Is it time to start polling our nominees against Pence?

I know our people beat Trump by various amounts. But what are the chances he’ll still be president then? Maybe we should prepare to adjust fire toward Pence?

Especially where Trump is concerned. People don't want to admit they will vote for that monster, but when they get in the booth they do and they did the last time.

2016 should have disabused us all of the foolish notion that the predictive value. Polls are riddled with extraneous variables which can do more harm than good. Some of which do not become clear until after the actual results are measured and reported.
