    You're an insider who knows more. With HC up 10pp in poll that sampled 18.9% more Dems, is that good for her? @matthewjdowd Will turnout be

        440-D, 370-R. So there are 70 more Ds. 70 is 18.9% of R number of 370 (70/370)

        I.E. If they interview 10 D and 15 R that's 50% more R even though only a count of 5.

        the nbc poll sample is 8 points more dem than r. That is the right math.

        really.. that's why Remain was a 2 to 1 to win. If you over sample dems, not a true poll

        huh??? There are more dems in america than GOP. Six point dem advantage is likely. This poll has it at 8.

        Tiny, he says. You will find it very hard for any poll that many more % D to not show H high. 1/2
