Straw Poll: No Clear Winner in First Presidential Debate
By 270toWin Staff
September 27, 2016
This is a close election, with a divided electorate, and last night's performance only served to reinforce already made-up minds. That's one way to interpret our closely divided straw poll, which found no clear winner of the first presidential debate.
With over 6,000 votes cast (after removing duplicates), Donald Trump has received 50.8% of the vote, while Hillary Clinton is at 49.2%.
The voting is still open. We'll update the results later today.
