Its the likely voter screen. Apparently the screen for voter intention is causing the shifts.

Well, this teaches us a lesson in statistical variance, but still....from +12 to +2 in a few days with no real news (before emails) is quite something.

That means their likely voter model is terrible

No, but it shows that it really doesn't know what the number is.

It is hilarious that Trumpers Red hacks I see on twitter are now ignoring this so called most accurate poll ever and are pumping up the ABC IBD/Tipp poll now, which a week ago was a complete joke to them.
Agreed.

They use presumably about the same model that always. The model that gave them A+ rating on 538. We don't have any evidence that it wouldn't work this election as well, do we?

And is it not hypocritical that Red Hacks always talk about LV, when they don't like results? Why did LV screen look good for, when this polls showed C+12?

As I always say: Average and move on. Average every single poll. Or just use 538/Upshot/HuffPost.

I see no racism from police against Blacks, just a sad trolls protesting to get interviewed by CNN instead of working hard.

It is ok, when we do it!

Yeah, so basically what we can conclude from the polls is that no pollster really has a good idea of who's going to turn out, but also that there simply are not enough people willing to vote for Trump to put him over the top unless Hillary voters turn out in numbers lower than their lowest of low projections.

yep. In my mind, it's either a small Clinton popular vote win with the slight possibility of a Trump Electoral college win, or a large Clinton popular vote win.

Nate Silver is sayint exactly what I've been saying.

Average and move on. But Atlas experts digs deep into each single poll and, even worse, in small subgroups and do "analysis", lol.

Before the primaries. He gave up directly after Iowa/NH more or less. But it was 16 dudes, and polls are generally pretty unstable there.

But yeah, he was wrong. Though, it has nothing to do with this tweet, has it?

But he didn't give up, he kept trying to say he was right, until he made a fool of himself and his site, now he is trying to over-correct the record.

This poll could mean two very opposite things: either a tightening of the race or, as the poll indicated some Clinton voters felt their vote wasn't needed for Clinton to win, that she could get a bump from the Comey scandal by pushing those people to vote.

In what way did this poll indicate it?

Guys, it's over. Clinton is being trounced right now in early voting for every swing state except Colorado.

Trump was surging even before the reopened FBI investigation. And his supporters are way more energized.

Trump will win.

Huh I suggest you go look at the early vote thread with actual facts before you spew innuendo.
