Poll: Clinton leads Trump by just 4 points despite lewd comments

By POLITICO Staff

10/16/16 12:14 AM EDT

Donald Trump has lost little support since the first presidential debate, despite days of damaging news stories about his treatment of women, according to a new poll.

Hillary Clinton leads Trump 47 percent to 43 percent among likely voters in a four-way race, according to the latest ABC News/Washington Post national poll. Libertarian nominee Gary Johnson trails with 5 percent and the Green Party’s Jill Stein is at 2 percent.

In the previous ABC/Post poll, taken before the Sept. 26 debate, Clinton led Trump 46 percent to 44 percent.

Someone should remind Politico that 4 points could mean an electoral college wipeout.

The race for least-worst remains tight.

The continued narrowness of Clinton's lead over Trump is a useful index of just how unappealing a candidate she has been.

Nearly any other Democrat would by now be picking out curtains and paintings for the Oval Office.

Of course, if Trump were not the GOP nominee, the same would be true for the Republican standard bearer.
"The most terrifying force of death, comes from the hands of Men who wanted to be left Alone. They try, so very hard, to mind their own business and provide for themselves and those they love. They resist every impulse to fight back, knowing the forced and permanent change of life that will come from it. They know, that the moment they fight back, their lives as they have lived them, are over. -Alexander Solzhenitsyn

Yup.  Strangest election I've ever seen.   How can the process work to nominate two people who we all dislike and distrust, who we all know to be of manifest moral unfitness?    And at the same time prevent alternative voices from breaking through?    I know that most of us hate the mainstream media,  and have various reasons for doing so,  but here's mine - they kept Gary Johnson out of the debates.   Screw the mainstream media for perpetuating a two party system that gives us such choices,  and insists that if we don't pick one of the assigned moral cretins,  then we've just thrown our vote away.

Poll: Clinton, Trump in statistical dead heat

Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton leads Republican nominee Donald Trump by just 4 points in a new national poll, within its margin of error.

ADVERTISEMENT
Clinton leads Trump, 47 percent to 43 percent, among likely voters in the Washington Post-ABC News poll released early Sunday. Libertarian nominee Gary Johnson has 5 percent support, and the Green Party’s Jill Stein has 2 percent.

In a two-way race, Clinton maintains a 4-point lead over Trump, 50 percent to 46 percent.

In a similar poll just before the first presidential debate of 2016 in late September, Clinton led Trump by 2 points in a four-way race, 46 percent to 44 percent.

Most other polls have Trump losing by statistically significant margins.

It's both hilarious and yet a little sad....

observing Trump supporters claim, on one hand, that the polls either don't matter or are all 'rigged' in favor of Hillary....

even while they desperately post the one (or two) polls they can find where Trump is only behind Hillary "within the margin of error" of that poll.

No quarter given to the enemy within...ever.

By comparison, Romney lost by 3.9%.  Trump can't even match the guy he called a choker, even when paired against the devil's mother in law.
