Julie Pace: Clinton Losing Support with Women ‘Is Troubling’ for Her Campaign

‘If she’s really dropping with women that really calls into question that whole strategy’

MITCHELL: “Julie, how do you explain the decline in Hillary Clinton's polling, in particular in the Washington Post/ABC Poll where she has dropped 29 points among white women in just the last eight weeks?“

PACE: “Yeah, that data point is the most troubling for the Clinton campaign, not just in a primary but if they're looking ahead to a general election, because her strategy has been to basically replicate and in some cases, particularly with women, build on the coalition that President Obama put together. And if she's dropping with women, that really calls into question that whole strategy which is what her data operation is built around. You know, I think that women are probably seeing the same thing that voters broadly are seeing with Hillary Clinton, which is questions about her honesty, her trustworthiness, her authenticity. You saw Bernie Sanders; he's really trying to capitalize on that as well. I think both women and men are having both those questions.”
