Polls show Perot
no threat to Clinton
NEW YORK (AP) — Polls released Monday showed Bill
Clinton maintaining a strong lead, with Ross Perot in single
digits and President Bush losing the ‘’bounce" ho got after
the Republican National Convention,
In a Harris Poll of 1,015 likely voters nationwide. 53 per
cent said they would vote for Clinton, 36 percent for Bush
and 9 percent for Perot If the election were now. The ADC
News-Washinglon Post poll had the candidates' percentages
in the same order. 48-35-9, with the remainder uncommitted
to any of the throe.
Both polls were taken Friday through Sunday, after Perot
ro-cntored the campaign. The margin of sampling error was
plus or minus 3 percentage points for Harris. 4 points for the
ABC-Past poll of 799 likely votors.
Perot's support was down from 19 percent In a Harris sur
vey two weeks oarllor. The poll indicated that further slip
pago of Perot's support could help Clinton, who was named
by 56 percent of Perot backers as their second choice.
Overall. 31 percent of likely voters in the Harris Poll rated
the job Bush is doing as excellent or pretty good, which is
close to his July low point, after a rebound to 41 percent in
August.
