New poll shows Clinton leading in Florida
In the last election, Hillary Clinton was so widely viewed in the Democratic Party it was “her turn” to be nominated, and she was so formidable a fundraiser, very few people got in to challenge her in 2016. And it also underscores how important it will be for Clinton to activate Obama’s coalition of black, Latino, female and young voters to turn out in large numbers amid a negative election environment against Trump. The shortlist includes Massachusetts Sen.
Many Americans view Islam unfavorably, and supporters of Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump are more than twice as likely to view the religion negatively as those backing Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, according to a Reuters/Ipsos online poll of more than 7,000 Americans.

Clinton promised to create a clearer immigration system where immigrants with “sympathetic cases” or a history of community service can be eligible for special status. She also vowed to eliminate family detention centers, which hold undocumented immigrant families, including children and babies, for weeks or even months in what advocates call prison-like conditions while they wait for legal processing. Clinton’s campaign is firing on all cylinders, and the Democratic Coordinated Campaign is already out knocking on doors and winning votes for November. “This is your election”. Trump voters are just as anxious. The share of GOP voters who say they’d prefer Trump as the nominee over someone else has increased from 51% in June to 56% now.
Both Trump and Clinton are historically disliked by voters, according to recent surveys, making upbeat, biographical ads particularly important, Schriefer said. “But perhaps after the comparative success of Sanders’s campaign, this state of affairs will invigorate more courageous candidates to follow his lead in challenging establishment, commercialized politics”.
