A new opinion poll in the United States shows over one-fifth of Americans do not support neither Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton nor her Republican rival Donald Trump.
The Reuters/Ipsos poll, released on Tuesday, shows 22 percent of likely voters wouldn’t pick either candidate.
That lack of support is high compared with how voters responded to the poll during the 2012 US presidential election between Democratic President Barack Obama and his Republican rival Mitt Romney.
“Those who are wavering right now are just as likely to be thinking about supporting a third-party candidate instead, and not between Clinton and Trump,” said Tom Smith, who directs the Center for the Study of Politics and Society at the University of Chicago.
Previous polls have shown that Clinton and Trump are ranked among the most unpopular presidential candidates in America’s history.
