Hillary Clinton Opens Up 13 pt. Lead On Donald Trump In Reuters Weekly Tracking Poll

[Mark III]

REUTERS - Democratic presidential contender Hillary Clinton regained a double-digit lead over Republican rival Donald Trump this week, according to a Reuters/Ipsos poll released on Friday.

The June 20-24 poll showed that 46.6 percent of likely American voters supported Clinton while 33.3 percent supported Trump. Another 20.1 percent said they would support neither candidate.

Trump had enjoyed a brief boost in support following the June 12 mass shooting in Orlando, Florida, as he doubled down on his pledge to ban Muslims from entering the country, cutting Clinton's lead to nine points.

But Trump's rise in popularity appeared to be only temporary, unlike his lasting surge among the Republican field last year after the attacks in Paris and in San Bernardino, California.

Clinton's 13.3 percentage point lead is about the same as she had before the Orlando attack.

Trump was utterly clueless in his remarks in Scotland. When he finally got around to discussing the Brexit vote, which had happened hours earlier, he was basically incoherent.

You are running out of time Republicans.

Donald Trump is so terrible, yet Hillary can't top 50%.

That should tell the Democratic hacks something.

It's still early in the race and she is off to a great start! As more and more Americans get to know the real Donald Trump they will inevitably be switching their allegiance to Hillary Clinton. She provides far more information on what she is going to do to help the citizens of this country than Trump ever has. All he does is provide walls while Hillary provides BRIDGES.

45% is not a great start for a candidate with the political "experience" and name recognition of Hillary Clinton. Particularly when you consider she's up against a candidate like Donald Trump. She should be polling 60-30 and on the verge of a landslide, but she's not. She's at a mediocre and unsteady 45%.

I don't see voters moving from Trump to Hillary. More likely just sit home. The voters don't have anything to look forward to this year.

I think we will see new records set in low voter turnout. Hopefully, we will also see record highs in 3rd party votes.
