and found Clinton leading Trump by 4.1 percentage points in Pennsylvania , 4.1 points in Wisconsin , 2.4 points in Michigan , 2.3 points in North Carolina and 2.2 points in Florida .
Larry Sabato, director of the University of Virginia's Center for Politics, told USA TODAY that the numbers show Trump"is in a polling slump and he's in a bad position for reelection as the incumbent," but they aren't"even vaguely predictive." "We make the same mistake every four years," said Sabato."Not that this poll was wrong, I think it was basically a reflection of what is true today. But the election – I used to say it is Nov. 3, but actually, it starts in September with early voting – but it's still in the fall. We have a whole season and a half to go."
Sabato was optimistic that pollsters have learned from their mistakes four years ago. He was encouraged that they are giving greater weight to respondents' education level – a key demographic factor in 2016 that he said was largely overlooked – and conducting more polls in states that might have previously been assumed to lean Democratic or Republican.
"What really gives me more confidence is that nobody wants to be wrong again on the big one," Sabato said."Everybody got hit over the head with a two-by-four , and generally, that makes you never want to get hit over the head with a two-by-four again."
Landslide because fake news and polls are still fake news
Let’s keep it going - vote blue!
Seems they said all this against Clinton and look what happened.
Not a chance KeepAmericaGreat
I have to laugh. Before deadbeat donald goes to NJ to play golf all weekend, he has his intelligence briefing in the morning. I guess Sponge Bob will be in the White House to give deadbeatdonald his briefing.
But it will be OK, he is going to play golf all weekend and tell himself that the trump virus was really President Obama's fault.

If the Democratic Party or Republican Party were really sincere about the well being, equal justice, and equal opportunities for African Americans, they would have enacted reparation laws for African Americans years ago. Actions are much better than useless words.
Why would anyone vote for a man who stated there have been 120 million Chinese virus deaths already!
I hope so, this man has gone Cuckoo. He doesn’t make any sense anymore in anything. It’s scary. We are scared over here, because the Republican Governors are still listening to this man and everything is going bad. I’m not exaggerating. We need help with this Virus.🙏
Trumpster should be able to barely edge out another four more years
Gee...its like I heard all this before....
No kidding. If half of the states break for Biden Trump would have trouble winning? What kind of stupid article is that?
Don’t make that 2016 mistake again ... you know trusting polls , buying fireworks, making magazine covers ... right HillaryClinton ?
When Trump wins again, you will be crying again. and blaming Russia.
