Same poll that has Trump up in NH by 2... had him up 9 in July. It's landline only and was a huge outlier in July & is right now.

[Erich Maria Remarque]

The had Trump +9 JUL. 19-21.

[Sir Mohamed]

Junk and the sample size is pretty small. NH turning red this cycle is not happening.

[Virginiá]

I probably should have asked this a long time ago, but what is wrong with decimals?

[Speed of Sound]

Yep, that's Clinton +7 from July, a good result. That said, it's smarter to just toss this thing.

They tend to only be included by lesser quality pollsters, and the accuracy of such decimals in a normal poll with a 3 or 4 point margin of error is not great.

Any worthwhile pollster would know that any decimal places are essentially meaningless due to MOE.

[Virginiá]

oh ok. thanks

[Eraserhead]

The sample of angry and/or nasty women is way too small. Junk poll!

Sort of. The "problem" with decimals is actually related to the "problem" with daily trackers, namely, public gives to much attention to fluctuation and noise.

[Mallow]

oh ok. thanks

You can think of it this way... imagine if an economic forecast called for a change in the deficit next year of $2,170,327.33, +/- $30,000.00 ... You'd probably (rightly) wonder why they didn't just report it as $2,170,000 in the first place.

I doubt Hillary is as low as 42%, but Trump is definitely on track to win here.

[Sir Mohamed]

Sure, as he’s on track to win the whole thing and move to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue coming January.

totes definitely

He has a solid shot at winning the 3rd congressional district.

[StatesPoll]

Junk and the sample size is pretty small. NH turning red this cycle is not happening.

400 LV = small for states like FL/NC/PA

But 400 LV = decent sample size for 4 EV state.

and I clear remember, In here most red avatars reacted very happy with FL/PA/NC polls
which were Hillary +5% with 400~500ish LV sample size

anyway with this Poll another 270 path for TRUMP.

Romney + FL + OH + IA + NC + NH + NV + ME-2 = 270

Here is the link for breakdown.

They also acknowledge below:

"Weighting is not a silver bullet for survey bias. The sample used in this study was collected using only landline telephone numbers, and while weighting may address nonresponse bias to a great degree, sampling bias introduced by targeting landline telephone users cannot be addressed by weighting. It is well known that landline-only samples tend to be more conservative, even after appropriate weighting is applied. The results of this survey should be compared to the findings of other landline-only samples. "

With Colorado, Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin all in play as well.

In theory, sure. But your hero is still lagging behind in FL and NC. Especially NC, where Romney won. This is an absolute must-win for Mr. Drumpf unless he can’t win PA. The other ones are also pretty close. If he loses one of them, OH in particular, he’s done.

CO would be another theoretical option. But it looks like NV is more realistic (at least in polls), though I don’t think that he’s going to win either of them.
