Has anyone noticed how the frequency of polls has gone down? The powers that be probably don’t like the answers.

Looks like a tough row to hoe

I believe that the basis for creating these maps rests in assumptions that simply do not apply to Trump. They’re culture war maps, but Trump cuts across the lines in a yuuuge way.

That is for sure. Trump already has over 3 million more votes than Romney and I believe has only underperformed him in two states so far, Texas and North Carolina.

As much as I’d love it if Trump won the white house, I’m afraid the Dem voter fraud, network of corrupt politicians and endless bribes and TV ads will prevent any Republican from becoming President. Unless the elite want it to happen, it won’t happen. A grim outlook, I know, buy probably nothing short of a complete reset would really solve anything long term.

I love how every pollster is automatically discounting any Latino vote for Trump. Even after exit polling showed they were voting for Trump already in the primaries. Even though even in California, every single proposition which has been put forward before the voters has won.

But hey, I’m good with this meme. It will mean the shock is all that much greater (AGAIN) when Trump wins.

Posting a poll from Dem operative Chucky Todd. .?
Chuckie’s Wife actually works for the DNC !

Trump won a huge lawsuit against these con artists this year !

Actually, given polls at this point that show Clinton up 10% nationally, it’s rather encouraging to see the electoral vote this close.

As the national poll numbers change, so will the electoral college.

There will be more states in play this election cycle than in recent elections.

The frequency of polls has gone up, not down.

The map makes it look more hopeful than I would have guessed. The projections I’ve seen say that Trump will have difficulty winning any of the toss up States.

The more GOP Elites back stab and screw with Trump, the more votes Trump will get.

We The People are big-time pissed. Everyone I talk is outraged and determined to see Trump elected.

Gosh, I thought all those mean, nasty pollsters were only trying to help someone defeat Trump.

These are the generals fighting the last war. They are basing everything on how it’s been. With Trump nothing is as it has been.

I don’t know why but Lisbon1940 is infatuated with my race. It keeps referencing my race to try and invoke people to attack me here on FR. It’s abuse and ignorance.

Nothing about you personally but it’s not a very big demographic.

The Electoral College has been an uphill battle for the GOP since at least 2000. It’s easy to forget how close a lunatic like Al Gore came to winning even then.

Very true.

The last 8 or 9 months has really opened my eyes about politics.

I had thought that I was a very well informed guy. I used to think all that stuff about the "Uni Party" was just conspiracy theory stuff.

I could never figured out why so many people wouldn't vote for a "Conservative."

Rush said it a few weeks ago:

The modern Republican party is not organized for or is interested in winning elections.

It is very rare that a candidate does not carry his birth state. NY is going to go to Trump.
