Hillary Clinton holds a nine-point lead over Donald Trump in Pennsylvania, according to a new Bloomberg/Selzer poll conducted in the midst of the video release demonstrating Trump’s lewd words about women and the second debate.
Clinton leads in the swing state, 51-42, among likely voters. She maintains a nine-point lead when third-party candidates are included, 48-39, with Libertarian Gary Johnson at 6 percent and Green Party candidate Jill Stein at 4 percent.
The former Secretary of State’s lead in this poll is similar to her recent 12-point lead in an NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll conducted just before the video dropped Friday.
Bloomberg/Selzer has not recently polled likely Pennsylvania voters on the general election.
The Bloomberg/Selzer poll was conducted via live telephone interview from Oct. 7-11 among 806 likely Pennsylvania voters, with a margin of error of plus or minus 3.5 percent.
TPM’s PollTracker Average for the general election race in Pennsylvania shows Clinton leading Trump, 49.1 to 39.8.
