Colorado is considered one of the key swing states in this year`s presidential election. In 2008 Obama won the state with a 9 point margin, this was reduced to 5.4 points in 2012.
According to the RealClearPolitics running average, Clinton leads by 3.7%, this signals a reduction in her lead from prior weeks, largely due to an Emerson poll which showed Trump winning by 4 points.
RealClearPolitics Average (9 August-13 September)
Hillary Clinton 42.7%
Donald Trump 39.0%
As recently as the end of August this average showed Clinton up by more than 11 points, so there seems to be little doubt that the race is tightening here.
Colorado is certainly a state that Trump would hope to win in order to boost his chances of victory on November 8.
