Obama 55%
McCain 39%
Someone else 4%
Don’t recall/Refused 3%
Considering they meant Romney on that one, therein lies the validity problem. Obama won Virginia only by 3.9% in 2012.
Back in 2008 and 2012, neighborhoods were full of Obama yard signs. This year.. even in predominantly black Portsmouth, there’s not a single Hillary sign to be seen in any of the neighborhoods or thoroughfares in which I’ve driven.
Contrary to juiced polls and slanted pundit remarks, Virginia is very much in play. If Trump can replicate Bob McDonnell’s economics-above-all message (remember “Bob’s for Jobs?) to every single audience, he can win here.
This poll certainly is curious, and your mentioning the yard signs shows that the climate is nothing like 2012 with Obama, so why are they using the 2012 demographics? The dynamics are entirely different than 2012.
