Nevada Poll shows Clinton and Trump are in statistical tie

Nevada remains a battleground state in the presidential election, according to a new poll commissioned by the Las Vegas Review-Journal.

The first Nevada Poll of 2016 shows Silver State voters are closely divided three weeks before the start of early voting and less than six weeks from Election Day.

Forty-five percent of likely Nevada voters support Democrat Hillary Clinton and 44 percent support Republican Donald Trump, the poll released Saturday shows. Five percent support Libertarian Gary Johnson, 5 percent are undecided and 1 percent said they would support a different choice.

The poll, conducted by Bendixen & Amandi International, has a margin of error of plus or minus 3.5 percentage points. Because Clinton’s 1-point lead is within the margin of error, Clinton and Trump effectively are in a statistical tie in Nevada, putting the state’s six electoral votes in play.
