“And Clinton’s lead among likely voters — 13 points — is actually slightly wider than her 12-point advantage among all registered voters. In recent elections, likely voter screens have typically produced better results for Republican candidates than polls of all registered voters.”

“Likely Voter” is determined by past voting history. However, that metric is useless in 2016 as lots of people who have never voted will vote in this election for Trump.

We all sound like dopes complaining about the polls, except when they deserve to be whined about. It’s against the laws of physics that Clinton could be up 13% with likely voters. When usually 50 people go to the Detroit Economic Club speeches but now 2000 show up? Clinton does a city with a 150 people and Trump does the same city the next day and gets 10,000 ? When the democrat media GOPe complex is announcing a new candidate everyday? When the ads are 98-1 but the LA Times says its tied? No effin chance....
