Hillary Clinton comes out of the Democratic convention ahead by nine points, 52-43, in a new CNN/ORC poll, reversing her drop from last week.

The poll, conducted in the three days following the convention, reverses Trump’s three-point lead in a CNN/ORC poll conducted immediately after the Republican National Convention.

Clinton has held a lead over Trump in every other CNN/ORC poll conducted since October.

With third party candidates included, Clinton led with 45 percent, with Trump at 37 percent, Libertarian candidate Gary Johnson at 9 percent, and Green Party candidate Jill Stein polled at 5 percent.

The poll surveyed 894 registered voters over the phone nationally from July 29-31, with a margin of error of plus or minus 3.5 percent.
