The Daybreak results are at odds with other major polls, who mostly have Clinton polling higher than Trump, which is explained by the poll's method, Instead of asking a yes or no question like other polls do, Daybreak asks the respondents to measure the likelihood of their voting for a candidate on a scale from 0 to 100.
The unusual polling technique allowed to predict Barack Obama's win in the 2012 elections with a very high exactitude.
The US presidential elections will take place on November 8, but early voting has already begun.
