Trump Overtakes Clinton In Florida, New Poll Shows (Republican ballot lead 7,000)
The NY Post ^ | October 26, 2016 | Danile Halper

Despite a slew of polls showing Donald Trump losing to Hillary Clinton in the critical swing state of Florida, there’s a glimmer of hope for the GOP presidential candidate as a new survey released shows him in the lead.

Trump is beating Clinton 45 percent to 43 percent, the Bloomberg Politics Florida poll finds, when independent third party candidates are factored in......

The polls finds Trump is viewed more favorably (46 percent) in Florida than Clinton (44 percent) —

The Bloomberg Politics Florida Poll Oct. 21-24 surveyed 953 Florida residents who have already voted or say they will certainly vote. It’s margin of error is 3 percentage points.

But Clinton maintains a lead in the RealClearPolitics average of Florida polls, receiving support from 46.4 percent of the vote to Trump’s 44.8 percent. The Bloomberg poll is the first reliable poll since Oct. 4 to show Trump with even a slight lead.......

Meanwhile, in the Florida Senate race, the Bloomberg poll finds former GOP presidential hopeful Sen. Marco Rubio with a sizable lead over Democrat Patrick Murphy, 51 percent to 41 percent.

The poll also finds that 64 percent of Florida voters believes the nation is going on the “wrong track,” while only 29 percent believe the US is headed in the “right direction.”

Twenty-one percent of Florida believes the biggest issue facing the US is the “terrorist threat from the Islamic State, also known as ISIS,” while 17 percent believe it’s “unemployment and jobs,” 15 percent health care and 13 percent “A decline in real income for American workers.”

While this is good news for us, I wonder if putting out these kinds of numbers prior to Election Day presents a target for voting fraud. It gives the Democrats a known deficit, and I’m concerned that a box of 7001 “un-counted ballots” might suddenly appear out of some precinct heavy on Democrats.

These people will deny Trump is winning even after he wins.

Just sent in my early ballot for Trump/ Pence this afternoon. I also voted for Gaetz for congress, but I left senate blank. No vote for Little Marco.

Not going to reward total failure and naked ambition. If other people want to retain him as senator, that’s up to them.

GO TRUMP!

there’s a glimmer of hope

From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
A light from the shadows shall spring.

They all know how many numbers of votes they need to produce from the state election web site. It’s public information updated every 24 hours. Believe me, they know.

Besides, the people who will do this are employed in all of the ‘key precincts’ as full time or especially as temporary workers for the election. The long term retired volunteers appear to be gone. They have been replaced predominantly with young minority women.

The Democrats have spent their wad. Everyday they can bring out ten porn stars who claim they were assaulted by Trump and it won’t matter. The only people who believe those whores are already voting for Clinton.

There in lies the rub. With early voting, there's plenty of time to "manufacture" votes. I don't care for it.

Early voting should be abolished.

Amend the Constitution to have voting on the first Saturday and Sunday of November, with final totals reported on the following Tuesday.

One of Mitten's problems was his religion. Many evangelicals recoiled at the thought of a Mormon pres.

With Trump, it's like, oh what the heck.

You don’t need to amend the Constitution. An act of Congress will suffice.

I am in control of one vote, mine, and I withheld it from this useless moron. I’ve no need for him.

This too shall come to pass when the dead and illegal votes are counted. There are 53’ tractor trailers packed with Hillary votes on its way to FL, PA, and OH.
