The poll has Clinton at 47 percent, Trump at 38 percent, Libertarian Gary Johnson at 3 percent, independent Evan McMullin at 2 percent, and Green Jill Stein at less than 1 percent.

Nine percent were listed as undecided.

Trump leads 46 percent to 38 percent among white voters, and gets 16 percent of African American votes.
