Trump 38%: Hillary 38%

Why am I not surprised?

Until Hillary and trump are formally chosen and they have selected their running mates, polls at this stage do not mean much for the general election. Trump is a loose cannon and unpredictable and what will campaign look like? Not the current freak show. His debate performances against Hillary will be another factor, he is not going to get away with his name calling and lack of specifics. Hillary will kill Trump in debates and how is the public (read men) going to react?

I agree except for the last line.

Hill can bury him with her knowledge but I recall watching the Ray-Gun Carter debates and Ronnie seemed a dolt compared to Carter. I thought Carter won each one. I was shocked to find that Americans prefer performance over substance.

That has not changed.

thanks for the comment.

If you dig into that data, there are lots of voters holding off committing at this point for either of the two front runners. Lots of them are independents, moderates, and non-whites. When it gets real, I don't think they will break Trump's way.
