Hillary is doing steadily worse in swing state polls [View all]

In a new CO poll she trails big time.

Colorado could be big trouble for Hillary Clinton.

The Democratic front-runner in the 2016 presidential race trails all the leading Republican contenders by 11 percentage points or more in the key swing state, a new Quinnipiac University poll shows.

In Florida, she also trails. And Ohio.

She'll be the democratic nominee.

Whether she can win the general election, well, that's another story.
