Hillary Clinton leads Donald Trump in the majority of the general election early polling. According to RealClear Politics, Clinton leads Trump in the latest early polls by an average of 4.1 percentage points.

Clinton received additional good news this week when the FBI recommended to not press charges on her over her use of private email servers for classified information.

In light of the Dallas shootings, Trump released a statement.

“Our nation has become too divided. Too many Americans feel like they’ve lost hope. Crime is harming too many citizens. Racial tensions have gotten worse, not better. This isn’t the American Dream we all want for our children,” Trump said in the statement.

FiveThirtyEight’s projections have Clinton ahead of Trump by 6.4 percentage points and gives her a 78 percent chance of defeating Trump in the fall.
