In the same poll last month, the Democrat Clinton had a six point lead over Trump – 43 to 37 percent. Clinton and Trump are tied 41-41 in OH, and Trump leads 43-41 in Pennsylvania.
Eighty-one per cent of Americans say they would feel afraid following the election of one of the two polarizing politicians, according to a new Associated Press-GfK poll.
Forty-seven per cent of Trump’s supporters consider him only slightly or not at all civil, 39 per cent say he’s slightly or not at all likable and 31 per cent say he’s only slightly or not at all qualified.
Asking “what example will we set?” for our children, the ad then transitions into a portion of Clinton’s speech the night she clinched the delegates needed for the Democratic presidential nomination.
In her speech, Clinton rattled off a series of attacks against her GOP rival, calling Trump “dangerous”, “divisive”, “fear-mongering” and “pitting American against American”. Ron Johnson, R-Wisconsin, maintained 41 percent support since the June poll.
Clinton spoke of healing and resisting the urge to tear one another down following the shooting deaths of African-American men at the hands of police in Baton Rouge, La., and in a suburb of St. Paul, Minn., as well as the subsequent killings of five police officers in Dallas last week. Among independents the race is nearly a virtual tie: 36 percent for Clinton, 33 percent for Trump and 23 percent undecided. Only 21 percent of Florida’s non-white voters support Trump.
“Florida will be a very hard lift for (Trump) if he can’t do better among non-white votes”, Brown said.
Sandman calls poll numbers “a snap shot in time“.
The victor of two of those three states usually goes on to become president, and right now that’s Donald Trump.
“Donald Trump enters the Republican convention on a small roll in the three most important swing states in the country”, Brown said.
