Title: "Trump Leads Clinton Nationally and in Four States Polled; 3 of 4 Senate Incumbents Look Safe; Pneumonia News Hurting Clinton"
BOSTON, MA - In the first national poll conducted by Emerson College during this general election season, the presidential race is looking like a dead heat, with Donald Trump edging out Hillary Clinton 43% to 41%, well within the polls 3.4% margin of error (MOE). Libertarian candidate Gary Johnson holds 9% of the popular vote, and the Green Partys Jill Stein gets 2%.
Eight in 10 (81%) of voters surveyed nationally were aware that Clinton was recently diagnosed with pneumonia, a revelation that appears to be hurting her with some voters.
In four state-level polls released at the same time as the national poll, Trump leads by 4 points in Colorado (42% to 38%), 6 points in Georgia (45% to 39%), 13 points in Missouri (47% to 34%) and has a blowout-level lead in Arkansas, 57% to 29%.
U.S. Senate races in three of the four states polled show the incumbents with a solid lead over their challengers. In Arkansas, GOP Senator John Boozman has a 14-point edge over Democrat Conner Eldridge, 44% to 30%. Georgia Republican Johnny Isakson leads Jim Barksdale 48% to 32%, and Colorados Democratic incumbent, Michael Bennet is running 7 points ahead of Darryl Glenn, 46% to 39%. Missouri is the exception, with Democrat Jason Kander holding a 2-point edge over GOP incumbent Roy Blunt, 42% to 40%.

Hillary’s going to lose Arkansas? Where she presided as First bag Lady (bag man?) for multiple terms? Won’t anyone vote for her on the Whitewater development?
You mean giving cigarettes to the homeless and driving them to the voting station?
Have faith enjoy and the Trump Train ride...
Trump is like Leonidas....takes no prisoners....and sports a Mullet
I think there should be NO moderators..that way no bias can be accused by either side..let them both talk, debate each other..the moderators only bring their biases into debates and I am frankly sick of it
But...but...Sheila Jackson Lee said Hillary will carry Texas!
Yeah, sure....and Pamela Anderson is a virgin.
Please DJT, you magnificent bastard, please don’t blow this by saying something the press can blow out of proportion for 2 weeks. Prayers for strong debate performances. Be prepared for “moderator” sabotage.
Colorados Democratic incumbent, Michael Bennet is running 7 points ahead of Darryl Glenn, 46% to 39%
Thats close enough for Trump to pull Glenn over the finish line.
Sure would like to see it happen!
Unfortunately, Glenn has hitched his wagon to the loser Cruzers. Had he been more vocally Pro-Trump and anti-Never Trump he would probably have a much closer race.
In the National Poll, Trump has 17% of the Black Vote
Sabato is a pimp.
Correct, and her hit on Pepe woke some of them up :)
Second poll with a lead in CO! I had written off the Pot State.
No talk like that! Yes, it's great to see Trump on the upswing. But, the polls are still tight. We have a month and a half to election day. The media and Illary campaign will double down on destroying Trump. we have to be diligent and not let our guard down. This is far from over and the Witch has plenty of time to recover and sucker all those mushy “moderate” voters back in.
Maybe the Razorbacks are trying to pay penance for launching the Clintoids. They are saying, “Stop, while you can!”. All of this could have been avoided if they had elected Lynn Lowe governor in 1978.
Bubba will need an air traffic controller for ash trays and lamps on November 9th.
Sigh, again, let me say this one more time...
Hillary has a functional max of 42/43 in the polls that’s it. They can not attract one more person to vote for her. She has the people who will vote D no matter what, that’s it.
Demonizing Trump doesn’t work, it won’t get her one more vote.
If anything Hillary will start attacking Johnson after realizing, at least according to the polls he’s taking votes from her.
She has everyone who’s going to vote for her.
Fight hard don’t quit but don’t think for one minute she’s got a rebound coming.
From day one, the only person who can beat Trump is Trump.
Blowout in Arkansas! The people who know her best!
