The race between Clinton and Trump represents a battle between two of the least liked major party candidates in history, and Pew’s findings are hardly the first to show that voters are largely disappointed with both. “And yet we’re minimum tied”, Trump said on Tuesday at a rally in North Carolina, according to the AP.

Libertarian Gary Johnson gets 10 percent while the Green Party’s Jill Stein has 1 percent support.
