Media mogul Oprah Winfrey is opening up her lead over President Trump in a potential 2020 race, winning majorities among traditional Democratic groups and even two that helped put Trump in the White House, independents and voters with no college degree.
The latest Zogby Analytics poll, provided to Secrets, gives Winfrey a 10-point advantage over Trump. In a separate poll out two weeks ago, she had a 7-point lead. In the Zogby poll, 18 percent were “not sure” who they’d pick.
“If one television star can win the White House, why another,” said the poll analysis.
Winfrey’s support among key groups breaks down this way:
— Younger voters, 18-24, 55 percent.
— Blacks, 76 percent.
— Hispanics, 58 percent.
— Asians, 53 percent.
— Women, 54 percent.
— Independents, 41 percent.
— Workers with no college degree, 42 percent.
She also won every income group.
Trump holds the advantage among voters 65 or older, rural voters, whites and men.
