(2,348 posts)4. I don't think that's accurate, but Trump is losing everywhere, for sure.

(25,451 posts)5. Those seem a tad optimistic.
Especially Florida and PA.
PPP has PA at +4 Clinton from a poll held last week.
CBS has FL at +3 Clinton.
Not that I won't take the higher numbers, of course. I just think they might be a little out of whack. On the other hand, we can hope that they're indicative of the trend.

(68,868 posts)8. that's why the most sensible approach is to average them out.
average these out with Quinnipiac's polls, average the ABC and NBC polls, etc.

(25,451 posts)9. Agreed.
Trends and averages are usually a better indicator.
