RCP now gives him the lead. FiveThirtyEight still barely favors Clinton but has the projected EV 270-268 favoring Trump.

Good news is that FiveThirtyEight's new Polls-plus model still favors Clinton. That model factors in the convention bump. Still not that great news nor has that poll been used in other elections.
