Poll: Trump Leads in Top Battleground Counties in U.S.A.

TAMPA, Florida — New polling from some of the most contentious battleground counties in 2016 finds overall support for presumptive Republican Presidential Nominee Donald J. Trump.

Six out of seven counties surveyed nationally stand within the Trump column, according to a poll released Monday by Axiom Strategies and Remington Research Group. Luzerne County, Pennsylvania (Wilkes-Barre) shows Trump’s widest lead with a 23 point advantage. The Republican’s most slim margin comes from Jefferson County, Colorado (Golden).

Of the seven counties surveyed, presumptive Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton can only claim Loudon County, Virginia, populated by Washington, D.C. bedroom communities and is the third-largest county in the Commonwealth.

The poll, now with its second survey complete, shows an improvement for Trump, having flipped Jefferson County, CO to his column since early June. July topline numbers are provided below.

Hillsborough County, FL: Clinton 40% / Trump 43% (Trump +3)

Jefferson County, CO: Clinton 39% / Trump 40% (Trump +1)

Watauga County, NC: Clinton 39% / Trump 46% (Trump +7)

Sandusky County, OH: Clinton 31% / Trump 42% (Trump +11)

Luzerne County, PA: Clinton 32% / Trump 55% (Trump +23)

Loudon County, VA: Clinton 44% / Trump 41% (Clinton +3)

Washoe County, NV: Clinton 36% / Trump 48% (Trump +12)

Axiom Strategies explained that the seven counties were selected for their history of predicting a statewide result dating back to 2000. The outfit describes itself as “the largest Republican political consulting firm in the country.”

LOL!  So, surveying COUNTIES is supposed to tell us something?  Axxiom doesn't even register with 538's rankings, which means they don't poll enough to be analyzed.

Yeah, in an area that is very populist-minded.  Of course it will poll well for Trump.  Problem is, what flies in Wilkes-Barre turns off people elsewhere.  The electors are awarded statewide, not on a county basis.

To determine how much validity I should give your post, may I ask, are you a neverTrump? Or, are you giving us objective analysis?

If you think Wilkes-Barre, PA is going to carry Pennsylvania, you've got another thing coming...

Right... but what does this have to do with contesting the states?  Last I checked, counties don't carry electoral votes.

Might not the top county polls be an INDICATOR of trends within a state?
