New polls show Clinton leading in key swing states

Democrat Hillary Clinton has a 5 percentage point lead over Republican Donald Trump in the U.S. presidential race, according to the latest Reuters/Ipsos opinion poll released on Friday. Four polls released Friday show Clinton ahead in Florida, Michigan, Nevada, and New Hampshire in a race that includes Libertarian nominee Gary Johnson and Green Party nominee Jill Stein. Trump was deadlocked with Clinton in the polls earlier this month, making gains in national surveys and in key swing states. But Trump's poll numbers are sagging again after a debate performance that some political observers are characterizing as disastrous.
