I think the hypothetical between Clinton and a non-cheeto candidate (Rubio?) would be best, since it won't be polluted by Dems who would not have voted in a hypothetical Republican primary re-do.

Speaking as a guy who's worked for a competitor of PPP as a telephone interviewer, some begs: 1. For the interviewer's sake, don't include any question you'd be afraid to ask a family member, and presume third parties can hear both sides. So I would never ever ask a question like "Are you gay?" because you may be asking someone to out themselves where that's not a good idea. On a political survey, questions that break this rule of thumb are really uncomfortable. Because yes, you will have actual people doing this and it's not cool to make an already awkward experience (cold-calling a random phone number is terrifying) worse. 2. Remember that most of these firms rate the folks on the phones by how many surveys they complete per hour. Joke questions are good, but leave em to the end so it's glaringly obvious that the question, not the interviewer, is the reason the respondent hangs up on the interviewer in frustration.

Alternative question for the national level question: "Who is more to blame for the gridlock in Washington, Congress or the President?" Though this will results in the expected crosstabs.

If Donald Trump's tax returns proved that he donated money to the NAMBLA, would you be more or less likely to vote for him?

Maybe Clinton vs Trump Clinton vs Johnson (how many of her supporters are anti-Trump?) Johnson vs Trump (do people like him or just think 'better the devil you don't know'?) state race weird question Not only would it annoy Trump, it'd annoy Jill Stein by implying no one would vote for her no matter her opponents...

If Utah is done: 1. 2-way 2. 5-way w/ McMuffin (because it's relevant to this state) 3. "Do you agree or disagree with Gov Herbert's endorsement of Trump?" 4. Still fond of that terrorism question, but others disagree 5. I would say a Mormon question (like have you seen the musical?), but given what Spacewolf said, dunno.

What about Mississippi? It's a backwater shithole with few electoral votes, sure, but it looks like there has only been one poll, way back in March, and it was just T+3.

This is the glory of this election, it opens a treasure trove of states that we could poll. If we do Mississippi, I think Ol' Miss vs Miss State would be a good silly question (and one that would likely not get someone to hang up on). There's no senate or governor race this year there, so you could do a Governor approval poll if you want a state relevant question.

Lets do the poll there iospace is probably right that Utah's the best bet there, but Utah's more likely to be polled by someone than, say, Idaho (or apparently Mississippi?) and I'm sure we can't be the first to think of asking Hillary vs Trump plus either vs Johnson. Seconding the request not to do a push poll - it doesn't give useful information, it doesn't make anyone laugh, and they're yucky.

Alaska! In terms of PVI, Alaska has moved more toward the Democrats in the last 15 years than any state except Vermont, so I'm curious to see what's going on there. Montana or Nebraska would be cool too.

You're not going to persuade the entire state of Utah that Trump is the unabomber by sticking accusatory innuendos into a poll question. The only poll question that has any chance of hurting Trump is one that gets accurate on-the-level data which embarrasses him.

Please insert a question for ring size with breakdown between male and female respondents and then after the poll please publish Trump's actual ring size for comparison. (not a serious proposal)

Yeah, I think with its sizable black population it could be interesting. Because holy poo poo do black people haaaate Trump. And maybe a "Do black lives, in fact, matter?

UPDATE I emailed PPP back just to see if they had any plans to poll IN, MO, or MS lest we get a little way along and find out they're already doing it or just did it like TX or SC, and they said they are not presently polling those three and have no immediate plans to do so. However, they can't do IN anyhow. Automated dialing not allowed.

I vote MS because it definitely isn't getting polled. Ole Miss vs Southern Miss would be fun for a state-wide question as I don't think they have a GOV or SEN election. And something about BLM would be fun for a trolly question.
