Donald Trump gained on Hillary Clinton among American voters this week, cutting her lead nearly in half despite a string of women accusing him of unwanted sexual advances and the furor over his disputed claims that the election process is rigged, according to a Reuters/Ipsos poll released on Friday.
The survey also showed that 63 percent of Americans, including a third of Republicans, believe the New York real estate mogul has committed sexual assault in the past, though the Republican presidential candidate has denied the recent accusations.
Clinton, the Democratic former secretary of state, led Trump 44 percent to 40 percent, according to the Oct. 14-20 poll, a 4-point lead, with the Nov. 8 election fast approaching. That compared with 44 percent for Clinton and 37 percent for Trump in the Oct. 7-13 poll released last week.
Clintons lead also shrank in a separate four-way poll that included alternative party candidates: 43 percent supported her, while 39 percent supported Trump, 6 percent supported Libertarian candidate Gary Johnson, and 2 percent supported Jill Stein of the Green Party.

Here we go... Getting near the end of October and so the polls need to get closer to reality or they lose whatever credibility that remains.
Any poll that doesnt ask about hrc issues and just Trump, is sh:t
Noticed that too..they still won’t give it to trump BUT WE KNOW THE TRUTH!!! Wednesday’s debate was a God send..it HELPED trump...YUGELY!!!
So, someone who is controlling the race can’t get to 45%? Sure!
Al-reuters does not have an objective bone in its entire organization. Being based in London, are they subject to Sharia?
Yup - damn those bitter clingers! They aren’t as easily duped as the rest of the lemmings.
Does a bunch of Hillary Loving Talking Heads getting all excited about this non-issue and Fox News salivating over how great Chris, the now and always and forever a Hillary Supporter, Wallace did as debate moderator qualify as a "furor"?
Just asking.
Any conservative who is voting for anyone other than Trump is helping Hillary.
Need to keep this in mind. Protest votes are helping Hillary.
So, get out and VOTE TRUMP!
CNN just claimed that the beast is up in both AZ and GA..Lies are one thing, but these are stupid lies!
Pfft.. for someone that’s been declared the winner the bitch can’t even attract flies to aher rally today!!!! I’ve heard she had an estimate about under 1000 at a community college rally! That is so incredibly sad! this witch ain’t got no enthusiasm or charm nor charismatic zippo ! I just finished viewing trumps rally and the people are stroked! The rallies that Hillary has the people are not engaging!
There was no furor. There’s only a fuhrer, and she wears a pantsuit.
Interesting. The separate question on “sexual assault” was asked of 1915 “adults” but only 546 likely Republocans. So in other words, fully 2/3 of the population for that question were either Democrats, independents, non-citizens, or others whereby their voting status could not be determined. Talk about skewing a poll.
Good news.
Trump is gaining in part because he is back on he attack and talking about the issues people care about instead of fending off false accusations. The only hope “they” have is to jam Trump’s message.
If we can keep the election on the issues we will win. And public corruption and accountability is one big honking issue.
So a push-poll couldn’t even hide the decline.
They keep ramping up Ds and Hillary is up by only a few points??
In reality, she’s well behind. I voted for Trump today.
And I imagine enthusiasm among his voters, which the polls don’t capture, is off the charts.
