ABC NEWS Poll: Clinton Unpopularity at New High, on Par With Trump
ABC NEWS ^ | 8-31-2016 | By GREGORY HOLYK and GARY LANGER

Hillary Clinton’s unpopularity reached a new high in the latest ABC News/Washington Post poll, putting her on par with Donald Trump among registered voters.

The latest findings solidify their positions as the two most unpopular presidential candidates in polling dating back more than 30 years.

Among all adults, 56 percent now view Clinton unfavorably, up 6 percentage points in three weeks, compared to 63 percent who say the same about Trump.

Among registered voters, the two candidates have near-identical unfavorable ratings: 59 percent for Clinton vs. 60 percent for Trump.

I love a net-approvals poll without an actual horserace release..

If Hillary’s net favorables are +1 with Registered voters, I wonder why.... That would be one ugly-assed poll for the DNC Press narrative, even if special sauced.

It will be very interesting to see how this translates for the horse race numbers in this poll. I’m guessing a dead heat?

-- How is that? She hasn't said anything in over a month. It's not even like she's campaigning. It's when she opens her mouth when her ratings go down. --

There has been a steady drip of e-mail news, in addition to the steady beat of criticism from Trump. She hasn't addressed any of that.

My dictionary tells me what the word “politician” means ...
Meaning number 2 reads ... “2. a person skilled or experienced in practical politics or political science.” ... And that ain’t Trump

I think everyone knows if they are tied or close in this, Trump is the default.

If the media was covering her honestly and not covering for her, her negatives would be well above 70 percent.

Just as Obama was the most America hating candidate in history. Hillary is the most corrupt.

Yeah, this free speech nonsense is so overrated.

I get in trouble on Facebook a lot.

what looks good is that the sick witch is hiding and her likeability is falling hard. She used to be able to hide and her numbers would get beter..but no more

As Trump flushes her out from her medicated sick stupor,people will not like her even more.

Hillary has earned every bit of her unpopularity by her behavior. Trump has earned about 10% of his that way, and the rest is caused by constant media lies and half-truths about him.

I tried to express my opinion on ABC comments but I have been banned...oh well.

I get that same display when I try to post to Breitbart. I've emailed them to ask why and never got the courtesy of a reply.

It must be the discus system or comments system that is applied across the board. Pretty wild. Centralized command

Look folks, The legislature in Brazil has just overwhelmingly, impeached their “crooked, criminal” President and threw her out of offce in full disgrace and shame. The same should happen here in the USA to “Crooked, Criminal, Hillary Clinton”!!!

DUH!.. The unpopularity number delta claim that its a major play why Trump will lose has been garbage from day one.. .we aren’t talking an election where Trump favorability is in the 30s and Hillary’s is in the 50s... we are talking about 2 candidates who’s favorability ratings have always been just a few points apart, so the argument that Trump can’t win because he’s got higher unfavorables has been nonsense from day 1.

All Trump needs to do is come out of the debates not looking like he’s an unreasonable risk to most Americans and the race is over. Hillary will try her best to make him look bad, and I think she will fail miserably. As long as Trump does this, he wins, and wins handily.

And she will say nothing. She doesn’t have to when the media is doing the work for her.

I participate in other forums through Discus and have no problem with them. The display says I am banned by Breitbart. I'd like to know why.

Looks like Hillary’s campaign did not give ABC their tribute this week.
