LIVE Coverage: Donald Trump On The Campaign Trail

Trump narrows the gap with Clinton – Race is on.

By: Jim Williams – Washington Bureau Chief for News Talk Florida

WASHINGTON –  Starting today we will begin live coverage of all of the events that both Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump and the Democratic standard bearer Hillary Clinton all the way to November.

New polls show the race is closing the gap.

Clinton has failed to take advantage of the squalls surrounding GOP rival Donald Trump and heads into the fall campaign with a tenuous lead and strong voter doubts about her trustworthiness, a new Franklin Pierce University/Boston Herald poll reveals.


A new Boston Herald report shows that Clinton is hanging on to a 3-point lead — 44 to 41 percent — unchanged from a Franklin Pierce/Herald poll nearly two months ago. Libertarian Gary Johnson is drawing 8 percent while Green Party candidate Jill Stein follows with 3 percent, according to the poll of 1,025 likely voters nationwide.

The Franklin Pierce/Herald poll also shows that Clinton and Trump continue to be viewed negatively by historically high numbers of likely voters — 55 percent for the Democratic nominee and 57 percent for her GOP opponent. Less than 30 percent of both Clinton’s and Trump’s supporters say they are “very excited” about voting for them.

“If past elections are any indication of what’s likely to happen in this election, there’s not much that will change in the next two months,” said R. Kelly Myers, who conducted the poll for Franklin Pierce and the Herald. “The only thing likely to have any major impact on the race are the debates.”
