Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump has cut into Democratic opponent Hillary Clinton’s lead in Colorado and Virginia, two states which are thought to be solidly in her column, according to a new poll.

In the new Quinnipiac poll released Thursday, Trump trails Clinton by only 2 points in Colorado (44 percent-42 percent) and 6 points in Virginia (45 percent-39 percent). He also has taken solid leads in Iowa (44 percent-37 percent), which has shifted to support him in recent weeks, and Georgia (47 percent-40 percent), a solidly red state where Clinton has been competitive.
