Who will turn what blue states red?

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?

Gee and I thought you had the answer. Anyway once the nominations are concluded there will be plenty of polls covering plenty of states.

“Who will turn what blue states red?”

EASY ANSWER. A candidate that GIVES A DAMN about the concerns of working class whites. Can’t think of one on our side...since he’s been attacked from the moment he tried to address those concerns.

All three can flip several as HRC is an extremely weak candidate. Trump is most likely to flip the northeast, at least in part. Cruz will do well in the midwest and southwest. Rubio can pick up in the midwest and maybe NM.

People tend to vote liberal when they believe we can run a deficit economy and conservative during hard times.

It may be the only thing that can turn blue states red.

Cruz and Rubio have little or no chance of turning any blue state to red.

Trump can turn a LOT of blue states red.

To the Cruz and Rubio supporters here and elsewhere - I admire your conviction, I really do. In a fantasy world, I would choose Ted Cruz as President. But he’ll never get 270+ EV’s in the real world. Never.

To them I say: 95% of a loaf is better than none.

Vote Trump.

Trump may turn red states blue. A majority of GOP and independent voters can’t stand the guy, and Democrats are going to vote for the Democrat with a D next to her name.
