Early Colorado Polls – Clinton Up

National and state polls are coming in a flurry. After no public polling in Colorado since November, which showed Donald Trump ahead by 11 points of Hillary Clinton (Nov. 15 Quinnipiac), four new polls have appeared in the last two weeks, and two were published Wednesday.

Clinton is ahead in all of them, and substantially in the most recent polls from Fox and Monmouth.

While Clinton is surging in Colorado, her national polls have tightened and she and Trump are neck-to-neck in a number of battleground states. His lack of organization and advertising in Colorado means that making up ground here will be mostly dependent on his progress nationally.

Several organizations are now starting to publish forecasts of polling averages using difference approaches, and Clinton is ahead in them.
