In Poll After Poll Trump Leads Clinton Among Independents

General election polls of the nation and battleground states consistently show Republican nominee Donald Trump besting Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton among independent voters.

This lead among independent/non-party affiliated voters for Trump is also found in polls where Clinton leads overall. For example, in the most recent poll of national voters from Public Policy Polling, Clinton leads Trump 46 percent to 41 percent. Among independent voters, however, Trump leads 42 percent to 35 percent. 

In another recent national poll from CNN/ORC, Trump leads Clinton 44 percent to 39 percent. This poll has Trump leading Clinton by 18 percent among independents, 46 percent to 28 percent. Libertarian candidate Gov. Gary Johnson has 15 percent of the independent support in this poll.

A poll of voters nationally released last week from YouGov has Clinton ahead of Trump 40 percent to 38 percent. That same poll has Trump leading with independent voters 38 percent to 26 percent.

A lot of the polls will be off because they're being weighed to skew towards democrats. This is done on purpose and Fox is the latest to go by this practice. It's a shame but we can not trust the MSM for information anymore. They're badly flawed and biased against Republicans. It's been that way awhile but this election they don't even bother trying to hide their unprofessionalism.

The media is doing their very best to promote the narrative that she is winning.
MSNBC has YET to do a story on her lies, cover-ups, and crimes.
EVERY DAY, however, they do several stories on Trump's "failing campaign", polls (by and for liberals) showing how badly she is trouncing him, and generally avoiding ANY criticism of hillary.
She has to PAY (!!) people to come to her rallies and cheer.
Trump has to turn away people at his rallies (that attract 20-30,000 people at at a time).
Who are going to believe? CNN, MSNBC, or your lying eyes??
Right.
Keep cheering.
