It isn't even six points, they are actually tied. This election will be the same as others over the last 20 years -- Trump is going to get 90% of the Republican vote, and Hillary 90% of the Dem vote, and turnout and independents will decide the election. Thankfully Hillary has a MUCH better ground game, but I'm concerned that independents are going to go for the "change" candidate, even though he is an idiot, racist, misogynist, etc.
