Washington (CNN) — Hillary Clinton is edging out Donald Trump in New Jersey, but a sizable group of voters is looking for alternatives to each major party candidate, according to a new poll from Monmouth University.
The poll, released Tuesday, found Clinton beating Trump 38%-34% if the election were held today. A sizable group (15%) also said it would vote for alternatives, including Libertarian nominee Gary Johnson (5%), Green Party candidate Jill Stein (4%) or some other, unnamed alternative (6%).
Clinton only up by 4 in deep blue New Jersey? The Democrats should be in a panic right now if they aren't already.
I was in southern NJ last weekend (the shore). I was amazed at how many Trump bumper stickers I saw on the Garden State Parkway. On Long Beach Island, I saw a few cars with TRUMP 2016 painted on the back windshield.. it was then I decided NJ may be in play.
CNN is where all the Hillary lovers tune to. They never criticize her for anything and have so called journalists on hand to defend her just in case someone gets out of line and says something other than praising about her.

The Mexican judge remark was the final straw. It screams to Hispanics that no matter your success, to men like Trump you are a Mexican first and your accomplishments will always be suspect. Trump does the same with Blacks with his birther talk and with women by dismissing people like Martinez and Warren and ridiculing Fiorina for her looks. All of these groups are paying attention and will not be voting for Mr. Bigot/Racist/Misogynist come November.
Okay, here's the thing. I don't know your ethnic background but let's assume it's Irish. If someone were talking about you and mentioned that you were Irish, how would you view that? Would you say that you will always be seen as Irish first and your accomplishments will always be suspect?
If you think that no Hispanics will vote for Trump---think again.
Clearly in the context of ffdtrump's campaign (i.e., based on his previous inflammatory rhetoric) this comment regarding the judge is just more of the same. Ponderosa is spot on.

Who can say when it comes to Trump and his followers?
Truly, I think if Trump were to say in his next interview that he is going to utterly ravish Hillary once she sews up the nomination, Trump supporters would cheer just as wildly, Trumps poll numbers would rise, and none of them would really know why..., because it doesn't matter to Trump supporters what Trump says!
Even better if the rhetoric is more outlandish and less meaningful than before!
Count me in as a Trump supporter who doesn't care what he says. I already know who to vote for if I care about our immigration, terrorist, and trade problems.
....It screams to Hispanics that no matter your success, to men like Trump you are a Mexican first and your accomplishments will always be suspect......
Mexican? Why would a Cuban American care?
i.e. It's nonsense.
