Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton are in a virtual tie, according to the USC Dornsife/LA Times tracking poll.

Trump owns the slight edge over Clinton: 44.3 percent to 43.6 percent.

However, the survey shows that nearly 55 percent think Clinton will win, regardless of which candidate those surveyed support. Nearly 40 percent think Trump will win.

Other results from the poll:

  • Trump leads Clinton among people 65 and over, 49 percent to 42 percent
  • Clinton leads Trump among millennials 45 percent to 38 percent
  • Clinton maintains double-digit leads with educated voters while Trump has a six-point lead with those with a high school education or less
  • Trump owns a 14-point lead over Clinton with middle income voters while Clinton maintains a 17-point lead with low income voters
  • Trump owns a 10-point lead with men, and Clinton has an eight-point lead with women

The USC Dornsife/L.A. Times Presidential Election "Daybreak" Poll asks more than 400 people each day about their voting intentions. Each day's poll respondents are a subset of a panel of roughly 3,000 citizens who were randomly recruited from among all households in the United States.
