(56,829 posts)2. I remember the LA Times daily poll from 2016
the day before the Comey letter was leaked by Chaffetz, Hillary had finally broken 50% for the first time, and was up 51-38 in their tracking poll.
The day after the letter, it was like 44-43 for Trump, a 14 point swing in ONE DAY!
HRC recovered and took a small overall lead, but the damage was done and the late deciders broke heavily for trump because of the letter.

I always thought of the USC poll as being heavily skewed toward the current WH Occupant. Shows just how catastrophic the Comey interference was!

But I've seen the dems large poll margins wiped out just prior to voting...Hillary..Sam brownbutt, ..
Imho, there is a problem with voting software being manipulated by rightwinger election officials...
