Clinton raises a combined $143 million in August

The one-minute ad, now airing in battleground states, shows young kids watching Donald Trump’s comments on women, guns and minorities. An additional 7 percent of poll respondents were for Libertarian Gary Johnson, and 2 percent favored Green Party nominee Jill Stein.

Clinton, who received 41 percent, had a very slim two-percentage point lead over Trump, who got 39 percent. The poll has a margin of error of 4.6 percentage points. In Georgia, the same polling site average shows the race in a virtual tie, with Clinton leading by less than a percentage point.

Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign will begin airing ads in Arizona on Friday, multiple Clinton aides tell CNN, a move that comes hours after Donald Trump said “there will be no amnesty” in a fiery immigration speech that Clinton aides dubbed “his darkest speech yet”. But 18 percent of respondents were undecided.While McGinty is building momentum among likely voters, she appears to be losing ground among registered voters.

While Clinton expands the battlefield, she has stopped spending campaign money on TV ads in two traditional swing states, Colorado and Virginia, where polls have consistently showed her with double-digit leads. Meanwhile, white registered voters who do not have a college degree chose Trump over Clinton by 23 points.

Clinton spent much of August holding high-profile fundraisers in New York, California and MA.

Clinton and Trump will surely try to project positive images of themselves, experts say, “but for both of them, [the negatives] are so deeply baked in, it’s hard to see how” they can substantially reverse their unfavorable ratings, says Republican pollster Ed Goeas.

The ad buy comes weeks after Clinton’s campaign made a decision to expand their political and organizing operations into Arizona, telling state Democratic leaders that they planned to invest six figures in a ground operation in the state.

Privately, some Clinton campaign officials were celebrating their opponents’ time outside the traditional battlegrounds, though Trump officials noted there are other benefits to campaigning in friendly states like Georgia.

The numbers were gathered from the Reuters/Ipsos polls conducted from June 26 to July 26, where more than 5,000 respondents participated.
