Clinton expands lead in daily tracking poll

Posted by | November 6, 2016 07:21 | Filed under: Politics


The ABC/Washington Post daily tracking poll has it a 48-43 race.

The results in this poll, produced for ABC by Langer Research Associates, rest to some extent on the one-third of likely voters who say they’ve already voted. They go Clinton by 51-43 percent, leaving it closer among the two-thirds yet to vote when these interviews were completed.

Even though both candidates are remarkably unpopular, there’s more affirmative voting for Clinton than for Trump, a factor that can motivate turnout. A majority of her supporters mainly support her, rather than opposing Trump. That’s pretty much reversed for Trump: 51 percent of his backers mainly oppose Clinton, rather than supporting him.

Third-party candidates Gary Johnson and Jill Stein have 4 percent and 2 percent support, respectively, with no clear indication that they disproportionately take votes from either candidate.

    I’m surprised the percentage of early voters is that high. Now when will they move election day to a Sunday, to give more people a chance to vote?

      But even if I had such severe issues with Hillary that I couldn’t convince myself to vote for her, that doesn’t get me withing miles of voting for Trump. I would rather abstain completely. So the ones who are voting for Trump as a way to vote against Hillary are still VOTING FOR TRUMP. I hope they can live with that.

    well, I had no choice. I had to vote for Hillary because our kids were threatening to send letters of FU to Trump – I kinda figure they’ve gotten too too many from me already, thought I’d beat them to the polls (did too!)

    and – my wife was complaining so much about trump, I just had to vote for Hillary. Hope everybody else does too!
