Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton is leading Republican nominee Donald Trump in every national poll — including, apparently, among those too young to vote.
{mosads}According to the Scholastic Student Vote survey results released Tuesday, 52 percent of schoolchildren would rather see Clinton in the Oval Office, compared with 35 percent for Trump.
Another 13 percent of students wrote in “other” choices, which is above average, according to Scholastic.
Libertarian nominee Gary Johnson got about 2 percent of the vote.
Other votes were cast for Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) and Green Party nominee Jill Stein.
The student vote, which surveyed more than 150,000 of the nation’s schoolchildren from kindergarten to 12th grade, has been relatively accurate in predicting which candidate will be elected to the White House.
It has been correct in nearly every election since 1940, with the exceptions of 1948 and 1960.
The Scholastic Student Vote poll is not based on a scientifically designed sample and did not list a margin of error.
