https://www.democraticunderground.com/12512517372new CPS poll, Clinton +9/+11 on Cheeto Jesus (live telephone, +5 vs two weeks ago)
http://www.cbsnews.com/news/cbs-poll-clintons-lead-over-trump-widens-with-three-weeks-to-go/
Following the second presidential debate and controversies surrounding both campaigns, Hillary Clintons lead over Donald Trump has expanded to nine points now nationally. Forty-seven percent of likely voters support or lean towards Clinton, while 38 percent support Trump. Libertarian candidate Gary Johnson gets 8 percent of likely voters, while Green Party candidate Jill Stein receives 3 percent of the vote. Two weeks ago, Clintons lead was four points.
In a two-way match-up where third party candidates are not named explicitly, Clinton leads Trump 51 percent to 40 percent among likely voters, including leaners

and convince one or two non-voters to vote Biden. That would create an epic landslide.

(13,991 posts)4. Again, this is 2020 not 2016.
Totally different circumstances. Trump is going to lose badly.

(9,670 posts)5. Painful shared memories that have created a Blue Wave in 2018 and 2020
More and more Americans see what's at stake on election day. They understand the existential threat to our country. Trump's base never expanded over his tenure. He's shedding voters faster than the coronavirus he carries.
These types of posts only embolden us.
