Washington (CNN) — Hillary Clinton's edge over Donald Trump is dwindling in New Hampshire, a new Monmouth University poll shows.
Clinton leads the GOP nominee by 4 percentage points, within the poll's 4.9-point margin of error and an apparent decrease from the 9-point edge she enjoyed in Monmouth's September survey.

Doesn’t need anything else if he gets 269. Then the House gives him the presidency. Luckily it’s not the Senate, where #nevertrumper Repubs would probably give it to Clinton.
Yeah I know. I’d rather Trump take 270+ outright then have them weasels in Congress hand it to him.
I’m in one of those Christian Conservative states and Trump/Pence signs are popping up all over the place!
Has Maine ever split its EVs?
I’m sure he’ll win the Bible Belt but I just wonder if his margins will be a little less than usual and potentially shave down that popular vote. Utah is the religious state that could lose him the most popular vote due to the 3rd party guy making a play there.
In 2012 Obama won New Hampshire 52% to 46%.
Trump can win it.
Maine’s never split the vote, but I don’t know how close the vote has been by CD. Wondering what’s the closest they came to splitting.
Since it’s never happened though, I’d tend to rule out the possibility, which makes Trump getting one of those three crucial.
Everybody I know here is voting Trump. The only Democratic sign I have seen around here was my neighbor in 2012 but I’m not even sure about him. He had an Obama sign in the yard around Halloween right under white sheeted ghosties hanging in his maple tree. So far no sign this year in his yard.
I don’t know , but it is a very good chance takes CD 2. I believe I’ve seen Trump over Hellary by at least 11% in CD 2 Maine.
And Trump is heading back to Maine soon ...this Friday.
Good grief, if it is up to Paul Ryan to decide, he will go for Hillary!
IOW Trump suddenly (heh) has several routes to the White House.
Bush did much better in CO than NH. Bush won CO by 8 points (Nader was big there for some reason), then 4 points. Bush lost NH to Kerry and was only 2 points ahead of Gore.
Obama won both CO and NH by about the same margin, doing slightly better in 2008 in NH.
NH has its own unique character, so hard to say if Trump is the type of candidate who would overperform there or not. CO’s trend line towards the Dems is disturbingly sharp, so it’s hard to say if it’s become unwinnable now.
Either way, Trump really needs to tailor a message to those 2 states. I doubt Maine is going to split, so he really needs one of them.
I sure won’t count on those GOPe traitors in the House of Reps. to give Trump the win, should it come to that.
Fortunately, I don’t think it will.
Well, it is supposed to be the “Live Free or Die” state

Good, NH may just matter in the electoral calculus.
If lefty, corrupt pollsters can’t slant it enough for Hellary, gives me no doubt she is losing Maine CD 2.
I believe NH would be the perfect size fish. I have Trump at 266 EV's. Assuming Trump has OH, FL, NV, NV an IA, then NH would put him at 270.
It’s not a straight vote, it’s 1 vote per state. We have well over 30 states with majority Repubs in the house, so it should be a cakewalk even if 1 out of every 5 of them defected to Hellary.
His campaign strategy should ignore the media polls, it is propaganda and he knows it: #RiggedSystem
