump should drop out of the race, and another 10% said they weren't sure if he should.

[Wells]

Just out of curiosity how does "Wouldn't Vote" get through a likely voter screen with these guys? Are these folks really undervoting POTUS in Reuters' mind?

It's because they're junk.

Wouldn’t Vote              3.1% (+0.4%)

1,115 LV (August 7-11, 2016)

Note: Rounding 40.5 to 41 and 35.3% down to 35 creates a the +6 4-way margin, margin in 4-way is 5.2% with decimals.

Likewise, rounding 41.2 down to 41 and rounding 35.6 up to 36 creates +5 in 2-way, even though margin is 5.6% with decimals.

I wonder how many Democrats would say Clinton should drop out just cause?

So the race is closing a bit.  It's now been about 10 days since Trump said anything crazy and all of the major news stories since 8/10 or so have been a net negative for Dems.  It's interesting how quickly the tied/tilt R fundamentals kick in once Trump acts normal for a little while.  Of course, he will probably throw it all away with an off-the-wall debate performance.

That or just regular fluidity in the polls. It's called Margin of Error for a reason.

There's definitely a regression to pre-convention levels. You can see it in the USC tracker. Trump enthusiasm is almost matching Clinton's at this point. Also, with a lot of these R/D/I breakdowns, the levels of non-support by partisans is similar between Clinton and Trump.

Once these RV go the way of the dodo bird, which should be in the next few weeks, It will be a 3-5 point race again.

Its funny seeing you cling to the junk daily tracking polls most of us have written off.

LV is quite likely to help Clinton on net, as even Quinnipiac has shown.

Except when the data is reduced to practice and the opposite is true. See Reuters.

And empirical evidence that every LV poll is to the right of RV polls from every pollster.

It's a significant increase from the 8/17 polling in Hillary's favor.

[Devout Centrist]

These polling fluctuations are odd indeed.

[Classic Conservative]

These polling fluctuations are odd indeed.

It's Reuters, they've been like this for months.

[The Other Castro]

Reuters is junk and shouldn't be taken seriously.

[Gass3268]

Reuters is junk and shouldn't be taken seriously.

None of the daily tracking polls should be taken seriously.

[OwlRhetoric]

Weird volatility. I keep following these daily trackers to see if they ever show signs of emerging trends, but I agree, they're all really questionable.

[dspNY]

Reuters is junk and shouldn't be taken seriously.

None of the daily tracking polls should be taken seriously.

The debate commission isn't taking them seriously. end thread

[Yank2133]

Tracking polls are garbage.

[Lief 🗽]

Weird, I was told that a Clinton +8 lead was a huge outlier that only Democratic hack polling firms would come up with........

[Maxwell]

Junk.

that being said, maybe people are laughing at his fake apology.

[Seriously?]

You're confusing the 2-way numbers with the 4-way numbers, but I digress. And yes, it was a partisan poll.

[Landslide Lyndon]

Glorious poll.

Seriously is making krazey proud with his furious unskewing.
