based on 2,411 respondents ACROSS the country. not 300 people "randomly" selected from The Clinton Foundation staff...

Each day's poll respondents are a subset of the UAS election panel, roughly 3000 U.S. citizens who were randomly recruited from among all households in the United States. Respondents are asked three predictive questions: What is the percent chance that (1) you will vote in the presidential election? (2) you will vote for Clinton, Trump, or someone else? and (3) Clinton, Trump or someone else will win?

These charts are updated daily (just after midnight) with an average of all of the prior week's responses. The Daybreak Poll began on July 4, 2016, and will run through the November election.

"The USC Dornsife/L.A. Times Presidential Election "Daybreak" Poll asks more than 400 people each day about their voting intentions."
 
and 400 x 7 = 2,800

if they're all separate, but the little blurb about the methodology i read didn't state that, just that each day they pick around of 3,000 possible per day. i tried to read more on the linked usc site, but they have a certificate error with their site and chrome won't load the page.

either way, it's an outlier poll, much like the roanoke college poll that had hrc up 16 in virginia this week. i'd take both with a grain of salt.
 
There is also a wide swath of Trump supporters who arent getting polled, either by choice or they have just felt like they were disenfranchised for the last however many cycles. Its really hard to gauge that real amount (and the ones who like trump and still go to the polls) Could be small, could be a ground swell movement. November will show the real answer
