Hillary Clinton comes out six points ahead of Donald Trump in a new national poll from Quinnipiac University released hours before the final presidential debate.
Clinton leads by six points, 50-44, in the head-to-head match among likely voters nationally.
When third party candidates are included, her lead expands to seven points, 47-40, with Libertarian Gary Johnson polling at 7 percent and Green Party candidate Jill Stein at 1 percent.
Clinton maintains a +6 lead in the head-to-head match nationally from Quinnipiac’s last poll conducted in early October. In the four-way race, the former Secretary of State has expanded her lead slightly, from +5 earlier this month to +7 today.
The Quinnipiac University poll was conducted via live telephone interviews on Oct. 17-18 among 1,007 likely voters nationwide, and has a margin of error of plus or minus 3.1 percent.
TPM’s PollTracker Average for the general election shows Clinton leading Trump, 47 to 41.4.
If its Quinnipiac you can bet the numbers should actually be about 2 points higher for Hillary. Just sayin’…
