NEW YORK, June 3 (Reuters) - Democratic presidential contender Hillary Clinton has opened up a double-digit lead over Republican rival Donald Trump, regaining ground after the New York billionaire briefly tied her last month, according to a Reuters/Ipsos poll released on Friday.
The shift in support comes as Clinton steps up her attacks on the real estate mogul's policy positions, and as Trump fends off criticisms of his eponymous university and the pace at which he doled out money that he raised for U.S. veterans.
Some 46 percent of likely voters said they supported Clinton, while 35 percent said they supported Trump, and another 19 percent said they would not support either, according to the survey of 1,421 people conducted between May 30 and June 3.

“I know nobody supporting Hillary Clinton. “
My next door neighbors have “We are ready for Hillary” regalia all over the place. I asked them to name 2 things she has done that qualifies her for the Oval office. They couldn’t name one thing.
Clinton voters are mindless zombies. I think she is treated the same way everyone in the media treated John Gotti. He ran a criminal empire, but because he had great fireworks shows on the 4th, he was a man for the community.
He must of have been dropped on his head or is an LSD addict.
Yup. He’s peaked and will begin his downfall shortly. Expect him to drop out by July.
Here in Reno, I have not noticed hardly any Hitlary bumper stickers, seen a lot of Bern’s though....I can’t wait until Hitlary is picked over the Bern
Trump is going to have to do his internal polling as the liberal media bias is too high to rely upon.
dropped on his head maybe but lsd addict? Nah, he’s retired and is a multi-millionaire several times over. His kids have 7 figure trust funds, EACH.
I can’t explain it.
Unfortunately this is probably the reality being that he’s not getting any non-white votes and the Never Trump movement, though small is making a difference. Every second of the day is spent distorting the facts by those on television and radio news to the point where I can not find any unbiased coverage at all.
Trump is not going to win this through the media back and forth and had better step up his ad’s and get in general election mode quickly otherwise he’s going to find himself on the defensive when he needs to control the narrative.
Thanks.
I believe so too.
I still don’t understand the poll sample; 3 Dems for every 2 Reps is simply not the case, never saw it in any other poll. I see the BS on the awful AOL site every day — Hillary is shown as 30 years younger, smiling and her news is always good; Trump is shown snarling, angry with orange hair and the “news” is always bad.
Please, God
This figures. The poll is worthless.
Dems are polled 20% more than Republicans and 62% over Indies.
“They’re not always right on the money. I mean this year all bets are off.”
You would think that would have have adjusted that by now.
Having lots of $$$ does not make one a person of morals or integrity. Liberals perceive they are virtuous but their political philosophy is evil. If you have true faith in God you will see this clearly. If not you are lost.
Wow, a poll showing Clinton wiping Trump out, released right after her “big” foreign policy speech that the MSM told us (breathlessly) was a “game changer.” The poll is also released late on a Friday. Thereafter, said MSM that told us what a game changer the speech was is trumpeting the poll as proof of its own credibility. As a matter of fact, it is the ONE and ONLY poll that counts.
Could the poll be accurate? I suppose it could be accurate, but it sure does stink and seem like a chapter from an awfully familiar playbook. Meanwhile, some other results continue to suggest otherwise for the race:

The internals are highly skewed making it very inaccurate.
Quote: “Yup. He’s peaked and will begin his downfall shortly. Expect him to drop out by July.”
July!?!? Are you nuts, he won’t last through June. No way. He is done.
46% seems dead on for Hillary.
Low would be around 42%.
Wait, it’s already June. I’ll look for the announcement any day now.
I think she may be ahead but it ain’t eleven points, more like three. Otherwise, the Michigan and Florida polls (Clinton up by four) wouldn’t make sense; where would she be pulling out these margins when Trump is leading by double digits in the South, Plains and much of the mountain states? My guess is that this poll was weighted with Dems (cooked) to give Madame some momentum for the California primary.
