Before the RNC it was Clinton+2.

After the RNC, they had Trump+4.

Now, they have Clinton+3.

So, according to MC Trump got a 6% bump and Clinton a 7% bump.

Yeah, I suspected that, after the DNC, we'd be back to square one, before the conventions began.

Which means both the LA Times and the RABA national polls are very likely big outliers.

To be fair, LA Times started at Trump +3 when the HuffPost average was Clinton +3, so it started as an outlier.

as has been mentioned numerous times, the LA Times/USC poll is a rolling 7 day average, if it shows Trump leading by August 3rd or 4th then you can call it an outlier.

I see no reason not to call it one, as I said, it kicked off with a sample of +3 Trump against a national average of +3 Clinton.

Seems reasonable to me!

When will they switch to LV?

Hold up! Right before the RNC really isn't a good starting point as Clinton had JUST been hurt by the Comey press conference. This makes it very hard to measure any bounces. That whole indictment affair probably took the race from Clinton +7 to Clinton +3, but how much of her bounce back now is due to the convention and how much is due to the Comey story fading into the background? Very hard to tell. If the race is Clinton +3 now, then it is still closer than pre-Comey.

I like how Tender thinks he is the authority on the size of the polling bounce.
