CNN puts this out:


Polls are a lot of things. They're gauges by which campaigns can adjust their media and organizing strategies. They're invaluable fodder for the 24/7 news media to discuss during yearlong presidential campaigns. They're a way for math geeks to seem sexy every four years.

But one thing polls are often not — especially months out from an election — is correct.


and...


Decent human beings who love their country and humanity and fear for the disastrous consequences of a Donald Trump presidency are shaken up bya series of new polls that show Trump and Clinton neck and neck in a national matchup. A Washington Post-ABC poll shows Trump leading Clinton 46% to 44%. An NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll has Clinton leading Trump 46% to 43%. Both gaps are within the statistical margin of error, but still, the numbers are understandably disconcerting. That is, if you believe them.

Turns out now that Trump is doing well, the MSM wants us to doubt the polls. cool.:cool:

Poll Date Sample MoE Trump (R) Clinton (D) Spread
RCP Average 5/13 - 5/19 -- -- 43.4 43.2 Trump +0.2
ABC News/Wash Post 5/16 - 5/19 829 RV 3.5 46 44 Trump +2
NBC News/Wall St. Jrnl 5/15 - 5/19 1000 RV 3.1 43 46 Clinton +3
Rasmussen Reports 5/17 - 5/18 1000 LV 3.0 42 37 Trump +5
FOX News 5/14 - 5/17 1021 RV 3.0 45 42 Trump +3
CBS News/NY Times 5/13 - 5/17 1109 RV 3.0 41 47 Clinton +6

Hillary was well ahead of Trump by 8.5% in the last RCP average of polls in April but Trump is now leading Hillary by 0.2%. The ABC News/Wash Post poll may be the most accurate and unbiased, compared to FOX or NBC, which gives Trump a 2% edge over Hillary. America elected President Bush twice and I wouldn't be surprised, if we have Trump as the presumptive president-elect in November.
