Clinton vs. Trump in 2016 Swing States: Polls of Ohio, North Carolina, Florida, Pennsylvania and Others Find Hillary Topping Donald Across the Board
Hillary Clinton leads Donald Trump by an average of 11 points in the seven biggest battleground states heading into the 2016 general election.
A new Ballotpedia battleground poll shows Clinton leading across the board in Florida (51 percent to 37 percent), Iowa (45 percent to 41 percent), Michigan (50 percent to 33 percent), North Carolina (48 percent to 38 percent), Ohio (46 percent to 37 percent), Pennsylvania (49 percent to 35 percent) and Virginia (45 percent to 38 percent).
Each of the states is viewed as critical to the aspirations of both candidates, and territories were both parties strive to remain competitive seemingly at all cost.
Hundreds Polled in Each State
Roughly 600 voters in each state were polled for the survey over a 12-day period commencing on June 10. Each survey has a margin of error of plus or minus four points.
A recent Quinnipiac University poll also offered encouraging news for Clinton, with the former first lady leading by eight points in Florida, while up a point in Pennsylvania and running even in Ohio.
Overall, Clinton tops Trump 42 percent to 40 percent in the Quinnipiac poll and is up on him 39 percent to 37 percent when third party Libertarian candidate Gary Johnson (8 percent of vote) and Green Party nominee Jill Stein (4 percent) are factored in.
Recent polls conducted by the Washington Post/ABC News and NBC News /Wall Street Journal show Clinton holding significantly larger leads over Trump, who continues to struggle mightily among Latino voters.
Trump's Latino Support Nearly Nonexistent
A recent Washington Post/ABC News poll found nine out of every 10 Hispanic voters has a negative image of the New York City real estate mogul.
With all that, some GOP delegates continue to spark talk of replacing the political neophyte with another more established and polished candidate.
The Ballotpedia survey found runs slightly behind Ohio Gov. John Kasich in a head to head match-up and even with House Speaker Paul Ryan.
