Clinton was ahead of Trump by exactly 11 points in an NBC/WSJ poll released on October 16, 2016.

Hillary Clinton shares a moment with Joe Biden during a leadership portrait unveiling ceremony for former Senate Minority Leader Senator Harry Reid December 8, 2016 on Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C.But there are some significant differences. For one, Clinton was only backed by 48 percent of voters in the October 2016 poll, while Trump was supported by 37 percent.

Biden is polling over 50 percent—or 5 percentage points higher than Clinton was in the 2016 survey. While Clinton's and Biden's margin over Trump may be the same, the current Democratic nominee still appears to be in a better position than his predecessor. Now, Trump is down 11 percentage points while only 5 percent of voters remain undecided or plan to support other candidates.

That A LIE

But trailer park polls in 2016 predicted the Trump win. This time he's down by five pts early.

...and look at what happened...

What you didn't mention is that 2016 was a low turn out year. Not only are we seeing record numbers, but the incumbent has a 50 plus disapproval rating.

...except there is no Comey October surprise factor. They intend to use the Hunter Biden story, but it has no teeth. Unknown person dropped a laptop with emails from Hunter Biden and somehow Giuliani got a copy of the hard drive...not believable plus no Joe. Nice try!!!

BS Satan's pole same as last time Hi legions work behind the scenes Put a finger on the scale No way Joe is ahead he's a flake lost cause The dems have been a verdictive group of scornfully deranged psychotics Pursued a coup impeachment a fake whistle blower resisted obstructed

Yeah, we are skeptical about that. We are still going to come out in droves

...Only this time we actually saw that he is totally unprepared and a total fool.

Not a very comforting thought. I hope we've learned our lesson.🥴 VoteBlueToSaveAmerica VoteBlueToEndThisNightmare

Conflating a weeks-long average with a single poll. Newsweek is such garbage these days!

Yes but thankfully we don't have to deal with James Comey this time.

Oof .... Sorry dems

2001Alarm. JETS WENT WRONG WAY. 4 yrs ago Princess Di died/France. New Yor/ attacked. Vacant in Lancaster, I was redfaced by my diet & met 👑 of England, CANADA ATTACK.PRESIDENT BUSH ATTACKD. Reported, they are 💣. Portland, location of HUD BOSSES, Security Tapes of War🌈 Brdge

Wouldn't count either one of them out at this point. Polls are indicators. Voters seal the deal.

Ominous

Trump was fraudulently placed in office and is trying the same again

And there will be an identical outcome!

Wrong. Clinton only had a 3% lead at this point

The bitter Goldwater Girl election debacle, part II.

If you don’t compare undecideds it’s an invalid comparison.

Stop upsetting us

A lot different this time, doesn't matter either way though, people have to vote!

thanks for the reminder that Jim Comey really sucks

still making me nervous

GOTTA VOTE! Polls only affect those who cannot make up their mind on their own.

Voters just need to show up this time BidenHarrisLandslide2020

Just me, my son and our Ukrainian buddies

womp, womp

I'm sure his crackhead son having quid pro quo with him in those Ukraine deals aren't helping his lead.

Newsweek gonna be Newsweek.

Vote like Biden is down 50 points!!!!!! VoteBlue

Yes, this one too, last election

Everyone vote blue

Polls don’t matter if you don’t vote. So vote. Get all you know to vote. Democracy may depend on it.

Somebody better keep Comey in a locked closet until November 4th

Yeah? 15,000,000 Americans vote by then too? Didn’t think so...

Ignore the polls Donate, volunteer and vote straight Democrat, America's future as a functional democracy depends on it

The difference is that half of Americans hated Clinton for whatever reason. Nobody hates Joe.
