WaPo: Donald Trump's chances of winning are approaching zero (LOL alert)
Washington Post ^ | October 24, 2016 | Chris Cillizza and Aaron Blake

The election is in 15 days. And the electoral map just keeps looking grimmer and grimmer for Donald Trump.

We are making three changes to The Fix map this week, all favoring Hillary Clinton.

First, we are moving Nevada, where Trump had shown surprising strength for much of this year, from "toss up" to "lean Democratic" amid signs that the state is slipping away from him. ... Trump's collapse in the state is badly impacting Republicans's chances of winning Sen. Harry Reid's (D) open seat. ...

We're also moving Utah - yes, Utah! - from "lean Republican" to "toss up" as independent candidate Evan McMullin, a Utah native and Mormon, continues to show considerable polling resiliency in the Beehive State. Count us as skeptical that Clinton can win in such a Republican state. But McMullin is taking lots of Republican voters away from Trump, and it's not out of the question the third party candidate wins the state's six electoral votes.

And, finally - and much to our amazement - we are adding Texas to our list of competitive states, rating it as "lean Republican."

Boston Globe(owned and run by the New York Times), just days before the US Senate elections in Massachusetts:

The Boston Globe
Senate poll: Coakley up 15 points
AG viewed as stronger on most issues, Globe survey finds, but Brown has gained traction, too

By Matt Viser and Frank Phillips
Globe Staff / January 10, 2010

Democrat Martha Coakley, buoyed by her durable statewide popularity, enjoys a solid, 15-percentage-point lead over Republican rival Scott Brown as the race for US Senate enters the homestretch, according to a new Boston Globe poll of likely voters. (Full article: 1142 words)

http://archive.boston.com/news/local/massachusetts/articles/2010/01/10/senate_poll_coakley_up_15_points/

Scott Brown ended up beating Martha Coakley.

Three cheers for posting discouraging information to Trump supporters.

Everyone remember when our arrogant, cocky POTUS informed the Establishment that *he* was all that stood between them and the pitchforks?

I bet (hope) they wake up in a sweat imagining that scenario with Trump.

I cannot drive home in time from work because one of Hillary’s rallies has overfulled a local stadium, the toilets overflowed into the streets, the traffic lights quit working and then my cat laid a harball in my recliner when i finally got home!

These polls are a setup for voter fraud. Most “Americans” will sleep right through their freedom being snatched out from under them and half the rest won’t care.

Ronald Reagan was down by double digits right before his landslide election. Trump will repeat history.

Honestly, what is wrong with people in this country?! They chose Obama twice and apparently see no problem with the corrupt, lying, felonious Alinskyite lady. Trump ain’t perfect, just as Romney and McCain weren’t perfect, but what the heck, people? Wake up and smell the coffee!

Didn’t wikileaks say something about surpressing the Trump vote with fake polls and demoralizing propaganda?

The overcooked polls and the machine vote switching are all part of the same effort to steal this election. The people support Trump. This is why the big effort is under way to force people to say in advance that they will honor the results because the media all knows what is going on.

Situations a bit more dynamic, this is do or die, and too many are dying in Obama and Hillary’s wake. I’m very restrained to say what will happen if Hillary wins, but i can say this, resolve goes very very deep, and America is very resolved.

The vote has been stolen since the Chicago cabal got in office. Did you notice how Obama “ran the table” on swing states in 2012? Vote switching is occuring at the precinct level along with the usual ballot stuffing and dead voting. Unless Trump wins by 20 points they will steal this.

If vote-switching is happening enough to flip half a dozen or more swing states, all political talk on FR is just time-wasting. No one in a position of authority is doing anything to stop or even prove such vote-switching. It’s over.

Nobody gets fired if they are monumentally wrong. Nobody loses money and none of their peers disrespect them.

So.... yeah like... dudes... we’re totally in the tank for Hillary and most of us have contributed to her campaign, but you can totally trust us on this. Trump’s doomed. I mean, we did a careful poll of everyone in the newsroom and nobody here is gonna vote for him.

If there is a live human being anywhere who believes this poll I want to know who they are.

I have a bridge in Brooklyn that is currently for sale—cheap!

The WaPost should really try to keep up with events better. Wikileaks released the Clinton material proving that they were working on overstating their poll numbers—LAST WEEK!

So sad.

You maybe didn’t see the New York Post John Podhoretz op-ed column about how Trump is defeated, complete with a photo from behind where his head is bowed, supposedly in defeat. Shameless distortion.
