According to the latest Reuters/Ipsos daily tracking poll released on Friday, Clinton is 5-percentage-point ahead of Trump in terms of national support, 41 percent to 36 percent.
Trump kept up his attacks on Hillary Clinton, her time at the State Department, her email server and her involvement with the charity husband Bill Clinton started.
“Nothing means more to me than working to make our party the home of the African-American vote once again”, Trump said while speaking before a almost all-white audience at Iowa Sen.

He said the country’s GDP growth rate of 1.1 percent in the second quarter was not a good sign for the USA economy.
But he has continued to send mixed signals about a key issue for many Latinos: immigration.
“Your running mate called Hillary Clinton a bigot”.
