The third most concerning topic, according to 64 percent of voters, is Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email server while she served as secretary of state.

About 36 percent are concerned about Clinton’s handling of Syria, Iraq and Libya.
A new NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll revealed that Hillary Clinton has erased the voter enthusiasm gap and moved out to a seven-point national lead over Donald Trump.
“My biggest concern is. that people accommodate their questions and lower the bar of their questions to suit the candidate in front of them”, Jennifer Palmieri, Clinton’s communications director, told reporters traveling on the candidate’s plane to a campaign event here.
Trump and Clinton were tied in the swing state of Florida at 43 percent each in the beginning of August, and both are now tied at 45 percentage points in the Real Clear Average for the state.
Those lukewarm attitudes even extend to backers of the two major party nominees.
– Trump’s praise for Russian President Vladimir Putin, at 59 percent. Clinton has 43 percent support of likely voters in a four-way race, with Trump at 37 percent, Libertarian Party nominee Gary Johnson pulling nine percent, and Green Party candidate Jill Stein at three percent.
Much of Clinton’s spending was made up of campaign ads.
She also shared that one challenge of preparing for the debates is uncertainty about how aggressive or laid-back Trump might be. A Washington Post/ABC News poll last month found Clinton and Trump to be the two most unpopular presidential candidates in decades.
“Having said all of this, ‘Why aren’t I 50 points ahead?’ you might ask?”
