Clinton Favorable Numbers Take a Hit

A new CNN/ORC poll finds more people have an unfavorable view of Democratic front-runner Hillary Clinton now than at any time since 2001.

“A growing number of people say she is not honest and trustworthy (57%, up from 49% in March), less than half feel she cares about people like them (47%, down from 53% last July) and more now feel she does not inspire confidence (50%, up from 42% last March).”

A new ABC News/Washington Post poll also finds Clinton’s personal attributes “continue to erode in the wake of stories about fundraising practices at the Clinton Foundation and her use of a personal e-mail server while at the State Department… Today, 41% of Americans say she is honest and trustworthy, compared with 52% who say she is not — a 22-point swing in the past year.”
