Still, the majority of them (55%) say that they eventually foresee Clinton winning the presidential polls in November, while 38% foresee Trump’s success.

While 37% of the registered voters are staunchly on Clinton’s side, 33% of the voters are firmly Trump supporters.
Laying the groundwork, Clinton’s campaign seized on a report Monday by Moody’s Analytics which found Trump’s plans would lead to a “lengthy recession”, costing almost 3.5 million American jobs. Overall averages put Clinton’s advantage a little higher. Presumptive Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton, the former US secretary of state, had $42.5 million.
Clinton’s campaign reported $42 million in cash on hand. On that count, Trump’s numbers look even worse. Ben Carson, whose bid for the GOP nomination ended in early March, had $1.8 million in his campaign fund. The billionaire businessman lent his effort another $2.2 million, bringing his total outlay over the past year to about $46 million.
As Donald Trump heads into the general election, Hillary Clinton has 40 times more money and 10 times more staff, new election filings have revealed.
Since 1960, no candidate has won the presidential race without taking at least two of the three states.
The party began June with about $20 million in the bank and $7 million in debt.
Stein and Johnson hold particular appeal among those Democrats and Republicans who would rather see their party nominate someone other than the presumptive nominee, with Johnson holding 16% among those Republicans and Republican-leaners who would prefer to nominate someone other than Trump, and Stein at 18% among those Democrats and Democratic-leaners who favor Sanders. You can blamed the mainstream media for turning against Mr. Trump (which it undoubtedly has), but he’s also exacerbated the situation with many unforced errors.
Clinton’s Tuesday address in OH, one of the nation’s most prominent swing states, will aim to place a marker on the economy in a similar manner in which she did on foreign policy earlier this month with a searing takedown of Trump in San Diego. “And I feel that, no matter what he does on the fundraising front, he’s going to be at a huge financial disadvantage”, he said, explaining that it typically takes candidates two years to build fundraising operations.
Meanwhile, Sanders – whose chances of winning the nomination went from slim to virtually nil after his losses in NY and a series of other Eastern states in April – reported raising $16.4 million in May, well below Clinton’s $26.3 million but more than five times what Trump raised. As CNN reports, “Interviews with more than a dozen donors, party, campaign and congressional officials make clear the concerns have moved beyond bruised feelings over personal slights – and even beyond the top donors who simply won’t give to the NY billionaire”. He gave $25,000. Douglas Kimmelman, an investment manager at Energy Capital Partners, gave $50,000. But the billionaire businessman did not decide on removing him until after a Monday morning meeting with his eldest son, Donald Jr., 39, who along with his siblings Ivanka, 34; and Eric, 33; had grown increasingly anxious about their father’s political campaign.
The analysis by Moody’s Mark Zandi, a Clinton donor and former economic adviser to Republican Sen. Bernie Sanders, and she spent about $14 million, the May report shows. The next day, Clinton heads to Raleigh, North Carolina, where she plans to offer a detailed outline of her own economic platform.

Clinton has raised more than $211 million since the presidential race and seems to have momentum in the race if the latest general election polls are any indication.
