Six Numbers That Show Why Clinton Is Still the Favorite in 2016

The 2016 general election race is now a virtual tie. Hillary Clinton is reeling from more negative headlines about her use of a private email server, while Donald Trump careens from news cycle to news cycle as fact-checkers scramble to sift through his claims.

And the big question on everyone's lips for the next 160-some days will be: So, who's gonna win?

The most recent NBC News/Wall Street Journal polls shows Clinton clinging to a narrow lead.

But a deep analysis of data from the poll shows that Clinton is still currently the more likely of the two candidates to emerge as the winner when the voting's all over on Nov. 8, 2016.

Chances are Clinton will win in an electoral college landslide. Hypothetical general election match-up polls are historically unreliable.
