Leading by ONLY 2.3%..... :-)
A 2.3% popular vote lead for Biden would probably mean a close electoral college victory for Trump.
Once again this year, Trump need not win the National Popular Vote.
This is around the time the “pollsters” start hedging their bets.
I thought the fake polls wouldn’t start trying to salvage some semblance of credibility for two or three more days.
I think the President has a shot at getting the national popular vote at too close to call.
The turnout of young and minority voters for Biden has been terrible in early voting—significantly below Hillary numbers on a percentage basis—more details here:

which means that Trump is well ahead.
The IBD/TIPP Poll is one of the most-trusted polls out there, which, coupled with today’s narrowing of the Creepy Joe lead over President Trump, should be a GREAT SIGN of GREAT THINGS to come in the Nov 3 election. Hold on to your hats!
Doesn’t this happen every 4 years? Polls tighten and by election day, it’s called a tossup?
Anything within 3% is OK.
Right now the 2.3% is almost exactly what the IBD/TIPP Poll’s final prediction was for the 2016 election. Should give us great hope, with several more days to go until Nov 3 election.
I really want to see Trump win the national popular vote. Didn’t 8 blue states vow to give their electoral votes to the national popular vote winner? That would be fun.
I have a feeling that Trump will win New Mexico. I’ve looked at the Events page of the Trump campaign website, and have noticed that there is quite a bit of GOTV activity going on there, door knocking, phone banking, meet-ups, stuff like that. Trump did visit NM a few months ago and got the endorsement of the president of the Navajo Nation. With increasing support from Hispanics, he might be able to flip NM. In 2016 Clinton won it by just 66,000 votes. Gary Johnson had 79,000 votes. With no big 3rd party on the ballot, I suspect most of Johnson voters will swing to Trump along with a lot of the Indian vote and a significant number of Hispanics.
Trump should have a rally in NM next week.
I also think it would be great to see a massive Trump rally at the Wilmington Delaware airport. It would be loud enough to rattle Biden’s basement.
That so called lead includes voters from CA, NY & Ill. Take those States out and what would the result look like?
He won’t win NY, CA or IL but he has been speaking about them and to them. I think it would be a real boss move to do a campaign in one of those states. The whole country matters! I know there isn’t much time but I think this kind of thing is a statement and may be worth it.
Would love him to make a quick stop there. Just the extra push could make up the difference. Not sure what the internals are telling the campaign though
This is great. This is a national number and 3% is roughly the threshold for electoral victory. If trump is within 3 % of nationwide popular vote, he’s likely to win the right battleground states to get the needed 270.
Keep an eye on NC and PA for shenanigans....
