Election 2016: Nevada President
Nevada President: Clinton 46%, Trump 42%
With just two weeks left until Election Day, Hillary Clinton leads Donald Trump in the key state of Nevada.
A new KTNV-TV 13 Action News/Rasmussen Reports telephone and online survey of Likely Nevada Voters shows Clinton picking up 46% support to Trump’s 42%. That’s a shift from September when Trump held a narrow 42% to 39% edge over Clinton. Libertarian candidate Gary Johnson now draws just five percent (5%) of the vote, down from 11% in the previous survey. Two percent (2%) like some other candidate, and four percent (4%) are undecided.
