57% : The pollster showed that Trump has "made significant inroads among" black voters, at plus-8.1 points, and high school-educated voters, at plus-13.9 points.
54% : Trump also made inroads with seniors aged 65 and older, at plus-8, the data show.
41% : Based on the data, according to TIPP, Trump is not anticipated to win the popular vote because Democrats still have a significant edge in New York state and California, while Republican-controlled Texas only "partially offsets" those two states.
36% : "Some media outlets ignore this crucial fact to sell the narrative that Trump can't win," the pollster said.
