What are the odds of Hillary Clinton winning South Carolina in November? Getting better, according to one numbers-cruncher.
Nate Silver of the FiveThirtyEight website currently lists Donald Trump as a heavy favorite in South Carolina, saying the Republican has a 58.8 percent chance of winning the state. But that number has dropped precipitously in the past week.
On July 30, Trump had a 84.9 percent likelihood of winning South Carolina in FiveThirtyEight’s projections. Since then, however, the odds have dropped steadily, a loss of more than 25 points over a nine-day period.
At the same time, FiveThirtyEight projects a tightening race in terms of vote totals, saying Trump has the support of 46.5 percent of S.C. voters to Clinton’s 44.8 percent, a difference of less than two percentage points.

He’s gonna lose TEXAS and Tennessee and Alabama and !!!! everywhere.
Get the #### out of here.
It’s the propaganda machine of ‘if you repeat a lie over and over it will become the truth’.
(((YAWN))))
Poor Nate Silver! It is one thing to have others mock you, but to be self-mocking is something else altogether.
The pollsters appear to be having a shark jumping competition.
You would think Hillary would be down in SC then.
But she isnt.
They are nuts. SC will go for Trump easily.
yeah WOW.
Plus this thing aint over even if she wins.
They just dont know that yet.
Neither did the French king..
There is NO CHANCE South Carolina will vote for Hillary, and I’m willing bet bet everything I own on that. Rock Hill SC is basically a suburb of Charlotte NC which is all you need to know regarding the media/newspapers/polls.
The media, RATs, and GOP Elites has resurrected or dug up Joseph Goebbel’s and Tokyo Rose to help with their campaign against Trump and We The People.
The Strange and Mysterious History of the Ouija Board
Tool of the devil, harmless family game—or fascinating glimpse into the non-conscious mind?
Those of our community who believe that polls are the gospel truth of reality should take this vignette as a note of caution in letting polls dishearten you.
The media is trying to convince us that Clinton will win Georgia too. Very, very unlikely.
Hillary is carpet bombing the charlotte/Rock hill market with anti trump ads that make him out to be an unstable clown who hates crippled people. Never underestimate propaganda, it has an effect. It may not be enough for her to win but many people are swayed like lemmings by this crap.
Democrats have an unlimited army of psychologists and think tanks that work 24x7 figuring out the right buttons to push. Trump is very good, but he doesn’t have the arsenal she has.
What I don’t get is who the people are that base their vote, or even if they will vote, on what one stranger tells another over the phone about their political opinion. Who are these people?
Freegards
Silly season is upon us.
Article today that if these polls are done of likely voters, it’s a +2 Cankles advantage-—and that’s WITH the very heavy Dem oversamples.
Trump is in good shape, and getting better.
There’s no way Trump loses SC. Period.
Clinton is not going to win South Carolina. She is not going to win Utah. She is not going to win Texas. It’s all foolish speculation.
