A new poll came out today for Oregon and Clinton is only ahead of Trump by 7 points. It seems like this is a pretty reputable poll, so this is good news for Trump. If he is only down 7 in Oregon, there is no way he is down nationwide.
That’s why the media is ruthlessly hitting him from every angle....NO ONE KNOWS WHICH side this SUCKER IS GOING TO SWING on the 8th!!! This isn’t your normal election...LOOK AT THE CROWDS he’s still attracting!!
If you would like more information about what's happening in Oregon, please FReepmail me.
Please send me your name by FReepmail if you want to be on this list.
Yes, other than the big cities and university towns in the northwest — it is all red.
Lies he is only up 3 In Texas lol
If Trump is outperforming Willard by 5% which I think is modest, consider the obvious that Hillary is under performing Obama by at least 5 to 8% (Millenniums and Blacks). Trump may be in the ballgame until the bitter end.
I have a friend on the elction board who told me that ballots are being mailed TODAY!
Vote early and drop it off at one of the collection sites. Don’t mail it!
Obama beat Romney by 12% in Oregon.
Obama beat McCain by 16%.
Had the opportunity here is southern Maryland the other night to count signs on my way to a soccer game, about 30 minutes travel time. Final score on signs:
Trump: 26
Hillary: 0 YES ZERO!
Bernie: 1
Yeah, Bernie had a sign and Hillary had none.
A 7-point D lead in OR corresponds to a 1 to 2 point R lead nationally. Which is right in line with the USC poll.
I’ve been told by a friend on Facebook who lives in New Jersey that Donald is doing very well there too. The only thing holding him back from really turning that state red is the northern part (close to NYC, I guess). The southern end is very Republican to begin with. With a poll like this in Oregon, it really shows the WaPo’s latest numbers to be possibly really out of whack.
I also wonder if Donald’s olive branch to Bernie supporters could help in Oregon and other blue states.
In 2000, he almost carried the state -- Nader took 5% of the vote which brought Bush to within a fraction of a percentage point of winning.
In 2004, Kerry beat Bush 51%-47%.
That was a close election nationally, 50%-48% Bush.
Perot was pretty strong in Oregon in 1992.
Some of Trump's support could be similar to the Perot voters of the 1990s.
That could explain why he's doing better in states like Oregon and Maine, than Republicans usually do.
It's hard to believe that he'd actually carry Oregon, though.
And only up three in Texas. So if you honestly think Oregon is in play then you must really be sweating the Lone Star State.
I’m in Oregon...I do NOT mail my ballot...I wait until the last day and drop it off at the elections office. However, the funny stuff that could happen in Oregon happens at the front end of the Registration process...when online voting takes place...and the registrations really aren’t checked...lotsa illegals IMHO.
Guess who’s at the Northern end.
I believe that a few blue States might be flipped. What is the oversampling in Oregon? If down 7, and D are +9, maybe Oregon will be red...

Interesting since Oregon hasn’t voted for a republican
presidential candidate since Reagan in 1984.
Would not be surprised if he took Oregon.
