It's pretty much down to Cruz, Rubio and Trump. We keep seeing the polls vs. Hillary. If one gets the nomination, what blue states does a candidate have a chance of turning red in order to get to 270?
Ohio, PA & FL would be good targets.
I think any of the Republican candidates could do it. We need to stop trying to destroy each other!
Nope, its down to one.....
Trump
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
No one is talking about this! This says we have 261 EV's with us or leaning our way. Just 9 more EV's and we are in.
Trump could easily win NJ (15), or WI (10), or IA/NV (12).
I did not realize we were in this good shape.
If I was confident that Trump would do what he says, I would agree. However, I am fairly certain that Cruz would keep his word and unsure of Trump. Even though Trump is more electable, that uncertainty worries me.
“Trump may turn red states blue. A majority of GOP and independent voters canât stand the guy, and Democrats are going to vote for the Democrat with a D next to her name.”
Yep, Reagan had the SAME PROBLEM. Way too BRASH for the ‘more-civilized’ people, not to mention he all but promised to start World War 3.
Your side has to have some thing better than that argument against Trump, or do you...
Trump should be able to turn a couple of the industrial Midwest states blue plus Florida. He’s even talked about New York but dunno about that.
I predict that Trump will take California
I hear alot about Trump turning blue sates red, but I dont see it. Not with 65% unfavorable rating.
Trump will win 45+ states in the general.
A YUUGGGGGE landslide.
Referring to the previously posted maps, The Donald will win everything east of the Mississippi(yes that’s right, NY goes RED)/ the entire midwest, Texas and a good chance at taking California.
NY, FL, TX and Cali ...
It will be the biggest electoral imbalance since Reagan II.
Pubbies will vote R, Conservatives will vote R, lots of D’s will flip because they HATE Her Thighness, Big Labor rank & Fie (Teamsters) will go Trump.
The Donald will get Gay, Trans, Hispanic, India & Asian immigrant, Black, young, old, educated, dumb, rich, poor . . .
This because he is NOT an ideological Conservative, NOT against abortion in all cases and people feel they KNOW him.
For many,when running against the Devil HerSelf, good enough is good enough.
To hell with media newspeak colors. Red is Communist.
