Following last week’s news that the FBI had reopened their investigation of Hillary Clinton, Donald Trump’s poll numbers have been climbing nationally—but now, he’s pulling even or ahead of Hillary Clinton in key swing states.
Two polls released yesterday show Trump passing Clinton in New Hampshire. WBUR/MassINC poll shows Trump at 40, to Clinton’s 39, with third party candidates splitting much of the rest of the vote. And ARG’s poll has Trump up by a whopping 5 points—48 to Clinton’s 43.
Trump continues to gain elsewhere. In must-win Ohio, a Quinnipiac poll also has Trump leading by 5 points, 46 to 41. In Nevada, CNN has Trump up by 5, and in Florida, Trafalgar has Trump up by 4.
In Arizona, an NBC poll has Trump a comfortable 5 points ahead of Clinton, 45 to 40. Just last week, Arizona was widely considered to be a toss up.
Nationally, Trump has pulled into a dead heat with Hillary Clinton. In the RealClearPolitics polling average—widely considered to be the most accurate aggregator—Hillary’s lead has all but collapsed to a slim 1.3%—with a number of recent polls showing Trump tied or leading the embattled former Secretary of State.
Trump still has ground to make up against Clinton—but, based on the way his numbers have been climbing in the last week, he may be able to pull it off on Election Day.
