Clinton should retake the lead tomorrow as she has up 46-45 in the last 7 days. Another good note is that Romney and Kerry were both up one 1 week out in this same poll.

If you say you are voting for Clinton, but aren't enthused then you aren't a likely voter

I am voting for Hillary but am not enthused about it. There are a lot of things I want to see happen within the party after Hillary wins. A pollster listening to me might not consider me a likely voter based on that dissatisfaction but as long as I have a pulse next Tuesday I will be voting to stop Trump, no matter what.

The polls are shit, do your part and don't panic.

level for two semesters in tests and measurements. Often these endless polls we see are just a bunch of manipulative BS.
