"SNIP...........


Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump have both slipped in Florida, but she is 7 percentage points ahead of him in an NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll released Friday.

It's better news for Clinton than a Quinnipiac University Poll released on Wednesday, that had Trump ahead of Clinton 42 percent to 39 percent.

The NBC/Wall Street Journal poll, conducted by Marist College's Institute for Public Opinion, showed Clinton with support of 44 percent of registered Florida voters, compared to 37 percent for Trump.

Both surveys indicate a tight race; the margin of error in both polls is plus or minus 3 percentage points.

In the Miami-Dade area told me he'd be surprised beyond belief if tRump won Florida. He said he and friends have actually registered as many if not more people to vote during this election cycle than then did when he worked for then Sen. Obama's GOTV team. He said of course people have to go vote on November 8th, but he said he has a "good feeling" that Hillary will win Florida by at least 4-5 percentage points. I ask him about that crooked, Zorak-looking governor who'll probably try any and all tricks he can to disable the voting apparatus Dems have in place and possibly erase or knock off tons of eligible voters off the voting rolls, and he said on his end that he and his friends will be working as hard as they humanly can to make sure all who are registered to vote CAN and WILL be able to vote, but even beyond that hurdle, he STILL feels good about Florida going to Hillary even with "Crooked governor Zorak" as it's governor

So much for his huge lead in that Quinnipiac poll.

That is better than Obama in 2012 or 2008 at this point in the race
