I don't care if it's Aunt Betty's survey, those who control polling are deliberately framing questions in a way to ensure results they seek. Hillary lost 20 states to Bernie. She is not a strong candidate, she is propped up.

I am amazed ANYONE supports Hillary. There are a few. Few as in three. Of my group of friends, two support her vehemently which for the life of me is contrary to these peoples ideology, but they supported Bernie, when he was assed out they STILL support her and believe everything the media tells them. To which I am still surprised they support her.
The Polls are fucked up. But Im also not believing Rocky Raccoon on who will win the presidency with so much bullshit going on in the background. The Electoral College is going Hillary. They are all long time politicians, they are going to support their own kind. Without the full support of the GOP I am afraid for Trump to be cheated.

'LOS ANGELES — Despite a majority of opinion polls showing the 2016 presidential election going to Democrat Hillary Clinton, a smartphone app developer says his data suggests challenger Donald Trump will be the victor.“Based on the stats we see, he looks strong,” says Ric Militi, co-founder of San Diego-based Crazy Raccoons, maker of the Zip question and answer app. '
'We’re a conversation, and 100% anonymous,” Militi says. “People feel comfortable answering questions without fear of being bullied or being called a racist. '
