Hillary Clinton is tied with Donald Trump in an NBC/WSJ/Marist poll of Ohio following the aftermath of the Trump videos and the second debate.

The two candidates are tied at 45 percent in a head-to-head match among likely voters in the Buckeye state. When third party candidates are included, Trump leads by one point, 42-41, with Libertarian Gary Johnson polling at 9 percent and Green Party candidate Jill Stein at 4 percent.

This latest poll follows another Ohio survey released this week from Baldwin Wallace University, showing Clinton leading Trump by 10 points.

When NBC/WSJ/Marist last polled Ohio in August, Clinton led by five points, 43-38, in a head-to-head match against Trump. She led by three points, 39-35, with third-party candidates included, with Johnson at 12 percent and Stein at 4 percent.

The NBC/WSJ/Marist poll was conducted via live telephone interview on Oct. 10-12 among 724 likely Ohio voters, with a margin of error of plus or minus 3.6 percent.

TPM’s PollTracker Average for the general election in Ohio shows Clinton leading Trump, 46.7 to 42.7.
