RealClearPolitics - Election 2016 - General Election: Trump vs. Clinton
Logic has it that Trump gets zero Obama voters. While Hillary maintains a hold on most of them. And, that's good news because Obama wiped the electoral vote floor with both McCain and Romney.
Turnout is the key, however. Hillary needs to get the Obama voter out. But, baring Donald pulling a Russian hacker out of his sleeve, this is probably over because Trump is not going to be getting much Christian support.
I don't put much trust in logic this campaign season. How many times has Trump had a voter ceiling shattered? Those polls still show a neck and neck nationwide race and too many toss up swing states for Democrats to take any comfort. We'll get a better view of the campaign after the post DNC polls come in next week. If Clinton gets no bounce, her campaign is in real trouble.The red line has fallen sharply over the past week.

Exactly.Here's the one that's more accurate - the four way ballot number: RealClearPolitics - Election 2016 - General Election: Trump vs. Clinton vs. Johnson vs. Stein
Right on!I don't put much trust in logic this campaign season. How many times has Trump had a voter ceiling shattered? Those polls still show a neck and neck nationwide race and too many toss up swing states for Democrats to take any comfort. We'll get a better view of the campaign after the post DNC polls come in next week. If Clinton gets no bounce, her campaign is in real trouble.
BTW, all this fuss about the Russian hackers makes Democrats furious, and rightly so, but it also reminds voters of Clinton's most recent email scandal. If more emails drip, drip, drip into the media over the coming months, then these aggregate polls may change again---in the wrong direction.
I hope you are right and that I'm wrong. I sincerely do.
Right on!
Actually, much of the country doesn't pay much attention until they get the kids back in school and have put Labor Day behind them! That's when the polls start converging & getting more accurate.
But you make good points. I believe Clinton stands more to lose, since these emails and all surrounding them is out of her control. Trump can somewhat control his own destiny by simply not screwing-up, but often that seems too tall of an order for him!
But barring a very large post-convention HRC bump, I'd call Trump extremely competitive, and while I can't support it with quantified evidence - my gut says Trump just may pull this off.
Watch Florida: I'm predicting the candidate that wins FL, will win the election! I feel strongly about this.
I can't speak to his "bottom falling out", but do see him as competitive and possibly winning.
Exactly.
It's a multi-candidate election, *not* a one-on-one personality contest.

[And also very importantly, it's an electoral college vote - not popular vote]

I predict Trump will take Florida....and Pennsylvania will decide the election....because of the blue collar working class.
Even more ironic if it was the Russians.
You know, after just checking the polls for the first time since before the DEM convention - you may be right.I predict Trump will take Florida....and Pennsylvania will decide the election....because of the blue collar working class.

I didn't realize how far PENN is now lagging OH & FL for Trump.
I'm wondering if Sen Rubio's entrance into the Senate race might be helping bringing FL around for Trump, too.
Thanks for bringing this to my attention.

I've never heard of RABA Research. 537 gives the firm a B- rating after reviewing just one of their polls this season. I would feel better if RABA's findings were replicated in one of 537's most rated polling firms like Survey USA or Quinnipiac or the like.The first post-convention poll shows Clinton with a healthy lead. About 950 voters.
Clinton 46
Trump 31
Johnson 7
Stein 2
MOE is about 3%
"The poll comes from RABA Research, a bipartisan polling firm, which conducted an online nationwide survey the Friday following the convention.
Among likely voters, Clinton is now polling at 46 percent; Donald Trump, 31 percent. Libertarian Gary Johnson’s polling at 7 percent; the Green Party’s Jill Stein, 2. (The day after the Republican National Convention, RABA had Clinton and Trump at 39 and 34, respectively.)"

. He could literally go on record as saying slavery was great for African Americans and he'd still get a ton of votes.
Well, the people who agree with that statement are already voting for him, so it probably wouldn't change a whole lot...
People have been asking that question for weeks.
The sad truth is that no matter what he says or does, Donald Trump will always be able to get people to vote for him because he's not Hilary. He could literally go on record as saying slavery was great for African Americans and he'd still get a ton of votes.
