Electoral College Map Flips State to Donald Trump (Michigan)
Newsweek ^ | 10/10/2024 | Martha McHardy

Posted on 10/10/2024 8:04:22 AM PDT by simpson96

A key swing state has flipped in favor of Donald Trump, according to a new Electoral College map projection.

RealClearPolitics' polling tracker shows that, with no toss-up states, Michigan has flipped in favor of Trump, with the former president now half a point ahead of his opponent, Kamala Harris, in the state, on 48.5 percent to her 48 percent. It's the first time that the tracker has shown Trump ahead in the state, which Joe Biden flipped to blue in 2020, since July 29.

Trump's lead in Michigan means the pollster is now forecasting that the former president will win the election with 296 Electoral College votes to Harris' 242. Michigan has 15 electoral votes. Newsweek has contacted the Trump and Harris campaigns for comment via email.

Recent polls have put Trump ahead in the state, including a survey conducted by Quinnipiac University between October 3 and 7, which put him 4 points ahead in a head-to-head matchup and 3 points ahead with third party candidates included. The poll surveyed 1,007 likely voters and had a margin of error of +/- 3.1 percentage points.

Other recent polls, including one conducted by the Trafalgar Group and another conducted by AtlasIntel, have also put Trump ahead among likely voters in the state by up to 4 points.

I unfortunately this it’s going to be pretty tight overall. Libtards are worked up into a state of foaming at the mouth ready to vote. Hopefully the middle grounders and swing voters have some clarity of thought and make a reasoned rational decision rather that get swept up in the rainbow zombie mobs.

What’s this, no trolls here yet to bleat us there is no chance in Michigan because of fraud? (That’s their way of saying it’s hopeless and no reason for us to vote)

If this holds, maybe it will end her political career. She is despicable.

Quinnipiac is also saying that Trump has taken the lead in Wisconsin too. If true, the landslide is on.

If the “normal” states go blue and red, then Trump only needs 1 of either WI, MI, or PA. If he gets all three, it’ll be a rout.

“If this holds, maybe it will end her political career. She is despicable.”

President Trump should find her an ‘Ambassador’ job in some far corner of the world, then work like h#ll to get a Republican into the Governor’s Mansion in MI.

Lather. Rinse. Repeat...for all blue state governors! We’ll toss in Wisconsin’s for FREE! MAGA!

A week or so ago CNN had Harris at 79% with black voters. In the same time period, NBC, using a multi-poll average, had her at 80% with blacks. This is terrible for a Democrat, and she is behind where Biden was in 2020 with blacks.

I’m pretty sure that a lot of polls have avoided fully factoring in her poor performance with blacks, and Hispanics. It’s getting close to the election, and I’m guessing pollsters are being forced to start plugging in some her of negative numbers, which is why polls are swinging toward Trump.

If Harris has less black support than Biden in Philly, Detroit and Milwaukee, then she isn’t winning those swing states.

Stating fraud concerns can be a good thing.

Many liberals will make the extra effort. They will go out and vote because of all the media lies. Trump is racist. Trump is Hitler. Etc.

Our side needs a similar motivation. Don’t stay home because some poll your state shows Trump way ahead. Make the effort. Go out and vote because polls do not factor in the fraud.

Not disputing this, but ‘270 To Win’ has MI still marked as a ‘Toss Up’ state. Not sure when they do their updates.

Wisconsin is more than likely going BACK to President Trump after The Big Steal of 2020...which has been WELL established. We’ve made some changes to ensure more voter integrity, but Dane, Milwaukee and Brown Counties were the big cheaters in 2020.

I’m more hopeful than I’ve ever been these days. MAGA!

This is just disgusting and all the more reason to do away with the Constitution. The Electoral College is nothing but an infringement on democracy, and most of us have had our fill. Especially when Donald Trump threatens to take away our democracy altogether!

(this is sarcasm, I’m just giving the left side of my brain a chance to air some thoughts)
