New Arizona poll (CNN): Trump 43 - Clinton 38

Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton are neck and neck in North Carolina, a state solidifying its position as a perennial presidential election battleground, while Trump holds a 5-point lead in the traditionally GOP-tilting state of Arizona, according to new CNN/ORC battleground state polls.

Trump is the choice of 43% of registered voters in Arizona, while Clinton stands at 38%, followed by Libertarian candidate Gary Johnson at 12% and Green Party nominee Jill Stein at 4%. In North Carolina, Clinton stands at 44%, Trump at 43% and Johnson at 11%. Stein will not appear on the ballot there.

I doubt Clinton wins Arizona even if she wins the presidency in a blowout, but this can't be good news for Trump.

anywhere, in any state, whether she appears on the ballot or not.

These small margins matter. 4% can mean everything.

We need loud, firm, clear rebuke; utter humiliation of Trump and his Neo-Klan voter base.
