I can understand including the "won't vote" responce if you're forcing the choice between two candidates, but why in the world do they include it in an option that has all four choices plus a "other"? If you're not even voting in that scenario, why include you in the poll (basically - I have an issue with RV polls).

I'm not shocked about other since there are other candidates theoretically in the four-way. What I don't like in the Reuters LV poll is a choice for "Won't Vote." How are you a LV if you won't vote?

With that said, Economist/YouGov is the last remaining major RV national poll after NBC/Survey Monkey switched yesterday.

Is the Economist always showing a close Clinton lead?

Not really. 2-way has been between Clinton +1 and Clinton +7. (This is the first time Trump has trailed by just 1.)

4-way has bounced around a 2-6 point range. Trump has been within 2 four times.

It really hasn't bounced that much... the biggest shift week to week has been 3 points, which was the Dem convention bump.
