Latest Poll Trump vs Clinton October 4 2016

Who is currently ahead in the polls? Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton? Many polls are showing vastly different levels of support for each candidate but according to a running average of the last 10 polls calculated by the site RealClearPolitics, it is the democratic candidate who has the edge over the real estate mogul turned politician.

RealClearPolitics Average (Based on polls conducted between September 15-29)

Hillary Clinton   47.3%
Donald Trump   44.4%

This is a lead of 2.9% which is very significant in a presidential race, although many commentators have speculated that the focus that Trump is putting on certain swing states could make for a much closer race than many expect.

Ohio for example is a state that Trump must win if he is to have a chance to win the White House, and the last 5 reliable polls in that state show Trump with an advantage of between 1-5%. Ohio was won by the democrats in the 2012 election.

Florida is another must win for Trump but polls there show Trump and Clinton pretty much neck and neck, if we take an average of the last 6 reliable polls in the state, Clinton has a lead of just 1.2%, although this has fluctuated wildly in the last few weeks, with some surveys showing a lead of up to 4 points for the republican contender.

Video of Hillary Clinton Coughing Cleveland Ohio

More questions have been raised over the health of Democratic Candidate Hillary Clinton after a Labor Day speech when she descended into an intense coughing fit at a campaign event in Cleveland, Ohio.



Other videos and photos within the last few months appear to show Hillary Clinton a bit worse for wear, being helped up stairs and with her head making strange jerking movements.

Some have even alleged that the former First Lady and Secretary of State may be suffering from the first stages of Parkinson`s Disease.

Another theory is that Clinton is suffering the after effects of a fall in 2012, which lead to a concussion and blot clot, which can often cause long lasting effects.

However spokespeople for the Clinton campaign have maintained that she is in good health.

Polls Ohio Trump vs Clinton August 2016

Polls in Ohio, one of the key swing states in this year`s presidential election shows a virtual tie between Donald Trump and HIllary Clinton.

The RealClearPolitics average of polls which were conducted between June 30- July 24 shows Clinton with a 0.8% advantage.

RCP Average (June 30-July 24)

Hillary Clinton  42.6%
Donald Trump  41.8%

This is based on the last 5 reliable polls in states, incredibly 4 of these polls all show the two candidates tied with only one CBS News/YouGov showing Clinton up by 4 points.

Barack Obama won Ohio for the democrats in 2008 and 2012 and prior to that George W Bush was victorious in the state in 2000 and 2004.

Although it is a relatively sparsely populated state it is always highly contested and it will be interesting to see the result this time around.

Donald Trump Polls Swing States July 2016

Shock new polls are showing Donald Trump making big gains in the key swing states of Florida, Pennsylvania and Ohio.

According to Quinnipiac the numbers are the following

Florida

Trump    42%
Clinton   39%

Pennsylvania

Trump    43%
Clinton   41%

Ohio

Trump    42%
Clinton   42%


This is a massive change from June when the Quinnipiac showed Clinton with a healthy 8% lead in Florida and will no doubt have alarm bells ringing from within the democratic party. It may be merely a blip in the Clinton campaign following the email scandal, or indicative of a broader trend, one thing is sure, with the presidential election just months away, noboby can afford to be complacent.

It must be noted however, that Trump`s leads in Florida and Pennsylvania fall within the margin of error +/- 3%.

Results Ohio Republican March 15 2016 Trump, Kasich, Cruz, Rubio

Ohio is considered perhaps the most important contest of the day due to the narrow polling margin between the two frontrunners in the state, Donald Trump and Ohio Governor John Kasich.

The latest RealClearPolitics indicates the following percentages

John Kasich     36.8%
Donald Trump   33.6%
Ted Cruz          19.2%
Marco Rubio     5.2%


Whoever emerges victorious in the state will obtain all of the 66 candidates on offer as Ohio has a winner-take-all format, making it all the more important. Many commentators have stated that should Trump win Florida and Ohio then he will be well on his way to obtaining the nomination, although others have suggested he may fall just short of the 1,237 delegates that he requires, thus heralding in a brokered convention.

Whatever happens, you can follow the results here live as they come in.

John Kasich      46.8%
Donald Trump  35.6%
Ted Cruz          13.1%
Marco Rubio    2.9%

Ohio Republican Poll GOP March 14 2016

The Republican Primary in Ohio appears to be a two horse race between current frontrunner Donald Trump and the state governor John Kasich.

The state seems to be of vital importance given that it is designated winner-take-all and 66 delegates are available. Many commentators think that should Trump win the state then he will be well on his way to winning the nomination of the Republican Party.

Latest Polls (RealClearPolitics Average 3/2-3/8)

Trump   36.5%
Kasich  34%
Cruz     16.3%
Rubio    7%

Ohio Republican Poll GOP March 12 2016

Ohio will vote on March 15 in what is seen as a vital contest within the race for the republican nomination.

According to the RealClearPolitics average of polls it shows a very tight battle between Trump and Kasich, who is the current governor. Trump is at 36.5% almost tied with Kasich on 34%. Cruz and Rubio have little chance of making an impact, at 16.3% and 7% respectively.

The format of the distribution of delegates is winner-take-all, making the battle between Trump and Kasich all the more significant. Should Kasich tip Trump then it could arrest his momentum somewhat and raise the hopes of those who are hoping for a brokered convention in order to wrestle the nomination away from the business mogul.

Inversely, should Trump take Ohio as well as Florida then it would strengthen his position massively.
