According to Reuters, Clinton has maintained an advantage over Trump since the Democratic and Republication national conventions.
A separate poll asked likely voters the same question, but included Libertarian candidate Gary Johnson and Green Party candidate Jill Stein. In that poll, the results were almost identical to the latest survey. 41% supported Clinton and 34% supported Trump. Of the remaining two candidates, 7% supported Johnson, while 2% supported Stein. The remaining 16% indicated they would not want to vote for any of those four candidates.
In an additional questionnaire, around 66% of those surveyed believe the country is on the wrong track.
