CNN says 62-27 for HRC


YouGov says 57-30.


Wonder the different methods they used for their sample.

More Democrat leaning people watched the debate. Democrats actually cared what would be said. Many Republicans simply do not care. CNN numbers, about 42% D and 27% R still give Hillary the win.

The deal is, the debate discouraged Republicans from answering polls. Because they knew their guy had lost.

Differential non-response bias.

So the fact that there are more Democrats in the sample is a MEASURE of Clinton's win.

I saw one on CNN that was in the FL focus group of undecideds that supported another candidate during the primaries. She responded that neither candidate addressed campaign finance reform. Never mind that the moderator never asked that question or anything even remotely close. She clearly had no idea what the questions were about.

The young lady seemed to be clueless. "Why didn't either candidate talk about what I wanted them to talk about which never came up? Why can't they read my mind? Don't they know that I am the only one who is important out her?"

His rock bottom base of support. Deplorable could have mooned everyone on stage and he would still "win" in their little world.
