As reported in U.S. News & World Reports, if Democrats are tempted to think that an election match-up between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump would be an electoral cakewalk, new research from Mercury Analytics shows that they should be careful for what they wish for.
Mercury Analytics, a technology-driven consumer research and political polling firm based in Washington, D.C. conducted a survey and ad “dial-test” of Trump’s first campaign spot among a national sample of n=916 “likely voters”.
The results show, that if the election were held today, between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump, Hillary Clinton has the edge, but would be facing a very tough competitor.
Almost 20% of likely Democratic voters would today cross parties and vote for Donald Trump,
They wouldn't do this, people said this about Obama in 2008 how he wouldn't get Clinton's voters if he beat her. And the ones that would were probably gonna vote for a republican anyway, like in West Virginia (a state that is 60% registered democrat but consistently voted republican since the 50s except for Bill Clinton).
No matter which democrat that wins, the other's supporters will go for them
Trump will probably milk the crisis in Cologne and friends to support his anti muslim agenda agenda and get as many people onto his side as possible . Poor US, their downfall is imminent if Trump is elected. Don't do it to yourselves Murica!!!!
I'm a democrat and if I could I would vote for Trump against Hilary since she's basically a Republican with a 'Democrat' label anyway.
wtf? hillary is definitely not as right wing as trump (actually, she's not really that right wing at all by american democrat standards), so no the vote would not have the same result.

Hillary may be more moderate than most Democrats but that doesn't mean she is a Republican. A quick Google search will tell you she leans left on a lot of things.

Hillary is far from being a Republican, most of her views are very left actually.

Most of those are just postures. Need I remind people that she voted for the Iraq War.
