Donald Trump owns a national lead over Hillary Clinton for the first time since July, according to the latest Rasmussen Reports poll.
The latest results:
- Trump: 40 percent;
- Clinton: 39 percent;
- Gary Johnson: 7 percent;
- Jill Stein: 3 percent.
Clinton is down from a high of 44 percent support in early August, attributed to a post-convention bounce, according to Rasmussen.
Other results from the poll:
- Trump has support from 71 percent of Republicans;
- Clinton has 73 percent support from Democrats;
- Trump leads with men, 44 percent to 37 percent;
- Clinton leads with women, 41 percent to 36 percent.
Rasmussen surveyed 1,000 likely voters from Aug. 29-30. The margin of sampling error is +/- 3 percentage points with a 95 percent level of confidence.
