National poll says the math is against Trump

Published October 19, 2016 1:35pm ET



The keys to the White House appear to be slipping away from Donald Trump as more voters are abandoning his campaign after the leak of a video in which he made lewd comments about women, according to a new national poll released Wednesday.

The Bloomberg Politics nationwide poll shows the Republican presidential candidate trails Hillary Clinton by 9 points. Support for Trump among core constituents, including men and the less educated, has dropped dramatically in the last days of the race for the Oval Office. Even when third-party candidates are included, Clinton leads by the same margin, 50-41.
