That's compared with a combined 64 percent of voters who say they have concerns about Hillary Clinton's use of a private email server during her tenure as secretary of state.

Asked which problem concerns them the most about Trump, 33 percent say it's not having the right temperament to be commander-in-chief; 27 percent say it's his controversial comments about women, immigrants and Muslims; and 13 percent say it's his praise for Vladimir Putin.

For Clinton, 36 percent say they're most concerned about her judgment when it comes to dealing with Syria, Iraq and Libya; 29 percent say it's her use of a private email server; and 9 percent say it's Clinton's recent comment about Trump's supporters.
