Polling update

 The polling data is confusing because some of the polls don't include Cornel West, the Statehood Party candidate, who will be on the ballot in many states.  He's been pulling 4-5% of the vote. As CNN reported: “This is going to sneak up on people,” said David Axelrod, a former Barack Obama adviser who also serves as a CNN political commentator. “I don’t know why alarm bells aren’t going off now, and they should be at a steady drumbeat from now until the election.”
