Poll: Clinton Leads Trump By 10 PointsA new national poll released Friday shows Hillary Clinton leading Donald Trump by ten points nationally.
Clinton is ahead of Trump 50 percent to 40 percent in a head-to-head match-up, according to a poll commissioned by End Citizens United, a liberal-leaning public interest group working to rid large money from politics.
In a four-way race with Libertarian Party candidate Gary Johnson and Green Party candidate Jill Stein, Clinton's lead is reduced to eight points. Clinton receives 45 percent to Trump's 37 percent. Johnson polls at eight percent and Stein at four percent.
As concerns grow about Trump's drag on Republicans running down ballot, this poll shows there's reason for concern. Democrats lead Republicans when asked which party they' d vote for in a Congressional race by seven points: 48 - 41 percent.

(47 posts)I think we did a good job of defining Trump this summer (well, actually Trump did a whole mess of that himself!). I'm just getting uncomfortable with Trump's seeming to pivot.

(10,893 posts)he'll just fake it for a few days or a few weeks, reading from teleprompters (despite mocking a certain president for doing that) and going with his "softer" tone. He'll be back to his usual self probably long before November. The only thing to worry about is how much the news media will act like he's genuinely going in a different direction.

I listen to hate radio sometimes. They are terrified, which is a good thing. It will be interesting to see the polls after Labor Day, when more people are really paying attention.
