I was looking the polls on the rcp and they had one from abc that has clinton up 12 percent. I thought that was really high so I looked into the percent of people polled and the breakdown showed the poll queried 9% more democrats than republicans. Is this normal? I would have assumed the poll would have had a close to even ratio of republicans and democrats.


Here are the details of that poll.

I encourage you to look into it and decide for yourself if it's legit before listening to some talking head on TV.

I looked up the details of the poll before I posted abut it. I didn't hear any "talking heads" mention it. I just thought the poll seemed like an outlier, so I looked into it and saw they sampled a lot more democrats than republicans. For what it's worth the most accurate presidential poll of recent elections has them tied.
