Trump, Clinton in virtual tie in Missouri

http://www.stltoday.com/news/local/govt-and-politics/trump-clinton-in-virtual-tie-in-missouri/article_ecbca03a-ea36-5bef-bf8c-fcb817cc7c31.html
"Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton are in a virtual tie in Missouri, according to a new Post-Dispatch poll.

A survey of 625 likely voters conducted last weekend shows the Democrat Clinton with 41 percent to the Republican Trump’s 40 percent, with Libertarian Gary Johnson at 9 percent. The telephone poll, conducted by Mason-Dixon Polling & Research, has a margin of error of plus or minus 4 percentage point"

"“Really, Missouri right now looks like a turnout game, which is really kind of the same thing that is going on nationally,” Coker said. “Because neither choice is popular … whoever is more successful in convincing their people that their (candidate) isn’t as bad as the other one” will win.

this poll had Dumpf up by 10, I think MO would be hard to win with it being older and whiter and many of the TV markets bleeding into safe states like KS and IL

The polls are crazy. One or both of them has to be wrong because I doubt the polls moved that much in a week.
