UPI/CVoter poll: Trump regains lead over Clinton as September ends

WASHINGTON Oct. 1 (UPI) -- The UPI/CVoter daily presidential tracking poll released Saturday shows Donald Trump leading Hillary Clinton by nearly 2 percentage points.

The online poll shows Trump with 49.31 percent, to Clinton's 47.34 percent.

Trump has gained more than 3 percentage points and Clinton has lost more than 1 point over the course of seven days, the poll's full sample size.

The UPI/CVoter online tracking poll surveys about 200 people each day, leading to a sample size of roughly 1,400 people during any seven-day span.

Because the poll is conducted online and individuals self-select to participate, a margin of error cannot be calculated. The poll has a credibility interval of 3 percentage points. This seven-day span includes data collected from Sept. 23 to 29, when 1,804 individuals were surveyed. Of them, 1,236 identified themselves as likely voters.

Unfortunately most political pundits consider online polls worthless.

Fortunately, most Americans know that most political pundits are worthless.
