Hillary Clinton maintains a three-point lead over Donald Trump, the same lead she held in July, in a national poll of likely voters by Franklin Pierce University/Boston Herald.

Clinton leads Trump, 44-41, in the poll, with Libertarian Gary Johnson polling at 8 percent and Green Party candidate Jill Stein trailing at 3 percent.

Clinton held the exact same lead, 44-41, in July in the most recent Franklin Pierce University/Boston Herald poll, with Johnson at 7 percent and Stein at 2 percent.

The Franklin Pierce University/Boston Herald poll was conducted by RKM Research from Aug. 31-Sept. 4. The survey included 1,025 national likely voters over the phone, and has a margin of error of plus or minus 3.1 percent.

TPM’s PollTracker Average shows Clinton leading Trump, 46.4 to 44.2.

  1. Trump got a boost from Mexico and latest email stories. I don’t expect either of those to be a lasting influence.
    He is sounding rather desperate and silly today. I wager that he is VERY worried about the Bondi story. When we can verify that only Florida and Texas AGs received Trump donations, I think that pot will boil.

  2. “I KNOW I’ve seen that face before,” Big Jim was saying to himself
    “Maybe down in MEXICO or a picture up on somebody’s shelf…”
