October 19, 2016 - Clinton Tops Trump By 7 Points, Quinnipiac University National Poll Finds

Source: Quinnipiac Polling Institute

Republican Donald Trump's lead among men and white voters all but vanishes as Democrat Hillary Clinton takes a 47 - 40 percent likely voter lead, with 7 percent for Libertarian Party candidate Gary Johnson and 1 percent for Green Party candidate Jill Stein, according to a Quinnipiac University national poll released today.

This compares to a 45 - 40 percent Clinton lead in an October 7 survey by the independent Quinnipiac (KWIN-uh-pe-ack) University.

Today, men are divided with 43 percent for Trump and 41 percent for Clinton. Women back Clinton 52 - 37 percent.

White voters go 45 percent for Trump and 41 percent for Clinton, while non-white voters back Clinton 63 - 25 percent.

In a head-to-head, two-way race, Clinton tops Trump 50 - 44 percent.

Translation-->Only 51% believe the women!!



..........American likely voters believe 51 - 31 percent that Trump assaulted several women.
Democrats believe it 84 - 5 percent and independent voters believe it 45 - 34 percent. Republicans don't believe it 56 - 22 percent.

"Donald Trump made the charge, and American likely voters agree: There IS a media bias against the GOP contender," said Tim Malloy, assistant director of the Quinnipiac University Poll.

"But does that explain his lackluster standing with his core base?"
