why researchers need a few willing volunteers. to decision 2016 where a new poll shows a pretty tight race for the white house. the pew research center poll shows. hillary clinton getting 41-percent of the vote and donald trump getting 37-percent. it also includes libertarian candidate gary johnson, as well as the green party's jill stein. in late june, clinton's lead was 9-points. but stein was not an option in that survey. that poll suggests.the trump campaign might be in some trouble. catherine heenan is here with the latest on both the clinton and trump campaigns today. it's probably no coincidence that donald trump not only made recent changes to his campaign staff -- he's said to finally be buying some ad time. trump has been trying to get back on target after the shake- up - and the shaky polls. at a south carolina rally tonight - he suggested for the first time that he regrets some of his heated campaign statements. >> catherine:as for hillary clinton - her camp announced today that if elected, the clinton foundation will stop taking donations from foreign and corporate interests.

the secretary of state's office expects registration to pick up as the election grows closer. the political rhetoric this election season compared to others has been striking but now commentary in the form of artwork has brought the presidential campaign to a new level. this morning. identical life- size statues of donald trump -
