Donald Trump is gaining on Hillary Clinton, according to voters in an NBC News/ SurveyMonkey poll.
In the online poll of 12,969 registered voters conducted May 23 to 29:
•47 percent of the poll’s voters would vote for Hillary Clinton. •45 percent of the poll’s voters would vote for Donald Trump. Since NBC News and SurveyMonkey's May 24 poll, Trump has gained two points while Clinton gained one point.
NBC News released the poll result in a tweet from The Today Show:

The fact that she’s +2 right now should be alarming to everyone. Remember she will get some points back once she wraps up nomination.
When she was up 20% just a while back....?
Trump ahead:
This should be alarming because he’s peaking too soon.
Trump slightly behind:
This should alarm everyone because she will get points once the primaries are over.
So the moral is to be alarmed 24/7 all the time?
I wonder if the third party folks will keep talking about it through Trump’s inauguration?
“Registered Voters”. NBC will not report “Likely voters” because she is losing. If she were winning with likely voters they would trumpet that fact because it is a more accurate poll.
Realpolitik 101: The more Hillary Clinton sinks in the polls, the greater the likelihood she will be indicted.
Alarmed, shocked, devastated. Oh Noes!
There has been a scarcity of national polls in the last couple of weeks or so and most of the ones released have been conducted using registered voters. Trump’s huge advantage, drawing new voters who are more likely to vote, is not being reflected.
I believe pollsters will do everything they can to manipulate their surveys by asking leading questions to make Trump look bad and cover up how badly Hillary is failing.
It is hard for me to wrap my mind around how anybody could actually vote for her . . . or not support a great leader in Mr. Trump!!
>>> So the moral is to be alarmed 24/7 all the time?
I think it’s a good idea to always fight as if we’re slightly behind.
Too many people are lulling themselves into a comfortable state of mind that this’ll somehow be a landslide victory in Nov. When there’s really nothing yet to indicate this.
Registered Voters. Because they failed to mention likely voters, means Trump is ahead.
I mean it’s online. It’s probably “adults,” not necessarily even registered voters.
Worth less than the network that ran it's credibility...........................
Monkey Poll???
Do not be alarmed.
She will lose more points as time goes on.
No, rather it is a reminder of the long road ahead.
Anyone who believes that the Benghazi Murderess is ahead of Trump anywhere is delusional. Absolutely no one I talk to will vote for Hitlery.
Gaining???
They also reported this morning on the”heavy rains caused by flooding” in Texas.
Stated preferences vs. Revealed preferences.
