Hillary Clinton comes out ahead by 10 points in a new poll of likely voters nationwide from Fairleigh Dickinson University.

Clinton bests Donald Trump in the ballot, 50-40, in a head-to-head match.

The former Secretary of State maintains the 10-point lead from Fairleigh Dickinson University’s last poll in late July, where she led Trump 42-32, with Libertarian Gary Johnson behind at 9 percent.

The Fairleigh Dickinson University poll was conducted via automated telephone poll Sept. 28-Oct. 2 among 788 likely voters nationwide, with a margin of error of plus or minus 4.4 percent.

TPM’s PollTracker Average for the general election shows Clinton leading Trump, 47 to 41.

    Any word on the “big Assange announcement” yet? Or has that ship sailed?

  2. Weirdly, they polled the VP candidates against the POTUS candidates. Is that normal?

    Clinton beats Pence 47 to 46, while Kaine crushes Trump 55 to 39.

    In a sane world, Clinton would be ahead by 88. There are always 12 percent who are just plain stupid.

  4. I’m glad to see Hillary is healthy enough to ride a bicycle to campaign events now.
