Hillary Clinton has maneuvered her way to a commanding lead over Donald Trump in electoral votes, with a new ABC News poll finding she has secured more than enough support to emerge as President Obama's successor.

With 270 votes needed to win the White House, pollsters now find Clinton tops Trump 275 electoral votes to 191, with 72 votes remaining as tossups.

Clinton Looking to Expand map

In addition to solidly leading in such traditional democratic states as New York, Illinois, Minnesota, California, Oregon and Washington, researchers also found Clinton is gaining increasing support in such longtime republican trenches as Arizona, Georgia, Missouri and Utah.

Bolstered by their growing Hispanic populations, surveyors also found Clinton is favored in Colorado and Nevada, states that also went for President Obama during both of his runs for the Oval Office.

Throughout campaign season, Trump has fared poorly with Latinos, largely based on him launching his campaign by deriding Mexicans as "criminals" and pledging to deport millions of undocumented immigrants.

Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin are all also projected to go for Clinton just as they have for every democratic presidential candidate over at least the last 20 years.

Running-mate Tim Kaine's home state of Virginia is also projected to be in Clinton's column.

Trump's Uphill Battle 

Meanwhile, Trump continues to solidly lead among a batch of Great Plains, and Bible Belt states that include large numbers of evangelical Christian and social conservatives, among them South Carolina and Texas.

West Virginia and Alaska are also expected to firmly remain Republican, just as both of them have for at least the last two decades.

Overall, Trump's path to the White House is viewed as narrow and seemingly shrinking. Beyond having to put the likes of Pennsylvania and Virginia back in play, he would almost certainly have to win all of the tossup states of Florida, Iowa, New Hampshire, North Carolina and Ohio to have any realistic shot at overtaking Clinton.
