It was taken during Trump's bounce.
Hillary Clinton didn't have a 19-point bounce in two days. Virginia is basically a bellwether state that mirrors the national vote with an extremely slight tilt R.

Except with a s***house poll from a s***house pollster.

I think every poll from this pollster must be taken with a serious grain of salt. There's no way Clinton is up 15 nationally and there's no way she's down 4 in VA with a VP from there, even when you factor bounces in one way or another
That applies literally to all the polls, since MOE is usually about 3-6 pps. So even if we has a perfectly conducted poll, the margin of victory could be 6-12 off due to it's JUST A POLL.

Ah, no.
