Poll: Clinton Leads Trump Among Likely Voters Ahead of First Debate
"Just hours ahead of the first 2016 presidential debate, Hillary Clinton continues to lead Donald Trump by 5 points, 45 percent to 40 percent, unchanged from last week, according to the latest NBC News/SurveyMonkey Weekly Election Tracking Poll.
In a two-way match-up without the third-party candidates, Clinton has a 7-point advantage over Trump, 51 percent to 44 percent. The margin is up from 5 points last week among likely voters."
This poll has pretty much tracked as an indicator of the results of the NBC/Wall ST. Journal poll the last few weeks.
