Clinton moved to a 42% to 38% lead last week after wrapping up her party’s nomination by winning the California Democratic primary. The two had been in a virtual tie prior to that. Trump’s support has remained frozen around the 40% mark in surveys since late April.
Among voters who consider the mass murders in Orlando, Florida this past weekend primarily a terrorist attack, Trump leads Clinton 64% to 16%. Clinton posts an 83% to four percent (4%) lead among those who see the killings as chiefly a gun control issue.
The former secretary of State now earns the support of 83% of her fellow Democrats, while Trump has the backing of 73% of Republicans. That’s a 10-point jump in Democratic support for Clinton from last week. Trump’s GOP support has not changed.
