Never Trump Movement Wilts As Trump Overtakes
Hillary in Polls
Everyone who predicted – for months
– the defeat of Donald Trump by Hillary Clinton based on old polling data that
showed Hillary ahead must be ready to give up right about now. Because the new
Rasmussen poll has Trump leading Hillary by a significant 5 percent.
Rasmussen
reports that,Trump earns 42% support to Clinton’s 37% when Likely U.S. Voters are
asked whom they would vote for if the presidential election were held today.
…At the beginning of this month, Trump, the presumptive Republican
nominee, posted a statistically insignificant 41% to 39% lead over Clinton who
is still expected to win the Democratic presidential nomination.
…Trump now gets 76% of the Republican vote, while Clinton has 72%
Democratic support. Thirteen percent (13%) of Democrats prefer Trump, while
nine percent (9%) of GOP voters favor Clinton. Among voters not affiliated with
either major party, Trump leads 41% to 28%, but 31% of these voters either like
another candidate or are undecided.
…While there is much talk of a gender gap in this race, Clinton appears
to have a bigger problem with men than Trump does with women. Trump leads by 22
points among men, compared to Clinton’s 11-point advantage among women.
So, not only does Trump have the
support of the majority of Republican voters, his negatives are lower than
Hillary’s. There are even enough Bernie supporters pledging to vote for Trump
if Hillary gets the nomination that she should be concerned.
A Fox News poll just released also
shows Trump leading Clinton, 45 to 42.
