While most polls show Hillary Clinton with a reasonably comfortable lead, there are a few outliers. One of them, the Rasmussen poll, has the race as a statistical dead heat. Amy Holmes, a political analyst for Rasmussen Reports, elaborated. "Every poll has different methodology," she explained. "We look at three days in succession with 500 new people each night. It's a national poll and it's a four-way race. But if you look at the trend lines, all the polls tend to go in the same direction. The Access Hollywood story was like a grenade and we had Hillary Clinton up by seven points after that. But then there was the debate and Trump started to creep up. One thing we are finding in this election cycle is how sensitive people are to headlines."
