With just five days left in the 2016 presidential race, a New York Times/CBS News poll published Thursday has determined that Hillary Clinton maintains her tight edge over Republican nominee Donald Trump. After weeks of bombshell reports, most voters surveyed said their minds had already been made up and that the news had no significant effect on their voting plans. More than 22 million Americans have already cast their votes. The margin between Clinton and Trump is slim: 45 percent of likely voters said they support Clinton, while 42 percent support Trump. That distinction is well within the poll’s margin of error. Coming in behind Trump, Libertarian candidate Gary Johnson has the support of 5 percent of likely voters. Jill Stein, the Green Party nominee, has 4 percent.
