Justin Holcomb |Posted: 9:30 AM Share (25) Tweet Big League: Trump Leads for the Second Straight Day in New Poll, Nearly 50% Donald Trump has maintained a national lead over Hillary Clinton for the second straight day in a new Rasmussen poll that showed him trailing by seven on Monday. He now leads her 43 percent to 41 percent.
And one of the more important statistics from this poll is that 87 percent now say they are certain how they will vote in this year’s presidential election, and among those voters, Trump leads 48 percent to Clinton's 46 percent.
Trump also earns 77 percent of the GOP's support, while Clinton carries 76 percent of her own party.

Republicans are becoming more and more likely to side with Donald Trump in November rather than the Washington establishment.
Voters ignoring the phony bimbo eruptions.
Averaging the polling like RCP does is no longer valid due to intentional manipulation of large gap polls distorting the average.
Better to just weigh the different polls in your mind and look for trends.
The polls are all over the place. Who knows what the true numbers are?
How can this be? Fox has him down by 7 and sinking!
Rasmussen still shows Trump leading; Dornsife is tied with a one-point lead for Hillary.
Also ahead in PPD poll for first time since sex talk tape. He is up by .6 with him moving up and her down. Of course the thought of her going down makes us happy in one sense, but in another sense it makes me want to puke.
I think the democrats are trying to start a fire in a scorched over area. It doesn’t work.
Trump responds though. Some get after him for responding, but I agree with him.
GWBush went the ‘no response’ route and it killed his presidency and the next 2 election cycles.
Still two points ahead, despite the worst week (news-media wise) in his campaign history.
Unless these polls converge by Election Day, some are going to be quite off. Normally, these polling firms will submit to reality once we are upon Election Day. But I wouldn’t be surprised to see some of them claim a form Hillary lead when in fact Trump is leading.
In Fox, Hillary lost FOUR points from the previous poll.
That’s not a sign of a surging candidate.
And that poll was overloaded with Democrats D +7.
Today’s PPD Trump retakes lead 41.5 to her 40.9
Fox is oversampled D+9
No legitimate poll will want to ruin its credibility over one election. Watch for the rogue, rigged polls to show Trump “strengthening” as election day nears to cover themselves after they feel they have accomplished their goal to help Hillary as much as possible.
form => firm
Some good news and some encouraging trend lines. Once last weekend falls off the polls, Trump will get a natural bounce and shift the narrative to coming back.
Hopefully, this debate Turns into a seminar for the American public about Juanita, Lolita Island, and the Clintons hatred for Catholics, blacks, and Latinos. Maybe we’ll get some bombshells from Wiki and/or Anonymous too.
TTTT!
Everyone email or tweet FOX News about their BS Poll where they have a D+9 sample when Obama is NOT even in this race!!!!!!! LOL
LET’s ROLL
GO TRUMP
I think that this election might be similar to the 1980 election when a large late-minute shift in the electorate propelled Reagan to a solid victory in what had been a close race to that point. I think that a lot of people in 1980 were carefully watching and evaluating Reagan and when it became clear to them that he wasn't the wild-eyed nutcase that the press was trying to portray him as, they jumped on the ship. I think that a similar dynamic is happening this year.
