Daily Tracking polls are the worst (Remember Gallup and Rasmussen)
Beware of tracking polls. In 2012, the only pollsters to predict a Romney Victory were Gallup and Rasmussen, both daily tracking polls.
Now we have that new, weird and untested LA times tracking poll which seems headed in that direction too.
Stick with accurate pollsters such as the Washington Post and NBC.

Hillary ahead by 5 even including Johnson and Stein (PPP)
Unlike the confused and erratic Reuters, PPP finds Hillary ahead of Donald Trump by 5% even with the minor candidates in the mix http://www.publicpolicypolling.com/pdf/2015/PPP_Release_National_7302016.pdf
