Hillary Clinton is not just leading in the national polls. Four new polls in battleground states (states some think Republicans could win) show she has only jumped out to a lead in those states -- Florida, Pennsylvania, Michigan, and New Hampshire.
The new polls give Clinton a 4.4 point lead in Florida, a 13 point lead in Pennsylvania, a 9.4 point lead in Michigan, and a 15 point lead in New Hampshire. This has to be disheartening news for Trump, because he must win in these states (especially Florida and Pennsylvania) to capture the presidency.
The polls are:
New Hampshire -- WBUR / MassINC Poll
Michigan -- Detroit News / WDIV Poll
Pennsylvania -- Franklin & Marshall College Poll
Florida -- Suffolk University Poll
