Trump up 10 points from one month ago, Hillary down 5 points. The poll commenced 2 days before the FBI announcement, so there are no questions about it in the poll. It does ask the usual question, is the candidate trustworthy? Hillary: Yes 34, No 64. Trump: Yes 42, No 56. A month earlier, same question: Hillary: Yes 37, No 59. Trump: Yes 31, No 65. So Trump gained 11 points in trustworthiness. Hillary lost 3 points in trustworthiness.

11/2/16, "Hampton University's CPP Latest Poll Shows VA Voter Shift from Clinton to Trump Post Email Investigation," Hampton University, Hampton, Virginia
"The latest Hampton University Center for Public Policy
(CPP) poll reveals that the FBI’s decision to reopen the Hillary Clinton
email investigation may have triggered a boost for Donald Trump with
likely voters in Virginia.
Democratic Presidential nominee
Clinton had a two point lead before the email news story broke on Friday
Oct. 28. She is now trailing three points behind Republican
Presidential nominee Trump.
With only six days left before the
November Presidential election, Trump has jumped ahead of Clinton,
erasing a 12 point deficit reported by the CPP in early October. This
surge for Trump demonstrates again how erratic the run for the White
House has been as we head into the final days of Decision 2016. This is
the first time Clinton has trailed in the CPP polls this year, the
latest poll was conducted Oct. 26-30.
When Virginians were asked
if the election were held today, 44 percent of those surveyed would vote
for Trump and 41 percent would choose Clinton, while a high percentage
of voters remain undecided (15 percent). This is a major shift from just
one month ago when Clinton led Trump by 12 points. (CPP poll, October
2016 - Clinton 46 percent , Trump 34 percent).
It must be noted that the poll began on Wednesday, Oct. 26, with 13 days
to go before the election. During this time, the news story about the
FBI reopening the investigation into email servers used by Clinton was
released on Friday, October 28th. While details were scarce, the news
did have an impact on the data collected during this time.
Most
Virginians felt the top priority of the next President of the United
States, no matter who it is should be working to improve the economy (47
percent) and create jobs followed by healthcare (19 percent)....
The poll was conducted by the Hampton University Center for Public
Policy (CPP) from October 26- 30, 2016 questioning 802 registered voters
who said they were “likely” to vote on November 8, 2016 in the Virginia
General Election.
The margin of error for the survey is +/- 4.57% for the full sample.

"Live interviews were conducted by telephone from October
26-30, 2016. The sample was attained from the registered voter list
for Virginia. The data was weighted to reflect the voter
registration population of Virginia ages 18 years of age and older.
This weighting combined with rounding is responsible for percentages
not always equaling exactly 100%. This phenomenon is most obvious in
the allocation by county as the very large number of response
categories provided a multitude of opportunities for rounding and
resulted in totals of significantly less than 100% (92%) overall.
The sample is also weighted to reflect the distribution of
phone usage for registered voters of Virginia (ie: cell phone only,
landline only, and mixed users). Following application of the
weights, the sample is post-stratified and balanced by key
demographics such as age, race, sex, education, marital status, and
party affiliation.
A total of 802 interviews were conducted October 26- 30,
2016; 401 using Landline sample and 401 using Cell sample.
The margin of error for the survey is +/- 4.57% for the full
sample."
