Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump has increased nearly 6 percent to statistically tie with Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton, according to a new poll published Tuesday.
The poll, administered by Red Oak Strategic, shows that previously undecided voters are the biggest cause for the rise, as Trump received a 5.7 percent increase to Clinton’s 3.5 percent.
The poll also showed that Clinton is currently only earning the votes of 70 percent of those who voted for President Barack Obama in 2012, with ten percent of Obama voters planning to cross party lines and vote for Trump.
That’s because the only ones who are crossing over to HRC are named Bush, Powell or Rice and there aren’t that many of them . . .

Yup, Hillary has provided absolutely no incentive for the (clueless) undecideds to come her way. She’s worse off now than before.
Great news! Undecided voters aren’t to be confused with Independent voters, which Trump already holds a commanding lead with.
2012 Romney: 2,112,673
70.7% Obama for Hillary + 3.6% Romney for Hillary =
2016 Hillary: 1,887,327
and 76.1% Romney for Trump + 10.3% Obama for Trump =
2016 Trump: 1,871,620
Trump within 15K votes of Hillary !!!
And that is assuming equal turnout this year to 2012.
If, as we suspect, GOP numbers are up and Rat numbers are down, Trump could very well be in the lead.
