******BATTLEGROUND PENNSYLVANIA POLL****** CLINTON 49% MR. TANGERINE MAN 38%

The October 2016 Franklin & Marshall College Poll of Pennsylvania shows that Hillary
Clinton leads Donald Trump 49% to 38% among likely voters. More voters continue to believe
Secretary Clinton rather than Mr. Trump has the experience to be president, is better prepared to
handle foreign policy issues, and has the character and judgment to be president. Voters are
evenly divided on which candidate has the ability to fix the country’s economic problems and
which candidate is most honest and trustworthy. Secretary Clinton’s favorable ratings have
remained mostly stable in the past month (46% favorable), as have Mr. Trump’s (35%
favorable)

F&M is the absolute gold standard of Pennsylvania polling. Read through the entire polling pdf, there's tons of good info in there including McGinty's 10 pt lead over Toomey.

Terry Madonna and company know this state inside and out and have been polling it for years. I don't really know what 538's logic is, but I trust the F&M PA poll over anything other organization who also polls the state.

Just want to let other posters who might not know that this is the most reliable pollster in/of Pennsylvania.

What will happen if this isn't resolved on election day? PA doesn't have early voting.
