Executive Summary
Gravis Marketing, a nonpartisan research firm, in conjunction with Breitbart News Network, conducted a
random survey of 1,824 registered voters across the United States. The poll was conducted from October
25th through the 26th and has a margin of error of 2.3% at the 95% confidence level. The total may not
round to 100% because of rounding. The poll was conducted using a combination of interactive voice
response polling and an internet panel of cell phone users, with the results weighted by voting
demographics.

14) Which of the following best represents your view in making a choice for president?

We now want to ask you some more detailed questions about particular policies and issues
15) Which do you think is riskier: electing someone who is experienced but who will not tend to
bring much change to Washington and will generally continue the policies as they exist, or electing
someone who will bring change to Washington but lacks experience and has few ties to the
establishment?

16) How likely do you think it is that the election is rigged?

17) The FBI has concluded that Hillary Clinton potentially exposed top secret information to hostile

18) Considering the coverage of the major television networks and a majority of the major
newspapers which best describes how they are covering the election?

19) How concerned are you with controlling immigration and securing the southern border?

20) Do you support President Obamas plan to increase the number of refugees coming to the
United States from the Middle East, Africa, and other parts of the world to 110,000 next year, up
from the current level of 85,000, or do you think we should allow no refugees, fewer refugees, or the
same as the current level?

21) Hillary Clintons supporters at the Refugee Council want to increase the number of refugees
coming into the United States in 2017 even more, to 200,000, and Hillary wants to increase the
number of Syrian refugees in that total from 10,000 in 2016 to 65,000 in 2017. Do you approve or
disapprove of this increase?

22) Do you believe that Syrian refugees arriving in the United States have been subjected to the
most rigorous security vetting, as the Obama Administration claims?

questionable. Do you approve or disapprove of that position?

26) Are the revelations in the Wikileaks emails of her Wall Street speeches which she had refused to
release damaging to Hillary Clintons credibility?

27) Do you think the accusations by women of lewd conduct against Donald Trump is damaging to
his credibility?

28) Have you seen on television or read in the news media about the video that came out this week
by an undercover investigative group showing Democratic operatives bragging that they recruited
people to disrupt Donald Trump events?

Several organizations that go back to the Democratic National Committee and even perhaps to the
campaign of Hillary Clinton had operatives who, in an undercover investigative video expose,
admitted that they had recruited people to disrupt Donald Trump events and even discussed how to
rig votes in the general election. Those two operatives were both fired. The person they identify as
their leader, and who appears in the video, turns out to have been to the Obama White House
almost 350 times and had dozens of direct meetings with President Obama.
29) Do you think this is a scandal that should be considered in this presidential election or does it
not seem to be that important?

records, 430 people who work in journalism have made contributions to presidential campaigns. 96
percent of the money contributed, or $382,000, was donated to Hillary Clinton by about 380 of
these journalists. 50 of these journalists have combined to give $14,000 to Donald Trump. Which of
the following best represents your opinion?
