Donald Trump has caught up to Hillary Clinton in a new national poll, and is now seen as the more honest and trustworthy of the two.
The Washington Post/ABC News poll released Wednesday morning included third-party candidates Jill Stein and Gary Johnson in its survey of likely voters.
- Trump: 46 percent.
- Clinton: 46 percent.
- Johnson: 3 percent.
- Stein: 2 percent.
Although tied nationally, Clinton has an advantage in a few important battleground states. She leads Trump in Virginia, for instance, according to another Post/ABC poll.
- Clinton: 48 percent.
- Trump: 42 percent.
- Johnson: 6 percent.
- Stein: 2 percent.
Clinton has lost the trust of many likely voters, going from tied with Trump to dropping eight percentage points below him - 46 percent to 38 percent.
Democrats with a positive view of Clinton's honesty decreased since September, while Trump's trustworthiness rating only rose slightly.
- Republicans trust Trump (Sept. 6-9): 86 percent.
- Republicans trust Trump (Oct. 30-31): 87 percent.
- Democrats trust Clinton (Sept. 6-9): 86 percent.
- Democrats trust Clinton (Oct. 30-31): 76 percent.
The Post/ABC poll took place from Oct. 28-31 by telephone, surveying 1,773 voters, 1,182 likely voters, from across the country, with a margin of error of +/- 3 points among likely voters.
