PPP finds that the slumping numbers for Trump and Clinton are due to increased dislike for each of them.

According to the most recent Marquette Law School Poll released Wednesday, Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton’s lead over Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump has decreased among registered Wisconsin voters.
Hillary Clinton leads with 42% to 37% for Donald Trump, 6% for Gary Johnson, 4% for Jill Stein, and 1% for Evan McMullin, with 10% of voters still undecided.
The poll shows Clinton’s leading among her core groups like nonwhites and women.
An interesting piece of data deep in the poll is that more voters claim to have attended a Clinton rally (5 percent) than a Trump rally (2 percent), despite Trump’s constant emphasis on the number of people that turn out for his events. Johnson took 20 percent of that contingent and Stein received just seven.
Given that the poll appears to have oversampled Democrats-42 percent of respondents said they were Democrats, 33 percent said they were Republican, and 26 percent as independent or other-the results may portend even more trouble for Clinton.
Among those identifying in the poll as “extremely” or “very” interested in this presidential election, 43 percent back Clinton, 42 percent back Trump.
McGinty has a 27 percent favorable rating and a 17 percent unfavorable rating while a staggering 56 percent of voters said they have no opinion of her. Thirty-eight percent of registered voters have a favorable impression of Clinton, while 59 percent do not.
Those ratings are Mrs Clinton’s worst in the quarter century she has spent in public positions, though still ahead of Mr Trump’s 35-63 split.
Monmouth pollsters noted in a statement that President Barack Obama won the state’s minority vote in 2012 by 71 percentage points and Republican opponent Mitt Romney won by 15 percentage points among white voters.
