Donald Trump leads Hillary Clinton by three points in the latest poll of likely Ohio voters from Suffolk University. Trump has taken a stable lead in Ohio this week, with four and five-point leads in the swing state from CNN/ORC and Bloomberg respectively.

Trump came out ahead in the Suffolk poll, 42-39, with Libertarian Gary Johnson following at 4 percent, and Green Party candidate Jill Stein and non-party candidate Richard Duncan both polling at 1 percent.

Back in July, the Suffolk University poll of Ohio showed Clinton ahead of the New York businessman, 43-39.

The Suffolk poll was conducted Sept. 12-14 among 500 likely Ohio general election voters, with a margin of error of plus or minus 4.4 percent.

TPM’s PollTracker Average for the election in Ohio shows Trump leading Clinton, 46.6 to 43.4.

    The past couple of weeks have gone about as well as possible for Trump…and a small albeit consistent lead in a swing state is the best he can muster.

    I fully expect, barring a completely unexpected surprise, for Hillary to eventually prevail.

    Getting back on the campaign trail, having the debates, and as the election draws closer, recapturing some of the third party voters, will put her over the top.

    Just my opinion.

  4. Wow, what an implosion by Clinton. I can’t believe this. Republicans gift wrapped the election an Clinton still can’t win. That’s how freaking bad of a candidate she is. I hope you all are happy when she loses. Because this loss will be 100% on you.
