New Survey Shows Nearly 20% of Likely Democratic Voters Would Vote for Donald Trump Than Hillary Clinton

MAKE NO MISTAKE ABOUT IT, HILLARY CLINTON IS NO GUARANTEE FOR DEMOCRATS …

According to a recent survey by Washington-based Mercury Analytics, 20% of likely Democrat voters say they would cross sides and vote for Donald Trump. Could The Donald actually peal away discontent Democrat voters who have been provided no viable options by their party? Although I would have to some what question the so-called 14% of Republicans that claim they’d vote for Clinton. First, if so, they need to have their heads examined and the GOP cards taken away from them. Second, such a claim does not fit the political environment of trending toward political outsiders and against the party in power. However, if so, it does go to show you what is wrong with the Republican party in that they would ever consider voting for a corrupt, lying, Washington insider like Hillary.

A new survey of likely voters might at least raise momentary dyspepsia for Democrats since it suggests why it wouldn’t be a cakewalk.

The survey by Washington-based Mercury Analytics is a combination online questionnaire and “dial-test” of Trump’s first big campaign ad among 916 self-proclaimed “likely voters” (this video shows the ad and the dial test results). It took place primarily Wednesday and Thursday and has a margin of error of plus or minus 3.5 percent.

Nearly 20 percent of likely Democratic voters say they’d cross sides and vote for Trump, while a small number, or 14 percent, of Republicans claim they’d vote for Clinton. When those groups were further broken down, a far higher percentage of the crossover Democrats contend they are “100 percent sure” of switching than the Republicans.
