Exactly. That’s why results from poor areas came back so late.
Same thing happened in Va when McAuliffe got elected. He won in the last 20% of the vote.

Exactly, it seemed to me they have it down to a science. They drill down into key precincts in swing states.

If you listen to Joel Skousen he believes they digitally disappeared many million votes.

I believe it.

I’ve read some commentary that if Trump carries OH, he will most likely also carry MI and PA, as the demographics are similar. Lots and lots of blue collar, working class voters in those states who are FED UP and who’ve come to understand the Dems are hellbent on destroying what’s left of their jobs and lifestyles.

I don’t know that any disappear. They just stuff the box in urban areas. The problem is that it costs a lot of money and you get some embarrassing illegal votes (like dead people). They ban Republican election judges from the precincts.
The Republicans should start a rumor that they pay their captains double the amounts that the Democrats pay...because the captains are white. Then sit back and watch the shiite storm.

Looking into this, it's a different issue - it's the Senate race, and the part where the Dems are trying to take back the Senate.

Ted Strickland committed an unpardonable sin when he came off the message which Hillary was having health issues - he said at a Kaine rally that Kaine was ready to step into the Commander-and-Chief shoes - which reignited the Hillary health issue that the Dems were trying to snuff out - even to the point of getting Dr. Drew fired.

Joe and Mika said the next day that by saying that Strickland ended his chances of going to the US Senate.

Dems are about message discipline. You'd better say the party line with a straight face, even if it's a ridiculous lie, if you want to advance in the party.

Agreed. It looks like her schedule will be no more than 1-2 days a week from this point forward, and you can’t cover much territory on that limited itinerary. Making matters worse for Cankles, many of the places she needs to campaign (New Mexico, Colorado, Nevada) are 3+ hours from her home base. Add in the travel time to/from those locations and the fatigue factor, and she will be further limited.

However, I can see how they will try to spin it. Any sort of success by HRC tomorrow night will be depicted as a TKO, and the usual pollsters will trot out some surveys showing her regaining a lead. The supposed “gap” will be used to justify Hillary’s front porch campaign. Of course, they’ve tried this before; they said Colorado was in the bag a month ago and announced plans to stop ad buys in the state. Now, Colorado is very much in play and she has resume spending money and campaigning in the state, or cede it to Trump.

Agreed. If she isn’t campaigning in Ohio it’s because she doesn’t have to worry about it.

See the recent news that Ohio must, per a federal court,quit purging registration on rolls? No remedy at this point to the purged except to sue if the election doesn’t go their way.

Hillary takes Ohio via the ballot or the courts.

Wasn’t Ohio where all of the vans full of Somali voters were spotted?

She’s already lost all of the rust belt sans IL and MN she just doesn’t know it yet.

Short of Trump imploding during the debate tomorrow, there is no path to 270 for Hillary.. Hasn’t been for weeks. At this point her only option is to try to minimize the humiliation of the loss and try to help down ticket so that R’s don’t wind up with 60 senate seats and a massive majority in the house.

Trump makes it through the debate without imploding, Hillary will be lucky if she keeps her loss within single digits and Trump can spend Oct building his coat tails so when he takes office in Jan can be no doubt who is running the show and where the public stand.

The funny thing is the “battleground” states were never the battleground from day one. FL, OH, NC were never going to go to Hillary. The base model that 2012 was the staring point was wrong from day one and that’s why the talking heads and pundits have been so damned off this entire election.

They just couldn’t open up to the reality that 2012 had nothing to do with 2016 and using it as a starting point was laughable.

Did someone tell her that they padlocked the cemeteries, and the zombies won’t be able to vote for her?

In 2012 the Obama team, in my opinion, stole Ohio thru threats of regarding the Obama phones. All holders of those phones were advised by team Obama that if their name was not on the list of those having voted after the election, their phones will be cancelled. There are more that 100,000 such phones in Ohio. You know the rest.

My Hometown of Milwaukeestan has No-Go areas. We moved out in 1970.

Such a shame. It really was something in its day. But, that’s what Democrats do; ruin everything they touch.

"Trump makes it through the debate without imploding, Hillary will be lucky if she keeps her loss within single digits and Trump can spend Oct building his coat tails so when he takes office in Jan can be no doubt who is running the show and where the public stand."

I agree with this. Ever since Cankles collapsed in the van, the Democrat protocol has been to avoid a Trump mandate, or worst case scenario, a McGovern/Mondale wipeout...

Yep—

I’d include Virginia on the list as a possibility as well, but one of those seven either will be with him crossing the line or he isn’t crossing. Everything after that is gravy.
