FOR RELEASE: JUNE 29, 2016

HATE WINNING, AS CLINTON-TRUMP RACE TOO CLOSE TO CALL,


QUINNIPIAC UNIVERSITY NATIONAL POLL FINDS;
NEITHER CANDIDATE WOULD BE GOOD PRESIDENT, VOTERS SAY
Democrat Hillary Clinton has 42 percent to Republican Donald Trumps 40 percent too close
to call as American voters say neither candidate would be a good president and that the
campaign has increased hatred and prejudice in the nation, according to a Quinnipiac University
National poll released today.
This compares to results of a June 1 national poll by the independent Quinnipiac (KWINuh-pe-ack) University, showing Clinton edging Trump 45 41 percent.
When third party candidates are added to todays survey, Clinton gets 39 percent with
Trump at 37 percent. Libertarian Party candidate Gary Johnson gets 8 percent and Green Party
candidate Jill Stein gets 4 percent.
The 2016 election has increased the level of hatred and prejudice in the U.S., 61
percent of American voters say. Another 34 percent say it has had no impact. Of that 61
percent, 67 percent blame the Trump campaign and 16 percent blame the Clinton campaign.
It would be difficult to imagine a less flattering from-the-gut reaction to Donald Trump
and Hillary Clinton, said Tim Malloy, assistant director of the Quinnipiac University Poll.
This is where we are. Voters find themselves in the middle of a mean-spirited, scorched
earth campaign between two candidates they dont like. And they dont think either candidate
would be a good president.
American voters are deeply divided along gender, racial, age and party lines. Women
back Clinton 50 33 percent while men back Trump 47 34 percent.

Quinnipiac University Poll/June 29, 2016 page 2


White voters back Trump 47 34 percent. Black voters back Clinton 91 1 percent and
Hispanic voters back her 50 33 percent. Voters 18 to 34 years old go Democratic 48 23
percent, while voters over 65 years old go Republican 51 35 percent.
Democrats go to Clinton 89 3 percent, as Republicans go to Trump 84 6 percent.
Independent voters are divided with 36 percent for Trump and 34 percent for Clinton.
Both top candidates get negative favorability ratings, 34 57 percent for Trump and
37 57 percent for Clinton.
Trump will not be a good president, American voters say 58 35 percent.
Clinton will not be a good president, voters say 53 43 percent.
American voters say 58 33 percent that Clinton is better prepared to be president than
Trump; 53 33 percent that she is more intelligent and 46 37 percent that she has higher moral
standards. But voters say 45 37 percent that Trump is more honest and trustworthy and 49 43
percent that he is a stronger leader.
Looking at who would best handle important issues, American voters say:

52 40 percent that Trump would be better creating jobs;


50 45 percent that Clinton would be better handling immigration;
52 39 percent that Trump would be more effective handling ISIS;
51 42 percent that Clinton would better respond to an international crisis;
46 percent would trust Clinton more on sending U.S. troops overseas, while 44 percent
would trust Trump more;
54 35 percent would trust Clinton more to make the right decisions regarding nuclear
weapons;
46 43 percent that Clinton would do a better job getting things done in Washington.
The matchup numbers say tie and Trump is perceived as a job creator. But Clinton is

seen as better prepared for the top job, better in an international crisis, managing immigration,
making Washington functional, and keeping the nuclear codes under lock and key, Malloy said.
From June 21 27, Quinnipiac University surveyed 1,610 registered voters nationwide
with a margin of error of +/- 2.4 percentage points. Live interviewers call land lines and cell
phones.
The Quinnipiac University Poll, directed by Douglas Schwartz, Ph.D., conducts public
opinion surveys in Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Florida, Ohio, Virginia,
Iowa, Colorado and the nation as a public service and for research.
