Hillary Clinton can now add Florida to the list of swing states where she leads Donald Trump in the polls. A new survey of the Sunshine State by Suffolk University out Thursday showed Clinton with a 6-point lead over Trump, pulling 48 percent support to Trump's 42 percent in the crucial battleground state. Nine percent of Florida voters remain undecided.
When third-party candidates are added into the mix, Clinton's margin shrinks somewhat but she still holds the lead. In a four-way race, Libertarian candidate Gary Johnson claims 4 percent, Green Party candidate Jill Stein gets 3 percent, Trump snags 39 percent, and Clinton leads with 43 percent.
