Claim: Hillary Clinton had a 12-point lead over Donald Trump a week before the 2016 election.
Rating: False
Explanation: The claim is fiction. While an image of real polling data showing Clinton with a 12-point lead over Trump was used, it misleadingly presents this data as being from a week before the 2016 election. In reality, the poll was conducted on June 15, 2016, months before the election. By the final week before the election, Clinton’s lead had significantly decreased, with most polls indicating a much smaller margin.
