Trump and Clinton supporters differ on the major issues they believe are important for the country

Washington (CNN) Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton has a narrow nationwide lead against her Republican rival, Donald Trump, in a four-way match-up that includes third-party candidates, according to a new poll released Thursday.

The Pew Research Center survey finds that if the election were held today, 41% of those surveyed would support Clinton, 37% would support Trump, 10% would back Libertarian candidate Gary Johnson and 4% would back Green Party candidate Jill Stein.

Additionally, women surveyed back Clinton over Trump 49% to 30%, respectively, while men support Trump 45% to 33%.

However, out of those surveyed, only 27% believe Trump would make a "good or great president," while 55% believe he would be either "poor or terrible" -- 43% specifically said he would be a "terrible" president. Only 15% said that Trump would be an "average" president.
