[TexasTowelie]

CLEVELAND, Ohio - Hillary Clinton's lead in Cuyahoga County over Donald Trump widened this week following the first presidential debate, according to a poll by Baldwin Wallace University and cleveland.com.

Clinton's support nearly matches the landslide results posted by Barack Obama over Mitt Romney in the county four years ago.

A post-debate Battleground Cuyahoga poll conducted Tuesday and Wednesday found Clinton receiving 66.6 percent support from likely voters and Trump at 25.1 percent - providing Clinton with a 41.5-point advantage.

Clinton's lead over Trump was 38.5 points in a similar poll concluded a week ago

2. If she gets Ohio

Boy it would be huge if she turns Ohio back to blue by election day. Nate silver has Rump

all the horrible things he has said. Just shows how many stupid people we have in the
US that would put a 3 year old in charge of our country.

About the poll

The unscientific post-debate poll is the second under a new partnership by the Community Research Institute at Baldwin Wallace and cleveland.com.

Unlike scientific polls conducted previously by BW, this poll did not incorporate a random sampling to gather responses. Instead, the poll relied on cleveland.com readers to complete a series of questions. This allowed a quicker response to Monday's debate but does not allow for the calculation of a margin of error.

Steps were taken to make this polling method more reliable than typical instant online polls.

Only registered likely voters were included in the results. Adjustments were made to the polling samples and results to reflect Cuyahoga County's race, gender and age makeup -- a common technique in scientific polling. And people could not repeatedly fill out the survey.............................
