Another day and another manufactured ABC / Wapo poll to review. In today’s goal-seeking report, which supposedly includes 2 days of post-FBI responses, Hillary maintained a 1-point advantage over Trump despite ABC/Wapo’s admission that her favorability ratings are tanking, support among democrats is declining and voter intesity overall continues to collapse (which is supposedly what drove her massive drop from a 12-point lead in the first place). In part, Hillary’s lead was maintained through another 1 point increase in the democrat – republican sampling spread which increased to 10 points (vs. 9 yesterday and 8 the day before) but we suspect other over “oversamples” of certain groups was also required to engineer this latest farce.
METHODOLOGY – This ABC News/Washington Post poll was conducted by landline and cellular telephone Oct. 26-29, 2016, in English and Spanish, among a random national sample of 1,165 likely voters. Results have a margin of sampling error of 3 points, including the design effect. Partisan divisions are 37-27-30 percent, Democrats-Republicans-independents.
