Donald Trump Polls At 0 Percent In Detroit

Source: Cbslocal

DETROIT (WWJ) Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump has stumped repeatedly at large events in the city of Detroit, including a much-publicized visit to a church, in an attempt to reach the city’s black voters.

The net result?

As Trump visits metro Detroit again Friday, a new WDIV poll shows him with zero support — literally — inside the city of Detroit.

Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton polled with 89.7 percent support among Detroit voters. The poll surveyed 600 likely voters across Michigan, though far fewer of those respondents lived in the city. Overall, the survey found 7.7 percent of voters were still undecided.

Trump did lead Clinton, per the poll, in Macomb County and in northern Michigan.

Overall, the poll found the recent debate pushed Hillary to a 7 percent lead in Michigan. Trump, many watchers said, stumbled into shaky territory with African Americans when he defended “stop and frisk” policies that have been criticized as leading to racial profiling. Democrats, and the Clintons in particular, are traditionally favorites of African American voters.

Most right wingers are whiner losers. They take no responsibility (iraq war fiasco) and only whine

"O %" - I guess Hillary has that city locked up and put away. Bless Detroit - no deplorables in that basket.

That's happening in all the swing states, HRC is booming ever since and Donald's numbers are tanking like an anchor to the bottom of the ocean.

say the other day people aren't excited about Clinton. I think it was Perry Smalls and another caller. Well these numbers say different

Translation: He stumbled into suicidal territory. His racist white base might have loved that though because they are not targets. But have "government" target them and they go ballistic demanding "government off our backs" and other such hyperboles.

For those who aren't familiar, he isn't in Detroit today but at the Novi Showplace. Novi has little in similarity with Detroit.

His visit to Detroit turned out to be not so fruitful for him, I guess.
