Clinton Has Narrow Lead on Trump Nationally: Poll

Women are giving Hillary Clinton a narrow advantage over Donald Trump in a likely general election matchup, according to a poll of likely voters.

The Quinnipiac University poll found that voters preferred Clinton to Trump 45% to 41% in the November presidential race.

When a third-party candidate is added to the mix, Clinton's lead is virtually nonexistent at some 2% of the vote, with Libertarian Party candidate Gary Johnson getting 5%.
