MI-Mitchell: Clinton +5

[Seriously?]

^^^ Interesting how you didn't immediately note this is a Republican pollster. That usually triggers you when it's a D firm.

Anyways Michigan polls suck, so if this is accurate it's on accident.

The poll was done by Mitchell Research for Fox 2 Detroit.  It is not an internal.  It is a public poll by another one of the Michigan-only crap pollsters.  Do we need a disclaimer for every PPP poll that they are a Democratic pollster, even when not publishing internals?

Don't people normally put a PPP (D) anyways?

btw PPP polls have been fairly generous to Trump among serious pollsters.

No. They don't. And they should every time that PPP does a poll for a left-leaning advocacy group as opposed to a regular PPP poll.

This is a public poll for a TV station, not an internal. It should be treated as such, even if it is one of Michigan's numerous sucktastic pollsters.

Why do you say that PPP is a Democratic pollster?  Although they certainly had a Democratic lean several years ago, they've recently been close to the mean or slightly R-positive.  538 has them at R+0.2.

(Hmm, is R-positive a Vulcan blood type?)

There are two types of PPP polls. The ones they do for themselves and the ones they do for left-leaning advocacy groups. They should be labeled accordingly. It's one of my pet peeves on here that they aren't, 90% of the time.
