Hillary Clinton, who is expected to announce a run for the White House within the next 10 days, is down in favorability, according to a new poll.
"That's why it is difficult to see Secretary Clinton's slippage as anything other than a further toll on her image from the furor over her e-mail," Quinnipiac University Poll Assistant Director Peter A. Brown said.

Hillary Clinton’s popularity is slipping in a number of key swing states, according to new polls from Quinnipiac University.
Clinton’s favorability ratings are underwater in Iowa and Colorado and have slipped in Virginia, three major battleground states. Pluralities of voters in the trio of states say Clinton isn’t honest and trustworthy, a worrisome sign as she moves toward making her presidential bid official.
"Ominous for Hillary Clinton is the broad scope of the movement today compared to her showing in Quinnipiac University's mid-February survey. It isn't just one or two Republicans who are stepping up; it's virtually the entire GOP field that is running better against her,” Quinnipiac University Poll Assistant Director Peter A. Brown said in the poll’s release.
"That's why it is difficult to see Secretary Clinton's slippage as anything other than a further toll on her image from the furor over her e-mail."
Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) has also seen a boost in his numbers, though the poll was conducted during his presidential announcement and likely reflects good press he got out of his official rollout.
Clinton has fallen behind many of her potential Republican rivals in Colorado and Iowa, two states where she led them the last time the states were polled in February, though in Virginia she continues to lead the GOP field.
The former secretary of state is expected to officially announce her presidential campaign sometime in the next 10 days.
