Hillary Clinton has taken a nine-point lead over Donald Trump, in both head-to-head and third party inclusive races, in the latest NBC/Wall Street Journal poll.

The poll, conducted among registered voters nationally, shows Clinton leading, 47-38.

With third party candidates included, Clinton still leads Trump by nine points, 43-34, with Libertarian Gary Johnson polling at 10 percent and Green Party candidate Jill Stein at 5 percent.

The Democratic nominee increased her lead over Trump by four points since the last NBC/WSJ poll, conducted in early July.

This poll was conducted over the phone among 800 national registered voters on July 31-Aug. 3, with a margin of error of plus or minus 3.46 percent.
