The critical swing states of Colorado, Florida, Pennsylvania and Ohio all went to President Barack Obama in 2012. Donald Trump must win Florida and Ohio if he has any shot to get to 270 electoral votes.

(Quinnipiac University) – According to a Quinnipiac University Swing State Poll released on Monday, likely independent voters shift to Democrat Hillary Clinton, giving her the lead over Republican Donald Trump in the critical swing states of Colorado, Florida, and Pennsylvania and moving her into a tie with Trump in Ohio,

“Secretary Clinton has held or increased her lead following the second debate,” said Peter Brown, assistant director of the Quinnipiac University Poll.

“Obviously the allegations by a number of women about Donald Trump’s behavior have taken a toll among some of those who had been in his column.”
