1. I like the numbers, but polls mean nothing until labor Day

3. Hillary had a bad week and Trump drowned it out with

-the violence at his events
-disrespecting the Mexican judge
-his fight with Elizabeth Warren
-his fight with Susanna Martinez

He isn't half as smart as his supporters think he is.

32. Yeah, he's playing it so dumb that it makes you wonder what is real goal is, doesn't it?

[Skwmom]

41. This isn't the first time this has occurred.

[BlueNoMatterWho]

2. Dates that the poll was conducted?

[DemocratSinceBirth]

5. It's at the link- 5/26 through 5/30.

[BlueNoMatterWho]

8. Thank you

Where in the link? Also, when you click on "all results" it says Clinton 38-33%. Weird...

[DemocratSinceBirth]

10. Put the cursor on Hillary and drag it...

it's just a data point but a fun one.

[DCBob]

4. I guess that IG report isnt having the impact the Berners were hoping for.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

6. Please see Post #3

[YouDig]

7. I noticed the Berner's haven't been talking about Trump-Hillary polls the last few days.

I think I just figured out the explanation. Thanks!

9. Yes they have. They think the race is dead even. See inside.

11. They want Hillary to lose because she beat their guy... This isn't nuclear physics.

[LonePirate]

14. I agree. It's sour grapes by them and I say that as a Bernie voter back in March.

Hopefully they will accept HRC as the nominee as I have and will help her defeat Trump in November. Any other option is a losing proposition for America.

[BlueNoMatterWho]

17. Dead even in New Jersey. WTF?

[LonePirate]

23. The race is not dead even in NJ. A new poll today gave her a 21 pt lead in NY. No way NJ is tied.

38. Clinton 38-34 in NJ Monmouth Poll

[LonePirate]

40. There is no way that NJ poll and the NY poll from today are both close to reality.

One is obviously wrong. Which one do you think that is?

[BlueNoMatterWho]

42. I'm hoping the NY poll is correct. I can't see a Republican winning New Jersey.

[onehandle]

12. National polls do not count unless they make Hillary look bad.

What do you think this is?

DEMOCRATIC Underground!?

[sheshe2]

19. They count when they are internet polls. nt

[Mr Maru]

13. Ploink!

The sound of another useless, reality-challenged #BernieMath talking point sinking into oblivion.

[Ash_F]

15. What was the last reuters poll?

Polls vary because outfits vary in methodology.

What is more useful is if we can look at reuters and see where the trend is going. Assuming they have been keeping the same methodology.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

16. There are trend lines in the link.

[Ash_F]

18. Oh ok I thought that was the same poll

That is a daily poll though? I guess they took a 5 day avg.

Is there one for previous months?

[DemocratSinceBirth]

20. it goes back to 4/1

[BlueNoMatterWho]

25. Damn

Might want to change the thread title.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

27. If you look she is where she was then, up the hill, down the hill, back up the hill.

[Ash_F]

26. Looks like it goes back to at least Jan

Does this load for you?

[DemocratSinceBirth]

28. A lot of peaks and valleys but it seems she is where she started.

Some of that might be noise...

[Ash_F]

31. I will be keeping an eye on this poll going forward.

Thanks for sharing.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

33. It really isn't the greatest poll but it's fun because it's interactive. *

I just saw it cited elsewhere and posted it as a morale booster.

Have a nice day.





* That's not to mean it's worthless. It's just another data point.

[Ash_F]

34. 1.1k respondents a day is not bad

[DemocratSinceBirth]

35. Because it's an online sample...

Imagine the cost of actually reaching 1,000 qualified respondents per day via land line and cell phone.

[BlueNoMatterWho]

21. This is great news. Reuters last week was the one poll that showed a significant lead last week too!

[sheshe2]

22. I Feel Good.

Thanks DSB.

[MoonRiver]

24. Awesome! After today those numbers will get even better.

Rump is exposing his vileness on practically an hourly basis.

[riversedge]

29. Sanders is losing his post nominee annoucement bump.

[Beacool]

30. Damn, there goes Sanders remaining strategy.

Now the super delegates will not switch to him.

[BooScout]

36. BOOM!

Whooops, there it is!

[seabeyond]

37. Clinton is gonna kick his ass, just like she did with Sanders. Nt.

[EricMaundry]

39. If the polls continue to show Trump in a state of collapse

... it could mean the GOP is getting ready to dump him at their convention.

Bad polling will give them a media friendly rationale for doing that.
