It's simple really. One side is outright lying to its voting base in regards to how popular their candidate is. But as I have written elsewhere, only Trump shows evidence of any enthusiastic voters on his side of things. People are voting for Hillary because she is the Dem Party candidate and not because they actually like her. So the enthusiasm is all on the Right and yet most of the left generated polling is saying that Trump is massively behind in polling numbers? Somebody, some group, is lying to the people . . . big time, and I don't think that it's the Right.

Trump Not Polling Well in PA? Think Again: In Democratic Country He’s Thumping Hillary and It’s Simply Ugly
Posted on August 28, 2016

Two weeks ago True Pundit reported Hillary Clinton and her major PACs were pulling their ads in Pennsylvania because internal polling showed Donald Trump surging in the state.

Clinton’s campaign and Trump critics quickly countered that she was so far out front in the battleground state of Pennsylvania that they didn’t need to spend further resources in the Keystone State. Sounded plausible but since when does Hillary Clinton or her campaign tell the truth?

Now comes polling in Luzerne County, a key Pennsylvania county which voted for President Obama last round by 5% over Mitt Romney. According to summer polling by Axiom Strategies, Trump is thumping Clinton by 23 points in the county, which again, voted for the Democratic candidate in 2012. Even more alarming for Clinton, the two Congressional Districts that make up Luzerne County are collectively 57% Democrat vs 36% Republican.

Some simply ugly takeaways for Clinton in Axiom’s polling, which has a 2.3% margin of error, include:

Q: What is your opinion of Donald Trump?
Favorable: 54%
Unfavorable: 37%
No opinion: 9%
Q: What is your opinion of Hillary Clinton?
Favorable: 31%
Unfavorable: 61%
No opinion: 8%

Q: The likely candidates in the General Election for President of the United States are the Republican Donald Trump, the Democrat Hillary Clinton and the Libertarian Gary Johnson or someone else. If the election were held today, for whom would you vote?
Donald Trump: 55%
Hillary Clinton: 32%
Gary Johnson: 5%
Someone else: 3%
Undecided: 5%

Q: Both Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump have been subject to scandal over the years. Which candidate’s record is more damaging?
Hillary Clinton: 57%
Donald Trump: 31%
Equally damaging: 8%
Unsure: 4%

Ouch.

Almost everyone I talk to in NE Pa says they are voting for Trump, but then there's the cities that may vote differently which I'm almost sure of!
 
After researching the major polls and their accuracy in the last several years, it seems FiveThirtyEight polls consistently comes out on top. They correctly predicted the outcome in all 50 states in the last election so I believe they are as good as it comes to actual results. They're analysis and polls show this ....... FiveThirtyEight/Pennsylvania 2016 election forecast

Not saying I like seeing this because I don't. No fan of Hillary at all. It is what it is though.
