Clinton Trump tied nationally in latest poll

Two weeks ahead of the US presidential elections, Hillary Clinton from the Democratic party and Republican’s Donald Trump are tied nationally, a new national poll claimed on Monday.

Both Clinton, 68, and Trump, 70, have support of 41 per cent of the likely voters in a four-way race with Gary Johnson of the Libertarian Party and Jill Stein of the Green Party, said the poll conducted by Investor’s Business Daily/ TechnoMetrica Market Intelligence Tracking Poll.

The poll was conducted between October 18 and 23, in which 815 likely voters were interviewed. The margin of error is 3.6 percentage points. 

In a two-way race, Clinton and Trump both got the support of 42 per cent of the likely voters. Other major polls have given Clinton a lead of between six to 12 percentage points against Trump.

Donald Trump proves himself unfit for presidency “every single day”, US President Barack Obama said as he slammed the Republican leaders for going along with the rhetoric of the party's White House nominee till recently. "For all the progress we've made, if we don't work as hard as we can in these next 16 days, all that progress could be out of the window. Because competing for the job I currently hold, you've got a guy who proves himself unfit for this office every single day, every single way," he said.
