Clinton surges to 7-point lead in battleground Nevada

Hillary Clinton has retaken the lead in Nevada, a western swing state that has become a must-win for Donald Trump, according to the latest Monmouth University poll.

The former secretary of state trailed Trump by 2 points last month, but recent gains among young, non-white voters have since propelled her to a 7-point lead over the Republican presidential nominee. Forty-seven percent of likely voters in the Silver State now back Clinton, 40 percent support Trump and 7 percent intend to vote for Libertarian nominee Gary Johnson.
