Her slide started before the Comey letter on Friday.tragabigzanda wrote:Just looking at 538, what the hell happened to OH and AZ? OH had flipped for Clinton, and AZ was basically a toss up, but they are both polling for Trump now. Is the email thing really that compelling for people?
Trump being relatively quiet for a few days has apparently given Republicans and independents all the cover they need to vote for him in spite of everything.

Re: Election 2016

He does seem to be picking up Johnson/undecided voters while Hillary remains basically stagnant, yes.Monkey_Driven wrote:Isn't trump polling a little bit better because Johnson's numbers are way down?

He wasn't ever that high nationwide. 538 had him as high as 9% with their weighted averages, but yeah he has been hemoraging support the last couple of weeks.tragabigzanda wrote:Yea, I think this is significant. Johnson was polling like 15% of the popular vote six weeks ago; he's at 4.7% now.Monkey_Driven wrote:Isn't trump polling a little bit better because Johnson's numbers are way down?
