Donald Trump is now within 3 points of Hillary Clinton in the latest Reuters presidential poll.
This comes after new allegations of Hillary Clinton’s criminal activity.
Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump has made up significant ground against Hillary Clinton in the past few days in the Reuters/Ipsos poll, where he trailed by 12 points on Tuesday, 45% -33% , but is now behind only 5 points, 41% -36% .
When four candidates are included in the poll — taking in Green Party candidate Jill Stein and Libertarian Gary Johnson — Clinton’s lead narrows to just 3 points, 39% -36% — a statistical dead heat, given the poll’s margin of error of 3 points.
The poll was taken Aug. 22-25, over a period where Clinton accused Trump of aligning with the Ku Klux Klan and the “alt-right.” The same period also saw new revelations of pay-to-play corruption while Clinton was at the State Department.
