Hillary Clinton Slightly Ahead of Donald Trump Many in the Battle States a Tie September-11-2016
Battleground States: Polls
Just over eight weeks from Election Day, Democrat Hillary Clinton and Republican Donald Trump are essentially deadlocked in four presidential battleground states — ranging from red Arizona and Georgia to blue-ish Nevada and New Hampshire, according to four new NBC News/Wall Street Journal/Marist polls.
In Arizona, which Republicans have carried in every presidential election since 2000, Trump leads Clinton among likely voters by one point, 42 percent to 41 percent. (Among the larger group of all registered voters, it's Clinton 41 percent, Trump 40 percent.)
In Georgia, which the GOP has won since 1996, Trump is ahead by three points among likely voters, 46 percent to 43 percent. (Among registered voters, the candidates are tied at 44 percent each.)
In Nevada, which Barack Obama carried in 2008 and 2012, Clinton is up by one point, 45 percent to 44 percent (but she's ahead by five points among registered voters, 46 percent to 41 percent).
And in New Hampshire, which Obama also won in the last two presidential elections, Clinton leads Trump by one point, 42 percent to 41 percent (and they're tied at 40 percent each among registered voters).
All of these results are within each poll's margin of error. The surveys were conducted Sept. 6-8.
