Clinton leads Trump by six points in Va. on eve of election
Clinton leads Trump by six points in Va. on eve of election: On the eve of the election, Hillary Clinton leads Donald Trump in Virginia, 48-to-42 percent.
That’s according to a poll just released from Christopher Newport University’s Wason Center for Public Policy.
Trump has cut into Clinton’s lead over the past few weeks, but it appears he still trails in the Commonwealth. At one point, Clinton had a 15-point advantage.
The poll also shows a gender gap, with women voters favoring Clinton by 16 points, 53-37 percent. Millennials are even stronger for Clinton, as voters 18-34 years old prefer her, 56-33 percent.
Trump’s strongest support comes from white men, who back him 62-29 percent. White voters overall favor Trump, 54-36 percent, while African-American voters support Clinton, 89-5 percent.
Clinton’s biggest lead in the CNU poll came in mid-October, shortly after leaked audio of Trump surfaced where he described groping and forcefully kissing women.
Trump has since chipped away at that lead, but with just a day before the election, still has quite a bit of ground to gain in order to win Virginia.
This survey was conducted Nov. 1-6 among 1,193 likely Virginia voters. It has an overall margin of error of +/- 3.6%, though the margin of error for subgroups is higher.
