The RealClearPolitics average of polls shows AZ as a toss up with Trump leading the avg. by 1%. But that was before the last poll from Data Orbital was released.
The poll released this morning, show Hillary Clinton with a 1% lead in the state. But the numbers have to be more worrisome than that since Hispanics which represent almost 33% of the state’s electorate, are undersampled, accounting for only 20% of the poll respondents.Trump | 42% |
Clinton | 43% |
Johnson | 5% |
Undecided | 6% |
Also, given that Clinton’s campaign looks much more organized on the ground and with the aid of third-party groups like “Mi Familia Vota, which registered close to 150k new democrat voters in the past three weeks, Arizona is starting to look like a very tricky proposition for the Trump campaign.
Going back to the average, which has not yet calculated this last poll…It takes into account the last 4 polls of the state. Once this poll gets calculated into it, they will drop the oldest poll which shows Trump up by 4%, swinging the RCP average from +1% for Trump to a tie.
Do you think the 2nd Amendment will be destroyed by the Biden Administration?(2)
The poll also includes new numbers on prop 205 which would legalize recreational marijuana in the state. That race is currently a toss-up as well.
