Words Voters Choose to Describe Hillary Clinton: ‘Liar,’ ‘Dishonest’

A new Quinnipiac poll has more bad news for theHillary Clinton campaign, with poll results showing voters think of Clinton as “dishonest” and a “liar.”
“What is the first word that comes to mind when you think of Hillary Clinton?” Quinnipiac asked. All three of the most popular answers were along the same lines: “liar,” “dishonest,” and “untrustworthy.” After those responses, Clinton nets a few positive responses, such as “experience” and “strong.” But then the negative qualifiers begin again, with responses like “crook,” “untruthful,” “criminal,” and “deceitful.”
The same question was asked of Donald Trump and Jeb Bush. The top three responses for Trump were “arrogant,” “blowhard,” and “idiot,” while the top responses for Bush were “Bush,” “family,” and “honest.”
The same poll found Clinton with low favorables. A majority of voters, 51%, say that they have an unfavorable opinion of Clinton while only 39% says they have a favorable opinion.

Majority of Iowa Republicans Oppose Path to Citizenship for Illegal Immigrants

The latest Quinnipiac University poll shows a sharp partisan divide on the issue of immigration between Republicans and Democrats in Iowa, with roughly two-thirds of Republicanssaying there should not be a path to citizenship for illegal aliens.

Among likely Iowa Republican caucus-goers, 46 percent said that illegal immigrants should be required to leave the U.S., 34 percent said they should be able to stay and have a path to citizenship, and 17 percent said that they should be able to stay but without a path to citizenship. In other words, a total of 63 percent of Iowa Republicans oppose a path to citizenship for illegal immigrants.
For likely Democrat Iowa caucus participants, 83 percent said illegal immigrants should be able to remain in the United States and have a path to citizenship, 9 percent said they should stay, but without a path to citizenship, and 8 percent said they should be required to leave.
“Iowa, with the caucuses that kick off the 2016 election, is a perfect example of just how differently Democrats and Republicans see completely different worlds,” said Peter A. Brown, assistant director of the Quinnipiac University Poll.
The poll was conducted from June 20 to June 29, 2015, via live interviews on both land lines and cell phones statewide in Iowa. There were a total of 1427 participants, comprised of 666 likely Republican caucus-goers and 761 Democrats. The margin of error for the Republican sample was +/- 3.8 percent, and for the Democrat sample was +/- 3.6 percent.
