How can she be up by 7 in Ohio and 2 in Florida but only up 1 in the battleground tracker? It just doesn't make sense.

Ohio is 7% more African-American in this sample than IRL

Which is why the battleground tracker should safely be ignored. State polls will always be a better barometer of what's going on in these states.

Ohio's 2012 exit poll was 79% white, 15% African-American, and 6% other

Florida's 2012 exit poll was 67% white, 13% African-American, 17% Hispanic and 3% other (so YouGov's demographic sample checks out in both cases)

I stand corrected. But either way +7 seems like a big outlier

Something might be happening. Any attempt to unskew might lead to a healthy helping of crow. That goes for all polls today.

Gut feeling says she has a wider lead in FL than OH...my sense of how things stand is Clinton +4 in FL and Clinton +2 in OH

The Ohio poll does seem off, but so did the Trump +4 one.

Ohio is unionized and has the Cleveland suburbs (to a lesser extent, the Cincinnati suburbs) have a lot of educated voters. It's not unbelievable for Clinton to lead there.

Underweighted White Evangelicals horrirbly

I. Ohio

1. CNN Ohio Exit Poll 2012: White Evangelicals 31%
http://www.cnn.com/election/2012/results/state/OH/president/

2. CBS/YouGov Ohio 9/7-9/9. White Evangelicals 199 LV / Total 988 LV = 20.14%

3. Adjusted
1) TRUMP: White-Evans(31%)x66%+ Non-White-Evans(69%)x32% = 42.54%
2) Hillary: White-Evans(31%)x15% +  Non-White-Evans(69%)x53% = 41.22%
3) Johnson: White-Evans(31%)x10% +  Non-White-Evans(69%)x6%= 7.24%
4) Stein: White-Evans(31%)x1% +  Non-White-Evans(69%)x2% = 1.69%

II. Florida

1. CNN Florida Exit Poll 2012: White Evangelicals 24%

http://www.cnn.com/election/2012/results/state/FL/president/


2. CBS/YouGov Florida 9/7-9/9. White Evangelicals 166 LV /  Total 1193 LV = 13.9%

3. Adjusted
1) TRUMP: White-Evans(24%)x74%+ Non-White-Evans(76%)x36% = 45.12%
2) Hillary: White-Evans(24%)x14% +  Non-White-Evans(76%)x49% = 40.6%
3) Johnson: White-Evans(24%)x5% +  Non-White-Evans(76%)x5%= 5%
4) Stein: White-Evans(24%)x0% +  Non-White-Evans(76%)x2% = 1.52%

This appears to be an outlier in Ohio, but it's a pro Hillary outlier so it must be exact.

1. The electorate changes
2. It didn't work in 2012, and it won't work now.

There's a difference between criticizing a poll's methodology and sample composition and actually algebraically adjusting the results to fit some model you've decided to use (skewing). Skewing is beyond ridiculous and should be met with ridicule and scorn. If this site wasn't a gigantic joke Statespoll would already be banned.

Republican voters = 49% of electorate in 2012
Democratic voters = 50% of electorate in 2012

Trump: 100%*49% + 0%*50% = 49%
Clinton: 0%*49%+100%*50%=50%

Therefore Clinton will win Florida + 1 Roll Eyes
