The Reuters/Ipsos polling team announced Friday that they are dropping the “Neither” option from their presidential preference polls after their tracking polls showed a 17-point swing in favor of the Republican nominee Donald J. Trump, exposing the “Secret Trump Voters” Democrats fear. “In a presidential campaign notable for its negativity, the option of ‘Neither’ candidate appears to be an appealing alternative, at least to participants in the Reuters/Ipsos opinion poll,” wrote Maurice Tamman, the leader of the Reuters news service’s New York City-based data mining and investigative reporting team. “Many voters on both sides have been ambivalent in their support for Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton and Republican nominee Donald Trump, complicating the task of the pollsters trying to track the race.”

Breitbart News noted the 17-point swing for Trump, which seems to have set off alarm bells at Reuters.

KEYWORDS: polls
There will be no more Trump leads in Reuters. Can't have the truth to get out. Just get rid of whatever data was causing him to lead the wicked witch. By the way this is poll now being used by RCP to show the race tied. Nothing to see here. Move along.

Hmm. Seems like an arm of the Ministry of Propaganda. The same bureaucrats who are dictating the “study” of “Climate Change” and the need to implement “social justice” for sexual perverts in public restrooms.

So what is so shocking about Ratters doing this. Just what would be
expected of them. As if they would be more honest than a US source?

Will they have an “undecided” category? Most polling has this and it seems those who used to say they would vote for neither will now say they are undecided.

I have always believe3d this poll to be skewed anyway so don’t believe it is any big deal. Plus folks pretty much know now their is a bias in the polling favorable to the left.

Polls are not a reflection of the sentiment of the population, just a msm variant of shaping the mindset of the LIV. Duh, hildabutchbitch is winning, it must be good.

If anyone let's their mind get clouded over polls, it's their own fault.

Dukakis had a big lead in the polls in August. Carter was tied with Reagan right up to the election.

Reuters only exists to be a propaganda mouthpiece for progressivism. 0 credibility in my book.

One can design a poll to achieve the outcome that is desired. Same thing goes for a study. We have to take them all with a grain of salt in my opinion.

Polls and so-called ‘fact checkers’ have become politically corrupt and can’t be given any credence. Getting accurate information is getting more difficult than before the invention of the printing press. The age of high information has become saturated by propaganda.

Clearly, the libs cannot digest the truth. But I can’t fathom why bookmakers’ betting odds still favor Clinton.
