Of course, but a 5 point popular vote margin turning into a 166 EV loss is impossible considering that Clinton will pile up her big margins in Cal., NY, Mass, Ill and Wash/Ore. I do not think it possible for Trump to overcome Clinton’numbers in those states, gather enough votes to win the popular vote by 5 points and still LOSE the EVs in a landslide. Could he lose lije Gore? Yes. But lose like Dukakis? ???
It’s a battle for any republican to win with CA, NY, and IL automatically going democrat with 104 electoral votes. Trump has a good chance of doing it.
The map on the LA times is interactive, so you can click on a state to change it so I clicked on the states they had going to Hillary and changed them to Trump, and still came up short a few so had to click on one more that he has a good chance of winning. It’s hard to get to 270 if you’re an R. Try it!
