Everyone should read the methodology of this poll. It's the most ridiculous way to poll I've ever seen. Rather than doing something sensible like polling actual voters they've taken a huge sample and then tried to remodel people to fit an abstract profile of who a voter is supposed to be based on demographics. The result is basically a poll of fictional people. Might as well just make up the numbers. Plus the inclusion of a candidate who has repeatedly denied an intent to run skews the results.
