West Long Branch, NJ - The race for Nevada's electoral votes has flipped from two months ago, with Donald Trump now holding a slim 2 point lead over Hillary Clinton, whereas Clinton held a 4 point lead in July's Monmouth University Poll . In the U.S. Senate contest, Republican Joe Heck clings to a narrow 3 point lead over Democrat Catherine Cortez Masto, virtually unchanged from his earlier 2 point lead.
Among Silver State voters likely to participate in November's presidential election, 44% currently support Trump and 42% back Clinton. Another 8% intend to vote for Libertarian Gary Johnson and 3% say they will choose Nevada's unique "none of these candidates" ballot option. Monmouth's July poll found Clinton leading Trump by 45% to 41%, with Johnson at 5% and none of the above at 4%. Green Party candidate Jill Stein will not appear on the ballot in Nevada.
Among self-identified Republicans, 88% support Trump, which is identical to his 88% support in July. Among Democrats, 90% support Clinton, which is similar to her 92% support in July. Independents have shifted, however, now giving Trump a clear 43% to 29% advantage over Clinton, with 17% supporting Johnson. Two months ago, the independent vote was divided at 39% for Trump, 37% for Clinton, and 10% for Johnson.
"The race in Nevada is still tight, but the momentum has swung toward Trump," said Patrick Murray, director of the independent Monmouth University Polling Institute.
Clinton still has a sizable lead among non-white voters - 63% to 28% for Trump, which is down slightly from her 64% to 23% lead among this group in July. The Republican nominee retains his lead among white voters, now standing at 51% to 33%, which is up slightly from 49% to 37% two months ago.

And on it goes...
I moved to Reno to buy a gun. Guess my vote is unnecessary.
Mr Trump and Dr Heck (running for dingy Harry’s open seat) will win our state by much more than 2 points, that I will tell you.
Funny, they never refer to a two-point Hillary lead as slim. I hate the media.
Good to hear!
Looks like Trump might have the big mo’
If the party labels were reversed, it would be "Democrat Hero Catherine Cortez added to her solid lead against controversial Republican fringe candidate Joe Heck, adding 50 percentage points to her already commanding advantage."
And Trump is leading in Colorado(Which is surprising because Colorado was always a leaning Dem state) and he’s leading in Ohio, so seriously what else is left..if Trump does well in the debate HELLO MR. PRESIDENT
Hopefully this is not useful idiots saying one thing one way to vote another way......
KYPD
Exactly!! I’m sure he’ll win way more, but if he wins CO, NV, IA, FL, and OH, it’s OVER. He wouldn’t even need PA, but again I have a feeling he’s going to win PA along with some others.
This is hugh and series.
Monmouth is one of the early cheaters, and notoriously left.
So based on polling now, OH, NV, IA, and even CO would be in Trump’s column. I had NEVER done math with CO in it, so that makes the equations different. Obviously, VA or PA is good, but with CO and IA, that’s 12 EVs that I had not counted on and, I think, offsets VA, right?
lol
Trump pulls ahead in Colorado.
Trump pulls ahead in Nevada.
Trump pulls ahead in Maine.
Trump pulls further ahead Nationally.
I am sensing an impending landslide !
And lets not forget CT..Ive seen posts here from people who live in CT and think that Trump can win it..if Trump wins CT go order a pizza its over folks
Trump +14 with indies. Say goodnight.
Where did you see a CO poll?
