“She walked off that stage, of course she had a lot of people around; they had a lot of people around her, which was smart”, Trump said. Trump added in a separate tweet.
And she said her vote for Clinton is “a default”.
About a third of likely voters say they’re less likely to support Clinton following Comey’s disclosure, according to the poll.
That sample included 965 likely women voters and 776 likely white women voters. During her speech she tossed out a laundry list of goals: helping America become a clean energy superpower, raising the national minimum wage, securing women equal pay for equal work, creating affordable child care and paid family leave and addressing student debt.
Both of these polls were conducted before the FBI expressed renewed interest in Hillary Clinton’s emails, after an investigation of Anthony Weiner revealed further room for inquiry on that front late last week. Those emails were not from her server, according to a USA official who was not authorized to discuss details publicly and spoke on condition of anonymity.
“Let’s be real. As our first African-American first lady, she’s faced pressures I never did, and she’s handled them with pure grace”, Clinton said to applause.
While Trump campaigned in OH, a plane carrying his running mate, Indiana Governor Mike Pence, skidded off the runway after landing at New York City’s LaGuardia Airport on Thursday night. “She’s not doing the job”, Trump said as the crowd cheered.
“I think we’re going to have a tremendous victory”, Trump told CNN’s Dana Bash Wednesday.
“I think it has moved some polls”. He also needs significantly depressed enthusiasm among Clinton voters and a poll-defying shock on the scale of Brexit, the surprise British vote this year to quit the European Union.
The presidential race could have big implications for the state government if voters recoiling from Republican nominee Donald Trump hand the state Senate to Democrats.
“The poll numbers are very close here, and there’s nothing in the early-vote numbers to contradict that”, says Michael McDonald, an expert on voter turnout at the University of Florida, Gainesville. Clinton also has a stop in Arizona, a traditionally red state where she sees a possibility.
The poll shows a majority of voters don’t buy Trump’s attempt at equivalence. This week’s leaked messages raised questions about former President Bill Clinton’s finances. That’s despite the fact that 63 percent think Hillary Clinton has probably threatened or undermined women who have accused her husband of sexual misconduct. “But there are states – for all of the talk of Hillary Clinton supposedly going on offense with red states, she’s campaigning in blue states, and we’re making a play for blue states”.
“I would not be here lying to you: I believe with all of my heart that Hillary Clinton will be that president”, she said.
Mook said on NBC’s “Meet the Press” on Sunday that he was “absolutely” confident that Abedin fully complied with the FBI during its original investigation into Clinton’s private server. More than 21 million votes have been cast early in this election, according to calculations made by the U.S. Elections Project. Instead, she’s backing Libertarian Gary Johnson.
Respondents did seem to sympathize, however, with Trump’s recent claims of a “rigged election”, with almost 41 percent of Florida voters saying they agreed there would likely be widespread voting fraud in the actual polling process.
While Clinton leads Trump on qualifications and moral character, she and Trump received similar support in terms of empathy. The good news for the Republican nominee: That margin is much narrower than the 9-point lead Monmouth showed Clinton holding there in September.
