Hillary Clinton leads Donald Trump in Georgia, according to a new poll, the second recent survey showing her ahead in the state, which hasn't voted for a Democratic presidential candidate since 1992.

Clinton leads Trump by 7 points, 44 to 37 percent, in the JMC Analytics poll released Monday, with Libertarian nominee Gary Johnson taking 7 percent.

Another 10 percent of respondents were undecided, while Green Party candidate Jill Stein registered just 1 percent support in the poll.

Clinton leads Trump, 84 to 6 percent, among black respondents, while Trump leads her among white respondents, 52 to 25 percent.

Clinton also holds a big advantage among women, 48 to 35 percent, while men are more evenly split, 41 to 40 percent, in favor of Trump.

1. K&R!

2. I'm gonna treat that as an outlier

She'd have to be up 10-12 nationally for that to make sense. Pollster has a low rating from 538. Caution recommended!

3. I have to agree. And I think it would take more than 10-12 point national lead to get her

that margin in Georgia. I am thinking that an 11 point national win gets her a 1 point win in Georgia.

4. But Ok Monmouth just released showing her

Up 13 in a four way with LVs! Wow. 50/37/7/2

[StevieM]

5. Well then I think she will win Georgia, Missouri and Arizona. (eom)

6. Except for the fact that other polls are showing a similar trend

Other polls since the convention show her tied and +4 in Georgia.

Clearly there's something happening in Gerogia.

12. Not Georgia...

America. The crazy right wing religious wing nuts have finally managed to nominate someone who represents their values. They have wanted to since right wing radio indoctrinated them.

They are about to learn in the most painful way possible that only about 20% of Americans are crazy right wing religious wing nuts.

9. Make Georgia Blue Again!

538 Nowcast has Clinton winning the general election with a 95.4% chance. And her chances in Georgia are 73.8% if the election were today.

11. Stick a fork in Donald, he's done

If he loses GA and AZ, both states that are traditionally red, he has NO chance of victory in November. Unless, of course, he somehow manages to turn some blue states (such as PA) red, as well as winning VA, and all the other swing states. But considering how badly Trump does with minorities, such a scenario is nigh impossible.

That being said, I'm anticipating a huge landslide for Hillary, with her winning 400+ EVs.
