[walterwilliamson]

Pay no attention to the polls really.Just vote.

[steven.]

For the race to be this close between a normal sane person and a unwell one makes me sad for the place I call home

[rollsroycenetwork]

If you remember 2016 you’ll vote regardless. Polls are what the media uses to keep you engaged when there’s nothing to talk about.

The fact that it’s still so close with Trump on the ballot highlights the mindset of many Americans. 😅

[David-crpt]

The fact that Americans still trust Trump on the economy, shows how much the American people don’t really pay attention.

Polls are ridiculous and discredited. "Push Polling" is illegal. Vote. Vote. Vote.

How is it unchanged? She was polling 2-3 points before and now she's up 6. Not like it matters because it's the battleground states that count. Also the excuses these fools keep making is annoying margin of error is 2 so no, it's not barely outside.

46 <> 52 is not within the margin of error

[jamesl]

They treat the presidential election in the United States like a sports contest

[bcbock]

So 6% is on a margin of +/- 2% is BARELY outside the margin to ABC?

“A candidate under indictment has no business running. Further, it would be virtually impossible for a president under indictment to govern.”

If you stand behind Trump, keep holding your breath.. you're in the blast zone.

Imagine all the fathers telling their young daughter's that they proudly voted a rapist, habitual liar, adulterer, and anti-abortionist back into office to show her the type of man she could be with when she gets older.

[mikeh]

Forgot the polls, do not count on polls, count on VOTES. Go VOTE

[johnforde]

Karl, "That is just barely outside the margin of error." MOE is 2%. It's TRIPLE the margin of error.

Reminder: The polls have underestimated dem turnout by 5-7 points in the last 3 election cycles. Remember the red wave that wasn't ?

[russell]

SIX POINTS ISN'T TIED, smh and usually the margin of error is 3-4 points!!!
