Hillary Clinton maintains a 21-point lead over Donald Trump in New York, despite a 4-point drop since last month, according to the latest Siena College poll.

The results of the home state for both Trump and Clinton:

  • Clinton: 51 percent
  • Trump: 30 percent
  • Gary Johnson: 8 percent
  • Jill Stein: 3 percent

Clinton led Trump by 25 points in the August survey, 50 percent to 25 percent.

"Clinton holds her base better than Trump holds his. She leads with Democrats 75-10 percent, while Trump holds a 67-16 percent lead with Republicans. Independent voters are closely divided, with 39 percent supporting Clinton and 37 percent backing Trump," said Siena College pollster Steven Greenberg. "Clinton leads by a whopping 52 points in New York City and six points upstate; they are virtually even in the downstate suburbs."

Trump a few weeks ago said he will win New York, despite the precipitous gap in the polls and the fact no Republican presidential candidate has won the state since Ronald Reagan in 1984 and 1980.

Clinton has a favorability rating of 52 percent to 46 percent, while 68 percent have an unfavorable view of Trump in his own state.

Voters think Clinton is more honest and trustworthy by a count of 50 percent to 39 percent.

This Siena College Poll was conducted Sept. 11-15 to 600 self-identified likely New York voters. It has an overall margin of error of +/- 5.0 percentage points.
