Hillary Clinton holds a 10-point national lead over Donald Trump with less than three weeks remaining in the race for the White House, according to a Colby College-Boston Globe poll released Wednesday.

Clinton, who will face Trump in Las Vegas on Wednesday night in their third and final debate, garners 46 percent to Trump’s 36 percent. Libertarian nominee Gary Johnson draws 5 percent, while Green Party standard-bearer Jill Stein gets 2 percent.


Eleven percent said they were undecided.

The poll comes as Trump has increasingly sought to cast doubt on the validity of the election, suggesting — without any evidence — that the vote could be rigged and lumping national Republican leaders such as House Speaker Paul Ryan in with the news media as complicit in a grand scheme.
