Town hall presidential debate polls: October 10, 2016
A CNN/ORC poll found that 57% of voters who watched the second presidential debate between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump thought Clinton won, compared to 34% for Trump. A YouGov poll found a smaller margin for Clinton, 47% to 42%. Both are trying to win support from some 10-14 million voters that are still undecided.

Both data sets show undecideds are split evenly between Democrats and Republicans
In the 2012 election, the difference in the popular vote was just 4.9 million, so these 10-14 million voters are king-makers.
