Florida is ALREADY VOTING. Surprised there are no Trump voting parties.

I’m emotionally invested now - I can’t help but worry. When I got to Delray Beach last week I was mortified when I saw the neg ads one after another, repeating several times an hour.

The "Early voting favors Trump" is due to two factors. The first is enthusiasm. The second that even with the debates, a Trump Voter is still a Trump Voter.

The RNC has squandered any goodwill with the voters, by giving us Bush III followed by Rubio as their selection preferences. Since neither Bush III or Rubio are free of the 'ESTABLISHMENT', they have no chance. This is the Anti-Two Party System year.

Ok thanks.

I heard that on Hannity earlier also. I’m surprised.

You know that not in all states has Trump under performed his poll averages.

In almost every closed primary or caucus, Trump's competitors do much better against him than the polls indicate. In fact, on average, there is an 9-1/2 point swing in the lead away from Trump and toward the closest challenger. To be fair, Kansas skews that number a bit, but only by about 2 points. And Florida is a closed primary.

It won’t matter if Trump takes Florida by 1% or 10%.

True - but if he is within 5% or less in the polls by next Tuesday, I would bet he will lose, based on past performance.

Trump over performed in Alabama, Georgia, South Carolina, NH, Nevada and Massachusetts.

All open primaries - in closed primaries, there is about a 7-9 point swing against Trump from the polls to the actual vote. And Florida is a closed primary.

Trump doing very well in Florida. Trump FL counter ads are hitting the air waves. Only a week to go where the foam party girl Rubio goes down.

Oh it’s just begun. I have family and friends on the ground in Mississippi and they have been doing some internal polling, last week in LA and this week in MS. They just emailed me and said Trump is dipping and Cruz is rising and shockingly Kasich is doing well in the college towns. Now, the internal polling they did in LA, was spot on, but I’m afraid they may be off in MS since Cruz was too sick to make it there today. However I don’t think it will be mirror the RCP polls exactly either.

That depends on how you measure success...Cruz got the lowest winning percentage for a home stater in 104 years and its not like Texas isn’t gonna vote Republican in November.

You’ll always have Maine though...
