One stunning stat is the X-factor in Hillary Clinton's soaring lead over Donald Trump [View all]

She's starting to appeal to ALL women now!

Business Insider, Pamela Engel

Trump, the Republican presidential nominee, trailed Clinton by 30 points among white women with a college degree in a Monmouth University poll released Monday. Trump had only 27% of the vote among that segment of the electorate, while Clinton, the Democratic nominee, had 57%.

While that might not look surprising on its face, Mitt Romney, the Republican nominee in 2012, won that voter group by 6 points.


Monmouth broke down the numbers:

"The main factor behind the current GOP nominee's underperformance among white voters is his lack of support among white women with a college degree. Trump holds sizable leads among white men without a college degree (31 points; 56% to 25%), white men with a college degree (11 points; 45% to 34%), and white women without a college degree (17 points; 49% to 32%).
