This was 75-25 D just two weeks ago. How can this kind of shift happen without a like shift in the Presidential race???

Nate silver got lucky in catching fire during the 2012 election where the GOP candidate refused to even try and win.

The bastard Romney will rot in hell

In Louisiana, it looks like Bousanty, Fleming or Maness for U.S. Senate. Boustany and Fleming have been in Congress and as far as I can tell, did NOTHING to help stop the obama onslaught. Both voted for the cry baby for Speaker. Rob Maness is a new face and new blood. We shall see.

Smart.

The way to get rid of the RINOs is later, in the next primaries - replace them with conservatives, not with Democrats.

It’s easy calling an election when you have the results the week before. Like picking winners in professional wrestling, after the scripts come out.

My last polling numbers had Trump 55%, Hillary 33%, Johnson 7% Stein 1% Undecided 4%. Not affiliated with any campaign.

Vote fraud has been weaponized. They get away with it because the media allow them to get away with it. Demographic shifts and and de -Chritianizarion in certain states (CA, NY, WA, VA , others) will give the witch a huge electoral advantage. Comey’s treachery took momentum from Trump, as it was designed to do. Illegals and felons are “voting”, adding to the cheat margin. The 1982 Consent Decree gives Democrats the legal right to cheat in minority districts. Those are just a few of the reasons.

“Vote fraud has been weaponized.”

Yup....and most people will only realize it when it affects them personally or their family. Then they will scream.

I agree .. because I believe Trump is going to invite the “leaders” to the WH, and we’ll see how quickly they change their minds and decide to help Trump.

I have no idea what leverage he will use .. but I’m sure it will be effective.

“The bastard Romney will rot in hell”

Trump is right ...Romney got lazy and didn’t fight for it. I would hope that Americans can see how Trump fights; they don’t have to agree with him on everything, but look at how the man fights. He’s doing sometimes 5 rallies a day; think about it..25-30 plus rallies a week.

He’ll be in front of 700,000 this past month. America has to see that this man fights!!

I really like his 538 twitter feed. Lots of good stuff other than just polling. Give it a try.

because Americans realize that only a Republican Senate can try to slow or stop the Muslim hordes from overtaking America.

I think voter fraud is less rampant than what others on this board think. That said we are talking slim margins. Broward and Dade Co. in Florida and the Philly vote might just make the difference in this election. Worrisome.

“I can’t fathom why he won’t endorse Trump.”

I voted a straight GOP ticket in 2014. But it’s the same thing with my `pub house critter, Pence’s successor.
I came right out in an e-mail last week and asked him, “Are you or aren’t you endorsing the GOP nominee, Donald Trump?” No response.
Several Republicans will get my vote tomorrow, including Trump of course, and one good local `rat judge.

This critter will win, but with one less vote.

Nate “hogwash” Silver Drivel should just shut up. Who the hell is this guy to sway the vote for low information, uninformed voters? That is his only purpose, other than to make money off his site. Get lost jackass.

Best to control both chambers...but one's OK.And if it's only one the House would be better...that's where impeachment must start.

If necessary.

And you are who? Just another person on a computer keyboard making predictions? Or, do you really, actually, have inside the candidates poll numbers that they come up with? I think keyboard guy. So, your predictions are no better than mine, and I am a keyboard person also. Would I love a smashing Trump victory? You bet your KEYBOARD I do!!! I would love a Ronald Reagan 2d term smashing victory. I am a Believer in Jesus Christ.

I believe that today may very well be the defining day of my faith because I believe that if this slut is elected, she will start attacking all my fellow believers and we will become as Syria and the Middle East for we Believers in the Most High God. I think Klinton's hate of Christians will lead to persecution of Believers in Yeshua. I believe that she is a believer in the dark side. I believe that she is satanically indwelled with the Prince of the Power of the Air, Satan. I believe she is going to complete the destruction of this Republic. I served 20+ years in the Army, left my blood on the jungle floors of Vietnam for this Republic AS FOUNDED BY THE FRAMERS, NOT WHAT THE DIMOCRATS BELIEVE. I am ready for my God to come for His bride the Church and take us home. I think that is close and I pray to Heaven everyday that it is soon. In the twinkling of an eye as Scripture tells us. But, in the end, God is in control. His will shall be done.

I’m of the same mind.

At the polling location this morning there were signs for every candidate of both major parties, EXCEPT Trump.

I heard someone ask the GOP rep handing out voting guides were the Trump sign was and he said “I must have forgotten it, haha”.

Well I forgot to vote for Toomey.
