hillary clinton is up 6 points on donald trump in the latest reuters-ipsos poll .




she leads donald trump 45-39.




but, once again, the sampling data tells a different story.




here are the numbers:




1228 <u+2013> dem <u+2013>45%




934 <u+2013> rep <u+2013>34%




329 <u+2013> ind <u+2013>12%









independents make up 43% of the population in a 2015 gallup poll.




and republicans were (as usual) under-sampled in the poll.




so the pollsters oversampled democrats by 11 points to give hillary a 6 point lead.




they got the result they wanted <u+2013> a big hillary lead.
