Virginians are embarrassed by their native son.

By all accounts, his performance at the VP was a total disaster and it shows in the poll out of VA.

If someone asked me in July if this was gonna happen, I would have said, no you’re crazy.

And now we’re seeing history being made.

I want to see Trump take NY and NJ. We could pop the champagne at 8 PM EST.

Title is wrong, UPI isn’t Reuters is it?

1. title is wrong

2. UPI doesn't have these polls on their website - or anywhere I can find. Where did Trump find these polls?

You are right, but respectfully, he IS behind unless we have the tsunami vote which can overcome fraud.

I have rang 150 door bells with my group and we have done 2500+ in OH.

I have this pair of sneakers that have holes and I will keep them. Life lesson -

Sorry about that... too bad I can’t fix the title. The mod could do it.

Being at 50% is a big deal.

I’d like to see him over it but I’ll take it.

People said Trump would never hit 50%. He’s proven them wrong again!

My question is why won’t they be factored into RCP? What are they lacking that other polls have?

Other polls show their methodology. I can't find any reference to these polls anywhere - even on UPI's own website. The only source is Trump's tweet. That's not really a source. How can it be averaged? We don't know anything about the poll or even if UPI actually did it.

October 3.

If I was a betting man, Trump is now over 50% in both states.

They were taken before the VP debate.

Thx Blue Turtle - Put that hat back on. I keep mine in the front seat and my .380 in my pocket.

I wear it to the store and when someone says “nice hat” - I give them a Trump yard sign.

One of our crew took a van full of Trump signs. Parked at a busy intersection with a sign that said “Free Trump Signs.” he gave out 700 in an hour.

In our County - Trump beat Kaisich in the Primary by 10+

I have a feeling the UPI POLL has the correct turnout model for TRUMP

That is why we are seeing such huge TRUMP leads in swing States


All along, we've heard about the 'monster vote', these are registered voters who typically don't vote. There are 40 million registered, white, Americans, typically blue collar, who do not regularly vote.

These are Trumps core demographic, and they appeared to come out in the primary's, but I have been looking, and not seen them in the polls. I think what is happening is that as the polls have switched to 'likely voters', one of the main variables in determining a 'likely' voter, is having turned out to vote in recent elections. I believe that is dropping these monster voters, out of the polls samples.


The UPI poll, along with the USC/LATimes poll, and the PPD poll, seem to include this monster vote. Notice where Trump is doing much better than the MSM polls, it's in states with lots of blue collar workers.

I believe that the UPI poll's, along with the PPD, and USC/LAT polls, show that the monster vote is real!

Virginians are embarrassed by their native son.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Kaine is NOT a 'native son' of Virginia:

Born in Saint Paul, Minnesota, Kaine grew up in Overland Park, Kansas, graduated from the University of Missouri, and earned a law degree from Harvard Law School

A 'native son' (in my book) is one born (at least) and raised in Virginia. His wife's hometown was Richmond so that's how, unfortunately, this piece of Liberal rubbish ended up in Virginia. It IS embarrassing that his political career started (& continues as a Senator) in Virginia. BTW, Kaine taught at the University of Richmond for six years, and his students included future Virginia Attorney General Mark Herring (our current disgraceful gun grabber AG).

Relax. That’s from yesterday and it will take several days for VP debate to make itself felt.

Within a week, including the second presidential debate Sunday night, things will be much more clear.

Cautiously optimistic, but I’ve been saying Virginia is a sleeper state for a while.

Trump intensity is extremely strong by the yard sign barometer in outlaying areas - both in quantity and size. They’re everywhere. I live in the Soviet epicentre of the state and you see very few pro-Hillary bumper stickers and yard signs.

We also have no major cities for Democrat machinery to GOTV. Remember, McAuliffe and Warner had huge polling leads that turned out to be nail biters on election day.

That’s what I could find too. Nothing about these supposed PA/VA polls. I think some idiot intern took hold of Trump’s twitter accounts - don’t think the polls are real.
