Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton is holding on to her six point lead (47% to 41%) over Republican Donald Trump despite the announcement by FBI director James Comey last week that the FBI was looking into more e-mails that could be "pertinent" to the investigation of Clinton’s private e-mail server.
That is according to the latest NBC News/Survey Monkey tracking poll.
