*****BREAKING NEWS***** Poll Clinton 46 Herr Trump 42










A new University of Delaware Center for Political Communication survey finds that 46% of registered
voters would vote for Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton and 42% would vote for Republican
candidate Donald Trump, if the presidential election were being held today. The nationally
representative telephone survey, conducted on July 21-24, 2016, interviewed 1,000 adult U.S.
respondents by landline and cell phone, including 818 registered voters.

that Oswald acted alone, but that's a different argument.

As to this poll, it is awfully early in the game and if we want to put a sane person in the White House to replace the equally sane Barack Obama, then we're gonna have to pull together and work really hard, taking nothing for granted. Not one vote for granted.

But, hey, we've got the chance to follow up from putting the first African American in the White House to putting the first woman in the White House. How cool is that? Particularly since Clinton is proven to be smart and very well versed in policy.

Unlike a certain orange guy who is doing nothing but ginning up hatred and fear.

Not all registered voters show up at the polls, and likely means they are enthusiastic and will turn out to vote.
