The Drudge Report online vote had 80 percent of respondents giving the victory to Trump, and a Time.com survey had the Republican nominee leading Clinton by 4 percentage points – 52 percent to 48 percent – after more than 1,300,000 votes were cast. CNBC and Breitbart votes also had Trump winning the event, at New York’s Hofstra University.

A Fox News online vote had Trump winning with 50 percent of respondents, Clinton at 35 percent and the other 15 percent declaring no one won.
I hate that either team is pretending that online polls mean anything.
I waded into r/the_donald this morning, and the top 5 links were all about these polls.

This is perfect. A TV review of last nights debate:

"I’m quite enjoying the final season of “America” (The US Presidential Debate, Monday, BBC News). This week’s episode was excellent and I think we’re in for an exciting finale. And then humanity will leave the stage and it will be the insects’ turn to be this planet’s dominant species. I think you’ll agree: we’ve had a good run."

Isn't that so weird? Primary candidates were so long ago. I barely remember any of them. They feel like blips, but I spent hours and hours and weeks and months thinking about them.
Please consider voting for me
