Hillary Clinton's lead collapses just before debate

Hillary Clinton's lead over Donald Trump has collapsed nationally just before the highly anticipated first presidential debate Monday, according to a new poll.

The Bloomberg Politics poll says Trump and Clinton are each supported by 46 percent of likely voters in a two-way race. In August, Clinton had a 6-point edge over Trump, and in June, Clinton had a comfortable 12-point lead.

In a four-person race, the Trump now leads Clinton 43-41, Libertarian nominee Gary Johnson gets 8 percent and Green Party nominee Jill Stein gets 4 percent.

Pollster Ann Selzer, who oversaw the survey, speculated that Trump's rise could be a sign that Clinton's support among women and young voters is wavering.

Another poll of 700 close friends? We need to know the poll reached over 10,000 people before it can be believable. Posting the # of people polled should be a requirement for all of them.

Check out the wire and ear piece in the news that Clinton wore during debate. It's obvious here, people. She will do anything to win this election. She should be in jail for lying under oath and purposefully mishandling classified material, as shown by e-mail chains to and from others that were not deleted. It's clear that Comey’s handling of the Clinton case proves our government cannot be trusted to perform their job by investigating fairly and honestly. The FBI’s special treat for Mrs. Clinton and immunity given to her aides prove the point. This election process is rigged.

Everything that Hillary said sounded just like rehearsed lines.

8:53 I thought the same thing or here is another idea. Could it be a medical device that helps control her spasms and other medical problems.. The look in her eyes during most of the debate were rather odd. Which ever it is the Clinton staff is pretty F.... stupid to let that happen.
