MSNBC shifted a recent national poll Tuesday showing Donald Trump leading Hillary Clinton to reflect the 2012 electorate, which in effect puts Clinton ahead of Trump.
The adjusted poll appeared during MSNBC’s “MTP Daily.”

The 2012 electorate is essentially the goal for the Clinton campaign as she hopes to bring out large numbers of minorities to the polls. Trump, on the other hand, hopes to inspire blue-collar whites who haven’t previously voted to go out to the polls.
