Poll: Clinton pulls ahead of Trump after convention

Hillary Clinton has taken the lead in the presidential race following last week's Democratic convention, according to a CBS News poll out Monday.

The former secretary of State has the support of 46% of registered voters, compared to 39% for Trump. The new numbers break a tie the two candidates were in (42%-42%) last week after the Republican convention.

Clinton got a 4-point bump following her party’s Philadelphia convention, according to the CBS News survey. Trump got an initial 2-point bounce after the Republican convention, but he has since dropped.

Clinton’s post-convention bounce is similar to Obama’s in 2008 and 2012. In 2008, he went from 45% to 48% post-convention, and in 2012 he went from 46% to 51% post-convention, according to CBS News' polling.

The poll was conducted July 29-31 of 1,131 registered voters. The margin of error for the registered voters is plus or minus 3 points.
