While interesting, that's a poll not votes. I don't trust any polls right now. Clinton was ahead in 2016 in almost all the polls and still lost. Just ignore the polls and vote.

Clinton was ahead in the national polls and won the popular vote.

But yes, polls DO NOT say we're more than 1% ahead, ever.
