Hillary Clinton holds a slim two-point advantage over Donald Trump in the battleground state of Nevada, according to the results of the latest Suffolk University poll of likely voters released Thursday.

The competitive Senate race to replace retiring Minority Leader Harry Reid is all tied up.

Clinton earned 44 percent support in a three-way race, while Trump took 42 percent, with 5 percent preferring Libertarian nominee Gary Johnson, a combined 2 percent selecting Independent American Party candidate Darrell Castle and unaffiliated candidate Rocky De La Fuente. 3 percent chose the Nevada-specific "none of these" ballot option, and 5 percent were undecided.

The gender gap persists in the latest Nevada poll, where Clinton leads among women, 44 percent to 39 percent, and Trump leads among men, 54 percent to 43 percent. Clinton leads Trump among voters between the ages of 18-34 (49 percent to 32 percent) and 35-49 (46 percent to 39 percent). They are tied with voters between the ages of 50-64 (44 percent to 44 percent), while Trump leads among those 65 and older (49 percent to 36 percent).

Clinton leads Trump with the same share and margin of voter preference in the POLITICO Battleground States Polling Average of surveys dating back to June, 44 percent to 42 percent.

Neither the Democratic nor Republican nominees are seen as honest or trustworthy by Nevada voters, with the former secretary of state at a net negative 16 points (38 percent to 54 percent) and Trump at a net negative 14 points (38 percent to 52 percent).

Asked whether they thought America is “great,” 73 percent of all likely voters said it was, while 20 percent said it was not, and 7 percent said they did not know.

Regardless of the candidate they are supporting, nearly six in 10 —57 percent— said Clinton is the most likely to be elected in November, while 28 percent said the same of Trump.

In the Senate race, Republican candidate Joe Heck and Democratic candidate Catherine Cortez Masto are tied with 37 percent each, with 1 percent each for independent candidates Tony Gumina, Tom Jones, and Thomas Sawyer, while 6 percent picked "none of these" and 14 percent are undecided.

The poll was conducted via landlines and cellphones from Aug. 15-17, surveying 500 likely voters. The margin of error is plus or minus 4.4 percentage points.
