Hillary Clinton has the edge among people who aren’t planning to vote in November’s election, according to a new Bloomberg Politics national poll.

The survey found 38 people of people not intending to vote support Clinton while 27 percent of them back Donald Trump if they decided to cast a ballot.

Clinton could also benefit if they can convince more non-white voters to turn out to the polls 40 days from now, the poll shows.

More than half of non-white people are likely voters in the poll and 48 percent said they don’t plan to vote. Nearly three-quarters of white people surveyed said they are likely to vote in November and just over a quarter said they don’t plan to cast a ballot.

The poll also found that a majority of people under the age of 35, 54 percent, are more likely to be non-voters and 46 percent are likely voters. http://www.cbsnews.com/news/poll-hillary-clinton-has-the-edge-among...
