L.A. Times Poll: Donald Trump Edges Ahead of Hillary Clinton
breitbart.com ^ | 15 Jul 2016

Posted on 07/16/2016 4:17:16 AM PDT by Helicondelta

A five-day tracking poll backed by the Los Angeles Times shows Donald Trump leading Hillary Clinton, 43 percent to 40 percent.

The California newspaper hid the actual poll numbers in the eighth paragraph, including the news that Trump has the support of at least 30 percent of Hispanics.

...

Also, the poll shows Clinton with support from only 51 percent of Hispanics, and Trump with 30 percent support. That leaves 19 percent uncommitted, which suggests that Trump’s Hispanic ballot-box support may be significantly higher than 30 percent.

In 2012, GOP candidate Mitt Romney scored only 27 percent of the Latino vote, while President Barack Obama got 71 percent.

Reuters is a hard left British propaganda group that loves Islamic terrorism and our Dem socialist .

Reuters was peddling only push polls for the REMAIN side for weeks during the British EU vote non stop .
All wrong by the way .

The lefties running Reuters gave no explanation why their polls were DEAD wrong !

Reuters just lies .

WSJ is the Pravda of the globalists. They’re never happy until they get their crony capitalist Chamber of Commerce stooges in power. Why they hate Mr. Trump so much. He ain’t playing their game.

Clinton’s Reuters Rooters have her up by 12 but I’m not seeing it on the net. The snowflakes seem very touchy and easily go on the attack if you say anything about their Clinton. I think they see their Socialist utopia drifting away. Americans have had it.

Progressives love their ideology but Hillary is very unlovable, even by leftys. She’s a crony capitalist shrew.

“She’ll likely pick Julian Castro as VP to pander to Hispanics and homosexuals but I doubt that it will work.”

those are my thoughts too.

RCP is run by the Never Trump zealots .

That could be true. I have to admit that the ownship is a bit suspect.

But the conspiracy to keep Hillary ahead in the polls has to reach well past RCP since they are not actually doing the polling. I think it is just a gut response of the polling outfits, nearly all of which lean well to the left, to keep Hillary in the lead. It is not very hard to over-select Dems to get the polling results you are after.

But as we get near to November reputation preserving honesty will creep in and, I believe, the polls become a bit more accurate. We will see if that works out this year.

The “good” news is Obama was ahead of Romney at this point and won so polling now does say some of what may happen in November. By the way, no Obama, no trump. We’d be pushing romney’s butt to another win right now. Depressing!

Gotta love the lib press. When Trump leads, he “edges.” If Clinton had the same lead, she would be “roaring by” Trump.

The very idea of Trump beating HRC in CA is so far beyond unthinkable; but if he does we could be looking at a 48-state sweep and an electoral college blowout of historic proportions.

I’m telling ya, HRC’s cred with this email thing has been obliterated. Smashed to bits. Particularly with the surrounding events of the BJC+LL tarmac meetup and the immediate commencement of 0bama campaigning with HRC. And there’s nobody who didn’t see it and there’s nobody alive who does not know at some level that there has never been a more blatant example of shameless lying and corrupt insiderism. Ever. You vote for HRC, you know you’re being lied to. It’s a perfect certainty. Even if you think she’s the greatest ever and really deserves the office because of the tremendous sacrifices she’s made.

She’ll likely pick Julian Castro...

I believe so too. But I'd like to see her make the mistake of picking Warren as Warren is a turn off to most people. She is obviously a bit deranged (and shows it) when she gets so mad/upset when speaking.

The left is caught in its usual self-destructing bind. It’s only a matter of time before they implode as usual.

We have no problem rallying around Trump. We will show up on election day. They can’t rally around anyone, because there will always be a problem. Bernie was a man. Hillary is white. Until they get a transracial, transgender, transsexual, atheist, transablist, etc., they will always feel that someone will be oppressed, and make that figurehead invalid. They’ll end up staying home, voting for Stein, or writing in some other Marxist hero.

Barry Hussein was okay in 2008, but he’d be wayyyy too conventional for 2016.

>> If it is close, fear the walking (voting) dead.

Which is something the grass roots must guard against. This is the type of thing we should all be preparing for.

Of course they do. That's why they are becoming so violent. They are like cornered animals in their desperation.

The numbers are starting to look bad for the Dem’s relatively early in the game. Shrillary’s chances of stealing the election by fraud are quickly fading.

Second time, in the past few days that DJT’s domination of the news cycle, has been thwarted.
