Addressing a joint convention of black and Hispanic journalists Friday, Hillary Clinton found herself wading through a Q&A session – a format that has become a rarity for her.

The EPIC-MRA of Lansing poll shows the Democrat with 43 percent support among likely voters in the state and Trump at 32 percent.
While Clinton may appreciate the work of the media, one reporter told her the media would appreciate it if she helped them do their work. Clinton was speaking to the National Association of Black Journalists and the National Association of Hispanic Journalists during their annual conference in Washington.
No more than 1 time in 20 should chance variations in the sample cause the results to vary by more than plus or minus 3.8 percentage points from the answers that would be obtained if all adults age 18-30 in the US were polled. And, in that struggle, the most immediate task we face is to defeat Donald Trump.
The email controversy has continued to dog Clinton’s presidential campaign, particularly as she suffers from the widespread perception among voters that she isn’t honest or trustworthy.
Meanwhile, in a sect of southwest, PA (in counties around Pittsburgh), Trump has a 23% lead over Clinton.
Just before the clip that Trump pulled out, Clinton was talking about the “loopholes and special breaks” in the tax code that benefit the rich and worsen income inequality.
Epic-MRA polled 600 likely voters between July 30 and August 4.
This isn’t to say that Trump is zooming back out to some sort of massive lead, but there’s a key phrase to read in the first sentence of the second paragraph of that excerpted section.
Despite the disenchantment, young adults across racial and ethnic groups are mostly unfamiliar with their alternatives. And while the latest report from the Bureau of Labor Statistics shows the national unemployment rate at 4.9 percent in July, the African-American and Latino unemployment rates were 8.4 percent and 5.4 percent, respectively.
Obama’s own approval rating has risen 4 percentage points since last month’s Democratic National Convention, to 54%, according to poll numbers reported Thursday by CNN. What this suggests is that young white adults in Georgia are leaving their evangelical churches and as they do so, they’re leaving Republicanism. In other words, 80 percent of Democrats backed Carter while 89 percent of Republicans voted for Gerald Ford – a 9-point difference – but Carter won. It remains to be seen whether the American people understand the biased coverage and will overlook it.
Asked if they feel more or less safe living in America than they did five to 10 years ago, 57 percent of Floridians said less safe, 11 percent more safe, and 28 percent said there was no change.
Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign released an ad Friday featuring several prominent Republicans raising concerns over Donald Trump’s recent statements on foreign policy.
Since Republicans lost the White House in 2012, the party has trying to be reaching out to young voters, but they have failed to do so with Donald Trump as their candidate, the latest polls show.
Emiliano Vera, 22, of Bushnell, Ill., said he intends to leave the Democratic Party that attracted him with Barack Obama’s nomination in 2008. Ideology this year drew him to Sanders. But the future, he says, is a different picture.
Rachel Mace, 20, is an example of the challenge faced by Democrats and Clinton in particular.
