The poll also found 43 percent of participants planned to vote for Democratic gubernatorial candidate Kate Brown and 35 percent planned to vote for Republican Bud Pierce. And in Pennsylvania, Clinton polls slightly lower than previously but still ahead of Trump, at 48 percent support to Trump’s 43 percent.
According to the poll commissioned by CNN, a clear majority of registered voters (59%) still believe that Clinton will triumph over Trump in the election on November 8.
Clinton and Trump are also in a virtual tie in OH while Clinton holds small leads in North Carolina and Pennsylvania, according to Quinnipiac surveys released Thursday.
According to RealClearPolitics’ current projections, even winning all four states highlighted in this poll won’t be enough to clinch the presidency for Trump. Her lead has diminished since Quinnipiac last polled Pennsylvania in early August, where she led by 10 points, 52 percent to 42 percent. Just 34 percent said Trump.
Ohio: Trump, 41; Clinton, 37; Johnson, 14; Stein, 4. Johnson had 15% in North Carolina; Stein is not on the ballot in the state. A full 58 percent of voters who say they will cast their vote for the Republican candidate say they are enthusiastic about going to the polls this year.
Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton used poor polling numbers as a fundraising point in the campaign’s latest fundraising email sent to supporters Wednesday. CNN/ORC gave Mr Trump a six-point lead over Mrs Clinton after his party’s convention in July. She still has the upper hand in most of the crucial swing states, such as Pennsylvania and Florida, that will likely decide the election.
Trump had not been in the lead in OH since May. Meanwhile, 38 percent of women and 49 percent of men think Clinton has unfairly attacked Trump. The pollster asked the question of 778 likely voters from August 29 to to September 7 with an error margin of 3.5 points.
