Hillary Clinton leads Trump by 4 points, 44-40, in a four-way matchup among likely voters, according to a new Wall Street Journal/NBC News poll released Sunday.
In the four-way contest, 82 percent of Republican likely voters support Trump and 82 percent of Democratic likely voters support Clinton, with the former secretary of state taking a narrow 2-point lead among independent likely voters, according to the survey.
Clinton also leads Trump by 12 points among respondents who said they had already voted, 51-39.
Her lead is narrower than in the last WSJ/NBC poll released on Oct. 11 when she led Trump by 9 points, 46-37, among likely voters in a four-way matchup.
TPM’s PollTracker Average shows Clinton leading Trump nationally 46.4-42.7.
The poll surveyed 1,282 likely voters from Nov. 2-5, with a margin of error of plus or minus 2.73 percentage points.
So ABC by 5 and NBC/WSJ by 4. Let’s not get overly confident, folks, though the news is good. Let’s get her to the finish line. There is no alternative.
It won’t matter. Once the electors certify it, it’s a done deal. The country will move on and he can yell into the wind for all anyone will care.
Unfortunately, you are right. I hope many of Trump’s followers will just slink back into the holes out of which they crawled. As I told my Canadian sister-in-law last night, whoever wins this election, the next four years will be difficult. But they’ll be far better with President Hillary than they would be with President Donald.
It is not the American Democrats who are praying for a Hillary victory…
It’s NATO as well.
and about 5 or 6 billion other folks.
Also tracking polls have been moving in her favor, and if you consider they are typically 5 day averages and they still include some days right past Comey-Gate it must show the newest samples are trending her way. Depends on how strongly.
I wonder if she will regain a 5-7% advantage by election day (the same realistic margin she has had for a long time now ignoring wild up/down swings).
