Three separate polls released Thursday show Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump are at a virtual in New Hampshire with just five days to go before Election Day.

The latest poll out of UMass Lowell/7News shows Trump and Clinton in a dead-heat with 44 percent apiece, while Libertarian candidate Gary Johnson and Green Party nominee Jill Stein trail significantly at 5 and 4 percent respectively. The poll, conducted from Oct. 28 to Nov. 2, was carried out entirely after FBI Director James Comey's revelation last week that the bureau was investigating new emails related to Hillary Clinton's tenure as secretary of state. Clinton led by six points in the poll's last iteration from Oct. 7 to Oct. 11.

The findings corroborate a Boston Globe/Suffolk University poll released earlier Thursday, which showed both of the major party candidates sitting at 42 percent among likely voters in New Hampshire, an improvement for Trump, who trailed Clinton by 2 percentage points in the poll’s previous iteration, conducted last month. Trump’s narrowing of Clinton’s advantage in New Hampshire mirrors a national trend in recent weeks of the Manhattan billionaire’s campaign finding firmer footing amid the resurfacing of the former secretary of state’s long-running email scandal.

Yet another poll, conducted by MassINC Polling Group and released Thursday, shows the race split by a razor thin margin, with Trump leading Clinton by a single point, 40 percent to 39 percent. Johnson is at 10 percent, Stein is at 3 percent, and a combined 7 percent of likely voters are undecided or prefer another candidate.

In terms of how recent controversies have impacted voting outlooks, the UMass Lowell/7 News poll found that 28 percent of registered and likely voters said they were less likely to cast their ballot for Clinton over the controversy, while a vast majority, 68 percent, said it did not make a difference

According to Boston Globe/Suffolk University findings, likely voters in New Hampshire were largely split over the controversy. Just under 49 percent of those polled said the revelation from the FBI director made them less likely to vote for Clinton, while 45 said it would not impact their vote. Among the state’s independent voters, 52 percent said the FBI’s announcement would make them less likely to vote for the former secretary of state while 40 percent said it would not.

In the state’s hotly contested Senate race, incumbent GOP Sen. Kelly Ayotte leads Democratic Gov. Maggie Hassan by 2 points, 44 percent to 42 percent, a statistical tie. Republican Chris Sununu leads Democrat Chris Van Ostern in the race to replace Hassan as governor, 41 percent to 37 percent.

The UMass Lowell/7 News poll included 901 New Hampshire Registered Voters with a sub-sample of 695 likely voters reached via cellphones and landlines. The poll's adjusted margin of error was 3.8 points for registered voters and 4.3 points for its sub-sample of likely voters. The Boston Globe/Suffolk University poll was conducted from Oct. 31 to Nov. 2, reaching 500 likely voters in New Hampshire via landlines and cellphones. The poll’s margin of error is plus or minus 4.4 points. The WBUR poll surveyed 500 likely voters from Oct. 29 to Nov. 1 and had a margin of error of plus or minus 4.4 percentage points.
