Poll: Arizona a toss-up between Hillary Clinton, Donald Trump
Arizona is a too-close-to-call presidential battleground between Democrat Hillary Clinton and Republican Donald Trump, according to a new statewide Arizona Republic/Morrison/Cronkite News poll.
The live telephone survey found Clinton, the former secretary of State, leading Trump, the celebrity billionaire, 35.1 percent to 33.5 percent among likely voters in the traditional red state, well within the poll’s margin of error of plus or minus 3.3 percentage points.

Republican Donald Trump‘s bumpy campaign path to date has left him behind his rival, and two articles this morning in The Washington Post (A new 50-state poll shows exactly why Clinton holds the advantage over Trump) and Politico (Has Trump hit his ceiling?) suggest that he may have insurmountable obstacles between him and the White House.

Only in that case, on Trump’s best possible Election Day, would Utah’s four Electoral College votes determine the outcome of the 2016 presidential race.
