| Trump: 'Why am I not doing better in the polls?' | |
| New state-level polling by Greenberg Quinlan Rosner research points up potential flaws in Donald Trump’s strategy to remake the electoral map by winning Rust Belt states including Michigan, Pennsylvania and Ohio. | |
| Hillary Clinton leads Trump by 15 points in Michigan and nine points in Pennsylvania, the pollster finds: | |
| GQR polls:MI: Clinton+15WI: Clinton+12FL: Clinton+11NC: Clinton+10PA: C+9OH: TieNH: TieNV: TieAZ: Trump+6https://t.co/6z2C9fVpgD | |
| Trump’s plan to win New York state looks even worse in a new Siena College poll of Empire state voters. It gives Clinton a 23-point, 54-31 lead. | |
| The GQR poll’s 11-point lead for Clinton in Florida marks the third time this month a survey has found Clinton ahead by double digits in the state, FiveThirtyEight’s Harry Enten points out: | |
| Three polls this month in Florida give Clinton a double-digit lead. Obama never had any poll that gave him a double-digit lead in FL in 2012 | |
| People with local knowledge don’t quite believe all GQR’s numbers, however. Nevada journalism dean Jon Ralston thinks Clinton is up by “middle single digits” in the state, instead of tied with Trump, as GQR depicts: | |
| @Timodc @jbarro NV data conflicts with at least three other polls I have seen. Very odd. | |
| @Timodc @jbarro Hillary in middle single digits up statewide. | |
| Trump, for his part, registered surprise Thursday morning that he was not doing better in the polls. Trump told radio interviewer Mike Gallagher, “I go to Ohio, we were there two days ago, and Pennsylvania and near Pittsburgh and we – I was in West Virginia, the crowds are massive. | |
| And you know, I walked out of one and I said, ‘I don’t see how I’m not leading.’ You know, you see the kinds of crowds. We have thousands of people standing outside trying to get in... And I’m saying, you know, ‘Why am I not doing better in the polls?’ | |
| Trump tells @radiotalkermike that he is baffled that he is not leading in polls. (h/t to @BuzzFeedAndrew) pic.twitter.com/3PHeP1s4rx | |

| Trump hires three new pollsters – report | |
| The Donald Trump campaign is more than doubling its roster of pollsters, with three new hires who previously backed the Ted Cruz, Chris Christie and Rick Perry presidential campaigns, respectively, the New York Times reports: | |
| Kellyanne Conway, a veteran pollster who has had a long working relationship with Mr. Trump, is among those joining the effort.[...] Mr. Trump’s team is also expected to bring on Adam Geller, who works with Gov. Chris Christie of New Jersey, and Michael Baselice, who was the pollster for former Gov. Rick Perry of Texas and for the state’s governor now, Greg Abbott. | |
| Trump previously paid two pollsters. | |

| The Democratic national committee has denied a report that the party is looking into options for moving Hillary Clinton’s acceptance speech at the national convention in Philadelphia from the Wells Fargo Center (seats 19,500) to a larger venue. | |
| The BillyPenn local media site exclusively reported that the Democrats were looking for a larger venue, quoting US Representative Bob Brady: | |
| Philly Congressman Bob Brady said nothing has been finalized but “there’s talk about it. | |
| “It’s a good idea by the way, too,” said Brady, who is honorary vice chair of the DNC. “It engages people and gets people involved.” | |
| But a DNC press secretary told BillPenn, “This is absolutely incorrect. There is no talk of changing venue.” | |
