PPP has Hillary up 5 points, Nationally

On June 30, the same poll had Clinton at plus 4. So, after both conventions, Hillary has picked up a point so far.

In addition, the inside story is that of the undecided, they prefer Barak Obama over Trump by nearly 49% points. Many are former Sanders' supporters.


Although they don't like Hillary, yet, there is no where for these voters to go except to Clinton, if they move.

<snip> It's also important to note that most of the remaining undecided pool is very Democratic leaning. They give Barack Obama a 55/33 approval rating, and they'd rather have him as President than Trump by a 59/10 spread. If they ended up voting for Clinton and Trump by those proportions, it would push Clinton's lead up from 5 points to 8. But they don't like Clinton (a 4/83 favorability) or Trump (a 2/89 favorability). A lot of these folks are disaffected Bernie Sanders voters, and even after the successful convention this week they're still not sold on Clinton yet. She and her surrogates will have to keep working to try to win those folks over and if they can the election enters landslide territory. <snip>

That's what is important.

While national polls are nice for showing trends, is the state by state details that matter. Ask Al Gore.

For the electoral vote to be close the popular vote also has to be really close. 5 points will result in a electoral vote landslide 99.99999999999999999999% of the time.

Just one day after the convention and is concluded on Saturday is a reliable indicator to conclude the the conventions canceled each other out. Might still be true though,but it is still unlikely that whatever bounce Clinton got could be fully factored into that poll.

but it's a positive trend and has some real good inside explanations of the undecided which show positive for growth in Hillary's numbers.
