Not a switch, but I had a coworker that was going to leave the presidential ballot blank when she voted because she thought that neither candidate was fit for the office. She mentioned this afternoon that she stopped by the courthouse and early voted this morning and ended up voting for Trump because after the FBI announcement she just couldn’t stand the idea of four years of never ending investigations.
I suspect that Obama, Clintons & the Democrats have refined
VOTER FRAUD to such a fine science that they WERE cocksure
that Hillary had it in the bag. - Maybe the ground game is
so skewed now that she is beatable. I hope so. - However,
I’m voting TRUMP/PENCE and not letting up.

A libertarian friend in Cali came to the conclusion that voting for Trump would be the right thing to do in a state where he had a chance.
This from a virtual NeverTrump.

All I can say is I am seeing a ton more Trump signs than McCain or Romney ever had in southeastern PA.
I voted early at the Fulton(Atlanta Ga) main county office on the south end of downtown. In previously voting here, all other voters have been Black as South end is mostly Black.
This time voting was heavier than 2014 (well 2016 is a presidential year and should be heavier). But this time the early voters were white. I was the only one dressed like an office worker. All others were dressed like construction workers or warehouse workers. Hmm...wonder who they voted for.

I live in a mostly Black area. Leaving my house Friday morning I struck up a conversation with a Black guy in his 50s about guns. He described how he carries a gun even though his wife doesn’t want guns around. He was obviously military for 3 or 4 years but mostly private sector jobs.
He volunteered that “of course” he voted for Trump this time.

During the primary there were frequent Bernie signs. I don’t see any of them with Clinton signs.
But this past weekend over 100 Clinton-Kaine signs went up around Emory University-Hospital complex. Clearly a small dedicated team (probably paid) put the signs up in the yards of people from a list they had. The people at these houses are no doubt mostly ideological Big-Gov types. Even if they don’t want a sign in their yard, they don’t have the spine to say so.
I love turning pollsters:
pollster: hi, can we count on your support for (local democrat running for representative in the HR)
me: is he for or against the second amendment?
pollster: he is definitely for the second amendment, although he wants to close the gun show loophole (etc)
me: who does he support for president?
pollster: he supports hillary clinton for president
me: well, hillary clinton is widely regarded as a gun grabber. what typically happens to a nation’s citizens when a government confiscates guns? have you ever been in a war? would you like to live in a country in which the government does not trust you to defend yourself? (etc)
i keep going until i get the pollster to agree to support trump or until he hangs up on me.
