Donald Trump has cut further into Hillary Clinton's national lead, according to a new national survey released Tuesday.
Trump now trails Clinton by only 2 points, 47-45 according to the new NBC News/SurveyMonkey weekly tracking poll released Tuesday morning. Over the past week, Trump has halved Clinton's lead, which was 4 percentage points (47-43) in last week's poll.
The new poll comes as Clinton looks to nail down the Democratic nomination against Sen. Bernie Sanders, who is making one last play out in California ahead of the state's June 7 primary. Sanders has also said he would continue to fight for the nomination even after Clinton clinches the nomination.
The poll was taken between May 23 and May 29 of 12,969 registered voters and has a margin of error of 1.2 percentage points.
