Surprise! Trump demolished Hillary with Millennials in Pennsylvania
HotAir.com ^ | 04/28/2016 | LARRY O'CONNOR

In most of the primary and caucus results over the past several months, the votes reflected these poll results. Even when Trump did very well with Baby Boomers and Gen X-ers, he’s usually tanked with Millennials. Game, set and match, right? Turn out the lights. Trump is doomed. Get ready for four years of this. Maybe. Or, maybe, just maybe, we shouldn’t do what every political pundit and “expert” has done since they wrote-off his candidacy the day Trump announced.

Something happened in Maryland and Pennsylvania. let’s just focus on Pennsylvania because the Keystone State could actually be a decisive battleground in the general election and even if Trump did well in Maryland (which he did) it probably won’t make a difference. Clinton’s basically a lock in the Old Line State.

157,000 Millennials in Pennsylvania voted in the Republican primary this past Tuesday. This compares to 198,000 who cast ballots as Democrats.

Trump ended up winning 52% of the Millennial vote which amounts to roughly 81,640 votes. Meanwhile, Clinton got a paltry 17% of Millennials which works out to 33,660 votes.

It’s only one state (although, a pretty important state) but it represents the best showing Trump has had in the 18-29 year-old demographic since the primaries began. That coupled with his narrow victory with the same age group over Cruz in Maryland is definitely an encouraging sign for Team Trump.

PA is in play... hell, all the Rust Belt states are.

If Trump can lock them up, he is set to go to the White House.

This means Bernie got about 60K more votes than Trump or thereabouts. The title is still accurate, they just don’t mention Bernie. Bernie get North Korean type support from the millennials. Unreal.

Oh please. Primaries mean nothing for the General election. Nothing. Zero. Nada.

But hey, every good graveyard needs a little whistling. Let’s ignore the USA/Suffolk poll yesterday that has Clinton 11$ ahead of Trump.

Watching this disaster unfold is miserable.

I guess Sanders played a good role, after all; his cult of Millenials is so loyal to him that some of their members will be voting Trump in order to spite Hitlery. So long as they keep their noxious liberal traps shut and don’t try to kill any conservatives, I suppose we can accept their votes.

We don't seem to hear much from Hillary these days. I wonder where she's keeping herself?

Keeping a low profile is an odd way to run a campaign for your party's nomination, although Hillary does have a tendency to drive her numbers down whenever she opens her mouth.

Hillary! Hillary! Come out Hillary!

I go to YouTube and type in "Hillary." Here's what I get on the first page:

Here is a scary thought: About 40% of democratic millennials support socialism. The other 60% just don’t know what socialism is.

I don’t want to get too cocky but this is really going to be a landslide. All Trump has to to is get her neagatives up a few percent and his down..game over

She is a horrible awful woman and everybody knows it..even her voters

It will be up to Trump to raise her profile. His ads should be 2 minute long excerpts of her fingernails on chalkboard ex wife voice droning on about anything. Don't contradict her points, just fill the ad with her voice.

That's why her barking-moonbat supporters want her.

They hope to inflict her on America. They believe she'll make everyone else as miserable as they are.

Exactly. Very good!

If Trump does that, will Hillary complain about "negative campaigning?"

The millennials will vote for Hope and Change again, and maybe Trump will reach some of the Bernie crowd giving them the hope of getting a good job.

Hillary has to get Bernie to take the VP or she’s gonna lose a lot of millennials to Trump.
