Clinton's TV Debate Hat-Trick

The TV debates in this election have proven to be some of the most chaotic, fractious and at times outright nasty to ever take place. Last night's was certainly no exception, with Republican candidate Trump furthering his claim that the election is rigged and refusing to say whether he would accept the result come November 8. Over the three debates, CNN and ORC have conducted flash polls which, as the Statista infographic below shows, have all been won by Clinton. The trend, however, is a gradually resurgent Trump - going from 27 percent in the first debate to 39 percent in the last.
