Considering the demographic breakdowns, I would have expected that overall number to be bigger-- more in line with some of the other polls.

(27,570 posts)11. I think both these polls are outliers... More like Clinton +9 or so...
The demographics in all the polls though point to a landslide at the moment.

(58,785 posts)5. In what numbers will Latinos, especially, come out?
They haven't been voting in the numbers the AA blocs have. Will they turn out in larger than usual numbers to protect America from what Trump and his supporters represent?

(58,785 posts)7. Fantastic. That has to be a good indicator!
Some law changed not too long ago, and my Danish DIL will be able to have dual citizenship and will also be voting for the first time in November.

(11,605 posts)8. That's not that great
I don't expect Hillary to get Obama-level support among African Americans, but I thought she would at least break 90% given who her opposition is. 87% is less than Kerry got in 2004 (albeit, Bush got 11% compared to Trump's 5%).

And the POTUS hasn't even started campaigning for her yet.
