Slight bump for Clinton in battleground states following convention
By Jessie Hellmann
Hillary Clinton saw a small bump in support following the Democratic National Convention last week, a poll released Sunday shows.
The CBS News Battleground Tracker Poll found Clinton, the Democratic presidential nominee, has 43 percent support in 11 battleground states, while GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump has 41 percent support.
In the same poll last week, Trump led Clinton 42 percent to 41 percent.
Clinton's gains came from Democrats who had been undecided before the convention. Virtually no one is going back and forth between Trump and Clinton.
Forty percent of those surveyed said they liked how Democrats described the state of America today during convention speeches, according to the poll, while 45 percent disliked it.
Voters said they would have liked to have heard more about the economy, and 54 percent said they didn't hear enough about changing Washington.
The poll was conducted from July 29 to 30 among 2,211 registered voters in 11 battleground states: Colorado, Florida, Iowa, Michigan, North Carolina, New Hampshire, Nevada, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia and Wisconsin.
