Gravis Marketing (Florida): Clinton 46, Trump 42

[Charles Bukowski]

According to 538, this pollster has a 2 point Republican bias:

You know it's bad when Breitbart's favorite pollster has Trump losing bigly in Florida.

1. Now that's what I like to see! Great news!

2. This same poll has Rubio up by 6 points

Florida is one of those odd states.

A good number of voters will pull the lever for Hillary for President, but then vote Republican the rest of the ticket.

The state, according to this poll, is voting in favor of gridlock.

4. In the 2012 election, we had extensive DU coverage of the fact that Gravis wasn't to be trusted:

Doesn't mean this poll doesn't reflect some sort of reality, but beware!

5. It had a noted rightwing bias

Which makes HRC's 4 point lead all the more impressive.

6. It would be impressive.

It may well be, whatever Gravis claims.

But the strong suspicion (explored over a number of threads in a lot of detail if you follow the link above) was that Gravis made up its polling out of thin air.

We had a concensus on that when it was polling unfavorably for Obama, so unless it's had a change of methodology (or even started running some real polls), it's a bit contrary to get excited when it tells us something we want to hear about how Clinton's doing.

7. BIGLY IMPRESSED! GOTV, EVERYWHERE!

Let's make them remember 2016 as the year America called them on their hate once and for ALL!
