In three crucial states – Nevada, North Carolina and Ohio – the contest between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump remains incredibly close, according to polling data released by CNN/ORC today. In Nevada, 46% of likely voters said they planned to back Clinton while 44% said they would support Trump. In North Carolina voters were split 48-47 in favor of Clinton, while in Ohio Clinton attracted only 44% of likely voters compared with Trump’s 48%. The electoral map is looking increasingly impossible for Trump, according to the latest polling figures. Although an overall Clinton win is looking increasingly likely, according to the current polls, complacency could cost her the election.
