Hillary Clinton received a boost in support after the Democratic National Convention and regained a narrow lead over her Republican rival, Donald Trump, according to a CBS News poll released Monday.
The poll showed Clinton, who just accepted the Democratic nomination for president, with 43% support compared with Trump, who had 41%.
Clinton gained with Democrats who had been undecided before the convention, but she didn't seem to woo voters who had previously supported Trump, according to CBS.
Last week, after the Republican convention, Trump had a narrow lead over Clinton in the same poll.
The poll focused on registered voters in 11 battleground states who had been interviewed over the internet. The margin of error was 5 percentage points.
Clinton also overtook Trump in the RealClearPolitics national polling average, with 45% support compared with Trump's 43%.
A Morning Consult poll released over the weekend showed similar results.
That poll showed Clinton with a 43% to 40% advantage over Trump, a flip from the outlet's prior poll, which showed Trump with a 44% to 40% advantage following the Republican National Convention.
Trump received a 6-point bump in the Morning Consult poll following the RNC.
