Donald Trump is a numbers guy, and the numbers aren’t good after a series of state and national polls released in the last 24 hours show the Republican presidential nominee down in virtually every survey, several in double digits.
“Hillary Clinton is leading thanks to southern Florida and women”, said David Paleologos, director of the Suffolk University Political Research Center in Boston.
“It’s the kind of place that you’d normally think would be fertile ground for Trump”, Ayres said, before contending that “absolutely nothing has happened” to suggest Trump can be the first Republican since 1988 to paint Pennsylvania red.

Only once since 1976 – the election of Jimmy Carter that year – has the margin at which the winning party voted for its candidate been more than a point less than the margin at which the losing party supported its candidate (according to exit polls). These came on the heels of national polls by CNN and NBC that showed Trump trailing by at least 8 percentage points. Forty percent who watched the Republican convention a week earlier said they were more likely to vote for Trump. Trump’s support had fallen to 89 percent.
The former secretary of state bashed Trump with one of his own catchphrases Thursday.

Six hundred likely MI voters were surveyed in the poll.
The Atlanta Journal Constitution poll was conducted between August 1 and 4, and surveyed 847 registered Georgia voters.

According to the new McClatchy-Marist poll, Hillary Clinton now has the support of 48 percent of the potential voters as against Trump’s 33 percent. Though again, Clinton’s figures are somewhat better.
When it comes to voters under 30, opinions are clear. Whereas Clinton had 44 percent of the respondents view her favorably and half of likely Florida voters viewing her unfavorably.

Their concern? A belief that the numbers could dip – and could lull voters into a false belief that her campaign doesn’t need their support with the election still months away.
