Don't relax yet. WTF is up with these polls?

Investor Business Daily has had Trump leading nationally in its tracking poll the last couple of days. Same with the Rasmussen poll. And then there's the LATimes/USC tracking poll.

Now, I have watched Rasmussen for over a decade and during election years it tends to lean right and be an outlier favoring the GOP. IBD I don't know as much about but it isn't the gold standard in polling. And the LATimes/USC poll has methodological differences that make it a permanent outlier.

But still, THREE FUCKING POLLS!? WTFghazi is going on??

Just got my ballot in the mail as I live in Portland, OR. I'll begin filling it out within the hour.
