Trump Pulls to 266-272 Virtual Electoral Tie Today
Breitbart ^ | 7/18/2016 | John Pudner

Posted on 07/18/2016 7:11:54 AM PDT by orchestra

With the exception of NBC, battleground polls released so far in July show voters are moving toward Donald Trump. In four battleground states — Iowa, Ohio, Florida, Pennsylvania — Trump gained an average of five points and caught Clinton in at least one poll in each state.

If that five point shift is quietly happening in North Carolina and New Hampshire, other battleground states where we have no recent non-NBC polls, then Trump is also quietly ahead in both, bringing him to within 266-272 in the Electoral Vote. He would still need to win Michigan, Virginia, Maine, Ohio or some other state to stop Clinton from accumulating the 270 Electoral Votes needed for a Presidential Inauguration.

Yep! I’m done with Kirk we just as well have that liberal wench Duckworth in the senate from Illinois because the only difference between Duckworth and Kirk is the letter next to their name.

I believe that there are a LOT of voters who won’t tell pollsters that they favor Trump, and that this just about HAS to account for a further 3% - 5% for him. Oh, and that doesn’t include people’s reaction to the Baton Rouge police assassinations. People are getting REAL sick & tired of what is going on.

Better yet, wait for the anti-Trump demonstrations that we’ll see starting tonight in Cleveland, and what’s going to happen in Philly for the Dem convention. All of the lunatics are going to be on display for tens of millions to see - and that CANNOT help Hillary.

In December I said Trump had the nomination in the bag.

It doesn’t take a genius to see he has the Presidency in the bag already here in July.

“I saw in a report that Rubio is scheduled to give a speech at the convention.”

I saw that too. The pictures need to be updated.

My prediction:

electoralmap2016

The gray states could go either way but not enough to help Clinton.

Nice. Was thinking more 320-330 but will gladly say that I made a huge mistake and oh! well we will have to accept 351 as Trump’s final number.

This isn’t going to be close folks... Hillary at best was 15 states and 180 EC votes, and she’s fallen wall below where she was going to be “at best” now 10 states and 120 EC votes would be a stretch for her.

Daily this is looking more and more like a 1980ish drubbing.

I remember the day Trump announced. Chuck Todd went on his show and ranted about how Trump was totally unqualified and did not know how to run a campaign and was going to defeat in a matter of weeks.

Things are looking really good for Trump.

Anyone have thoughts on Gary Johnson? I have a few FB friends who should be Trump supporters but keep posting Gary Johnson junk. Is he really 12-13%? He seems a little weasley. Right now, 3rd party is my main worry for Trump, 2nd in a Dem fast one, pulling Hillary out and a last minute replacement when they realize she’s going to lose.

Gary Johnson = “I don’t like either one of them”

He gets 1% tops, as always for Libertarian, and most of those will be dem-leaning (former Bernie supporters who aren’t high that day) vs rep-leaning, i.e. he saps more votes from the Beast, but basically a non-factor.

Good post and I agree with pretty much every state.

In think New York will be the one which shocks the media. Everything I hear from people on the ground in the state suggest Trump is going to win by a landslide there.

If NY goes Trump, It will be a short night until victory is claimed.

That’s a TALL order to accomplish...but sure hope it happens.
