CLARION, Pa. (EYT) — While not always willing to share their thoughts on camera, Clarion County voters have many opinions on presidential candidates Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump.

There are more than a few who find neither candidate inspiring enough to be interested in them.

For those who will make a choice, Austin Blose says to get out there and vote, no matter who you support.

Blose explained why he is voting for Trump.

“Hopefully he makes America great again, brings back the jobs like he says he will, fix the tax code like he says he will,” Blose said. “With Hillary, things are just going to be the same.”

On the other hand, Terry Morrow likes Clinton’s temperament, and the fact that she’s been “through the mill and has seen a lot of things and has the experience….and that is basically the opposite for Trump. He doesn’t have it.”

With the November 8 election on the horizon and the last debate set for Wednesday, many still aren’t sure who they will vote for, but the one consensus is that voters will likely be picking against a candidate rather than choosing one.

The latest national polls show Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton leads Republican challenger Donald Trump by double digits.

A poll by NBC News and the Wall Street Journal has Clinton with 48 percent among likely voters, while Trump is drawing 37 percent. Libertarian candidate Gary Johnson has seven percent, while Green Party’s Jill Stein has two.

In a two-way race, Clinton leads Trump, 51 to 41.

A poll by ABC News and the Washington Post shows Clinton leading 47 to 43.
