About this Poll

The results from the polls conducted July 5-11 suggest that Mr. Trump has a fairly steep hill to climb in a quartet of states that often decide presidential races. He trails Mrs. Clinton by 6 percentage points among registered voters in North Carolina, 7 in Florida, 8 in Colorado and 9 in Virginia, the surveys found.

The surveys included 871 registered voters in Florida, 907 in North Carolina, 876 in Virginia and 794 in Colorado. The margin of error was plus or minus 3.3 percentage points in Florida, North Carolina and Virginia and 3.5 points in Colorado.
