Over the last few weeks GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump has been making steady gains against his presidential opponent, Hillary Clinton. As recently as early August some polls had him trailing the Democrat by some 15 points, but that is now a distant memory as most of the recent polling has the two candidates neck and neck. In fact, on Wednesday, 3 different polls were released showing Hillary Clinton with a slim 2 point lead:
GWU/Battleground Poll: Clinton 42, Trump 40
Economist/YouGov Poll: Clinton 40, Trump 38
Reuters/Ipsos Poll: Clinton 40, Trump 38
Even more importantly two of those polls showed the difference between the two candidates stayed the same whether or not other 3rd party options were included.
However, there’s a bigger underlying story here. It’s not “just” that Donald Trump has essentially caught up to Hillary Clinton in the polls, it’s also “who” is helping him catch up that is the bigger story. In recent poll conducted by the Boston Herald and Franklin Pierce University it seems that African-American and Hispanic voters are both siding with Mr. Trump in bigger numbers than they did with either of the last two GOP candidates.
