Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump leads Democrat Hillary Clinton head-to-head, according to a new poll released Friday.
The poll by SurveyUSA finds that matched up directly, Trump garners 45 percent to Clinton’s 40 percent.
In other head-to-head matchups, Trump beats out Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) by 44 percent to 40 percent; Vice President Joe Biden by 44 percent to 42 percent; and former Vice President Al Gore by 44 percent to 41 percent.
Trump’s surge past Clinton marks a dramatic turnaround in the polls.
A CNN/ORC sampling of national voters in late June — just days after Trump entered the race — found that 59 percent supported Clinton to 34 percent picking Trump in a head-to-head race.
The same poll taken in July saw Clinton at 57 percent to Trump at 38 percent. And a version taken in August had Clinton with 52 percent support and Trump with 43 percent.
Trump has seen his campaign’s popularity surge through the summer while Clinton’s has struggled with voter concerns over her transparency and trustworthiness as secretary of State.

Damn, so hope so, Joe
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately what he's leading on are his talking points. A high percentage of people in the country like what he saying, and think most of what he's saying is right on, but at the end of the day most people do not think he would make a good president. This is what is going to help the dems at voting time.
ReplyDeleteHopefully, between the untrustworthy HildaBeast, the socialist Bernie, and slow-Joe, the dumbocrats can't come up with anything better - we might just be able to start getting our country back on track.
ReplyDeleteFirst steps will be to repeal all of OweBlama's presidential orders and revoke his non-treaty with Iran!
He is a born leader, he is exactly what America needs, he is just like Vladmer Putain, he says what he means, and to hell with politics.
ReplyDeleteNone of the wishy-washy answers you get fro those other liars!
We need a man like him again, to put fear back into the world, we are the worlds superpower and the master race, we need a take no prisoners president!
3:02 Hopefully that's your feeble attempt at sarcasm, Vladimir Putin/master race? Actually we do need Trump or someone like him to turn this ship around if it's not already too late. Trump is neither racist nor fascist he's just not afraid of the politically correct media and political establishment. So far he has my vote.
