A new poll shows Donald Trump is in a virtual tie with Hillary Clinton in the battleground state of Florida, after weeks of bad press for Clinton and about a month after another poll showed Clinton comfortably ahead.

A Public Policy Polling survey released Wednesday puts Trump ahead 44-43 in a four-way race with the Libertarian and Green Party candidates. In a head-to-head matchup, Clinton grabs the lead over Trump, 47-46. Both gaps are within the survey's margin of error.

By comparison, a Suffolk University poll released roughly a month ago showed Clinton ahead 48-42.

Her drop in support in the Sunshine State comes after a rough couple of weeks for Clinton. The FBI released notes showing that the former secretary of state told authorities she didn't know that the "C" on an email meant "confidential," which led some commentators to say she was either lying or not competent to handle sensitive information.

It was also discovered that Clinton destroyed thousands of other emails, some that apparently included more confidential information, despite her claim that she never sent or received any sensitive data on her personal email. On top of all that, Clinton has been accused of hiding from the press, and only in recent days has she had any direct interaction with reporters.

Still, the PPP poll confirms that Trump will struggle in Florida because of his weakness with minorities. Among non-white voters, Clinton bests Trump by 49 points, 71 percent-22 percent. White voters still make up the majority of Florida's population, and Trump has a 27 point advantage with them, 60 percent-33 percent.

Among voters under age 45, Clinton leads Trump 57-31, and she keeps a 50-41 lead among voters under age 65. It's only Trump's 59-39 lead with seniors that keeps Trump competitive.

When asked if they would rather have another four years of Obama or a President Trump, Florida voters pick Obama by a 50-45 margin. And among voters who are undecided between Clinton and Trump, 54 percent would rather have Obama as president, and just 13 percent want Trump.

The survey of 744 likely Florida voters was conducted Sept. 4-6 and carries a margin of error of plus or minus 3.6 percentage points.
