Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump tied going into conventions - CBS/NYT poll
CBS News/New York Times ^ | 7/14/2016 | Sarah Dutton, Jennifer De Pinto, Fred Backus and Anthony Salvanto

The State of the Race Heading into the two parties' conventions, the race for President is a dead heat, a change from last month when Hillary Clinton led by six points. Forty percent of registered voters now say they will back Clinton (a dip of three points), while 40 percent will vote for Trump (a bump up of three points). A month ago, Clinton led Trump 43 to 37 percent.

Most registered voters say they have made up their minds about who to support: 90 percent of Trump voters and 88 percent of Clinton voters say their choice is set. About one in 10 of each's candidates' supporter say their minds might change before the election.

The race looks essentially the same in a three-way contest when Libertarian candidate Governor Gary Johnson is added to the mix. He gets 12 percent of the vote, but Clinton and Trump remain tied, with 36 percent each.

Hillary should be up by 20+ points!

And her being tied in spite of massive advertising in swing states is a bad sign for her.

It ain’t gonna get better because the CW is Trump is gonna lose.

Hillary is down at least 5 at this point... Due to Bradley Effect and Trump attracting disenfranchised voters, I estimate he’s around 5 points higher than most polls will have him.

Disagree with those thinking the MSM are going to paint her as some sort of “Comeback Kid”....I don’t think even her supporters have that much faith in her.

Nate Silver bumping up the number... only last month he declared 80% chance Hillary would be elected - now its down to 67%.

Yup, he has to remain credible.

*BOOM*!!! Encouraging. If its close she’ll have to debate. If Trump debates her and remains “presidential” while hitting his points .... well .... I hope .... dare not say it ....

I wonder what the party affiliation internal breakdown is.

The usual breakdown of NY Times news editors

Whatever they haven’t heard, you can bet Trump will bring up. I get the feeling he is planning something really big behind the scenes that will absolutely obliterate her.

Genoa predicts: two words.
Clinton Foundation.
There’ll be a “pay-to-play exposé,” right about September. A major corruption scandal. I’m thinking maybe Putin will provide an assist.

Yes! I think it will be that as well which is why he is rarely mentioning it, he is going to use that as his atomic bomb. I can just imagine the amount of people he has working on that, probably getting every last scintilla of info on that scam, or what I like to call “The Clinton money laundering foundation”, and knowing Trump, he will probably bring it up during a debate when Hitlery is on the spot in from of millions of people! Oh maaaaaan, it’s going to be beautiful!
