Hillary Clinton has developed a double-digit lead over Donald Trump in the battleground state of Pennsylvania, according to new NBC/WSJ/Marist polling released Sunday.

In addition, this polling was conducted before Friday when audio was released featuring Trump making lewd comments about women and discussing his attempt to have an affair with a married woman.

In Pennsylvania, Clinton holds 49 percent compared to Trump who holds 37 percent. This is a larger than usual lead for Clinton in that battleground state. Meanwhile, Johnson trails behind with six percent and Stein even further with four percent. In a two-way contest, Clinton's advantage over Trump would be 12 points, at 51 percent to 39 percent.
