The presumptive GOP presidential nominee has 43 percent support among likely U.S. voters, and Clinton has 39 percent, according to the conservative-leaning Rasmussen.

Another 12 percent of respondents say they liked another candidate, and 5 percent are undecided.

In a similar poll last week, Clinton led Trump by 5 points, 44 percent to 39 percent.

This week's poll shows Trump's highest level of support against Clinton since last October.

The poll also finds that 75 percent of Republicans and 14 percent of Democrats support for Trump. The presumptive Democratic nominee has the support of 76 percent of Democrats and 10 percent of Republicans.

What states were flipped Rep to Dem by principled Repubs who stayed home?

Good question and I don't have the answer - I guess it's OK to act like our "Representatives" if we can rationalize that our vote really doesn't count....deniability is all that really counts....Right?

Willard was never going to win. He was a ringer for Zero, same as McQueeg. There to ensure his reelection.

Perhaps, perhaps not - but we did help him lose.

You came to the wrong guy to find out something positive Obama has done. “:^)

We’re in agreement on that.

The man was unqualified to begin with, and it went down from there.

“We” did not. He did. The party establishment did. The joke that these are legit elections with legit choices. Fixed frauds are what they are, done by the ruling class.

Noted.

You don't think Trump is a legitimate choice? He came from out of the Blue, is not establishment - in fact had to fight the establishment really hard - and got more of the People's votes in the Primaries than anyone we've ever had.

Mrs. Bill won’t like to hear this. Lamps will be flying today wherever she can find one.

George Will, Paul Ryan-o, M. Romney, and M. McC represent 10 percent of the party.

[Theodore R.]

probably FL, IA, and VA

Oh, I didn’t mean to imply Trump isn’t a legit choice. Probably the first since 1980/1984. The party establishment hysteria surrounding his candidacy demonstrates he was not the puppet they wanted.

Florida
2004 Bush 3,964,522
2008 McCain 4,046,219
2012 Romney 4,163,447

There is no statistical case that conservatives ‘staying home’ made any difference at all.

Thanks for the clarification - it didn’t seem like you to be that kind of pessimistic about Trump.
