Clinton beating Trump by 5 in Arizona
By Nolan D. McCaskill
Hillary Clinton leads Donald Trump by 5 percentage points in Arizona, according to an Arizona Republic/Morrison/Cronkite News poll released Wednesday.
Clinton tops Trump in Arizona, 39 percent to 34 percent. Libertarian nominee Gary Johnson garners 6 percent support, and Green Party candidate Jill Stein registers at 1 percent. Twenty-one percent, however, are undecided.
Arizona has voted for the Republican candidate for president in 15 of the last 16 presidential elections, yet Clinton's campaign is making a play for the state. Clinton has deployed some of her top surrogates in the state, including Bernie Sanders; her daughter, Chelsea Clinton; and first lady Michelle Obama, who will stump there Thursday.
The campaign announced Monday that it would also spend more than $2 million in the state on an expanded television ad buy, direct mail and digital advertising.
The survey of 713 likely voters was conducted Oct. 10-15 via landlines and cellphones. It has a margin of error of plus or minus 4.3 percentage points.
