"Hillary Clinton is leading Donald Trump by nine percentage points in a new national CNN/ORC poll released today."


===================================
Thanks to ABC News for this report.

Imho, As more and more Americans start seeing the stark differences between Trump who has said such ignorant things about minorities and other people and who wants to build a wall, compared to Hillary Clinton who embraces wanting to build bridges instead, her poll numbers will undoubtedly continue to climb!

The Billary Bounce !

Probably directly related to the Muslim gold star family.

RCP average is Clinton +3.9

Clinton doesn't even have to speak between now and election day. As long as Trump keeps speaking and tweeting and she stays quiet her numbers will rise.

Candidates typically receive a rather sizable post-convention bounce. As the article itself indicates, Hillary Clinton's bounce was 7 percentage points--most of the 9 percentage points by which she leads, according to this poll.

In fact, a CNN/ORC poll has her leading by exactly 7 points, post-convention.

Of course, Donald Trump also received a bounce, just after the Republican Convention.

Things will soon enough settle down, and return to normal.

In any case, it is the electoral vote--not the popular vote--that elects presidents in the US. (If this were not the case, we would have been saying "President Gore," starting in January of 2001.)

And now the original report title has changed to: "Hillary Clinton Opens 9-Point Lead on Trump in New National Poll, Gains Among Independents, Sanders Supporters"

http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/hillary-clinton-opens-point-lead-trump-national-poll/story?id=41053374

"She's consolidated support among women, non-whites and independents since the Democratic convention, according to the poll. Clinton now garners 50 percent of independent voters -- up 13 percentage points since last weekend. She also holds more commanding leads among women and non-whites."

"But Clinton has consolidated her support among primary voters who backed Bernie Sanders as well. Before the convention, Clinton garnered only 78 percent of Sanders supporters last weekend, with 12 percent going to Trump, 6 percent voting for neither and 4 percent voting for a third party candidate."

"But now, 91 percent of Sanders backers say they will vote for Clinton and 6 for Trump, who has predicted that the Vermont lawmaker's supporters will come to his side."

Those are most important groups that are now going to Hillary! The post convention boost she got no doubt also helped to open the eyes of those groups in that Trump is not presidential material. And the Khan problem that embroils Trump with continuing controversy is also helping Clinton!

Maybe. The next Wikileaks dump will include emails that show she lied before Congress regarding the transfer of weapons from Libya to ISIL and other Jihadists in Syria. If Trump can keep his trap shut his numbers will rise.

Well when you have a mouth as big as Trump's that an 18-wheeler could drive through, she doesn't have to do much talking by comparison. He sure contributes to getting her the votes she needs! http://www.kolobok.us/smiles/big_standart/biggrin.gif

You know, that whole Wikileaks thing just can't be regarded as being completely correct anymore. With people up there in Russia not liking Clinton anything can happen to those emails that can most certainly be changed or altered to make Hillary appear bad. Therefore, they all need to be discounted at this point as the place they are at and were hacked from just can't be considered to be trustworthy.

As far as the DNC hack and possibly the Clinton campaign hack all they'd have to do is produce their emails to refute any sort of forgery or changes.

Notice the DNC refuted nothing just attempted to make it about Trump.

If Hillary is doing so well, how come no one showed up for the Clinton/Kaine bus tour stops?

People, (smart people?) realize that someone who is as accessible as Trump will occasionally, or even frequently, say regrettable things. Crooked Hillary is 100% scripted. She is a phony. Of course you like her. She is your kind of phony.

i really didn't think it was possible for the republicans to come up with a candidate worse than hillary.

donald vladimirovich trump shattered that illusion

All this is mere partisan hackery.

I much prefer to get my political viewpoints from serious analysts: e.g. Larry Sabato; Charlie Cook; Stu Rasmussen; Nate Silver, etc.:
