“Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton are in a tight race “..........
I have a basic question, how far ahead in the polls does Trump have to be before the communist media stops declaring it a “dead heat”? I read this morning that he was up +18 points in an LA poll. (Yes, I know that was only one poll but +18 sounds good. :) )
To normal people, an 18 point lead would be insurmountable as long as Trump doesn’t commit an unforced error. If we assigned numbers to illustrate the lead, it could be something like 50 to 32, or 60 to 42. Nothing tight about it.
We continually hear about the “popular” vote but the big prize will be claimed by winning the :electoral” votes, the one that Clinton has long held in her sights. Trump needs to concentrate all his remaining efforts in that direction, as he already seems to have the popular vote.
Don’t forget the “electoral votes”......how does he stand there?
"The project, which is based on a weekly tracking poll of more than 15,000 Americans, shows that the 2016 presidential race could end in a photo finish on Nov. 8, with the major-party candidates running nearly even in the Electoral College, the body that ultimately selects the president."
This seemingly is where it stands now. Perhapy by November 8 it will tilt heavily to Trump.
