THE PETE WILSON PROJECT:
California poll: Donald Trump hitting 'historic' lows in presidential race (Matthew Artz, 07/07/2016, San Jose Mercury News)
Trump, who at least temporarily has shuttered his California campaign offices, trails Clinton by 30 points in a two-person race and by 24 points when Libertarian Party candidate Gary Johnson is thrown into the mix. [...][I]t's hard to fathom Trump prevailing when the poll shows him trailing Clinton among California Latinos 75 percent to 12 percent in a two-person race. With Johnson included, Trump's share of the Latino vote sank to just 9 percent.That's a long slide from the days of Ronald Reagan, who won 40 percent of Latinos in 1980."When you are getting single-digit support from a constituency that is 25 percent of registered voters and increasing, that is almost insurmountable," DiCamillo said.
