With Election Day just one week away, the race for the White House has tightened between Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton. The latest polling shows
The Real Clear Politics average of polls has the Democratic nominee leading by 2.2 points. That's a far cry from polling last week when polls suggested that Clinton could cruise to a general election landslide. There are multiple explanations for the voter shift including hesitant Republicans renewing support for Trump despite recent sexual assault claims, as well as an FBI review of Clinton-related emails that may cut into her support among some undecided voters.
The most recent ABC News/Washington Post tracking poll, a survey that had Clinton up by as much as 12 percentage points about a week ago, even showed Trump was up by 1 point Tuesday in a four-way race. Surveys from Rasmussen Reports and Investor's Business Daily/TIPP, two polling firms that previously made headlines for leaning toward Trump when Clinton was leading in most other polls, showed a tie and Clinton up 1 point, respectively. A weekly tracking poll released Monday by NBC News/Survey Monkey, meanwhile, showed the Democratic nominee holding steady, up 6 points over Trump.
