Close the deal!

Ohio, Florida, Iowa, Nevada, Colorado for the win.

Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, and Michigan for the statement.

Anything else to embarrass her.

Some of these anomalies seem to point more to issues with the poll itself than to anything changing in PA.

I’d throw in Maine as a possible Trump win as well.

Maine can divide its electoral votes. Trump is getting 1 of 4, for sure. Two congressional districts, plus two electors for statewide winner. Trump has CD2 by a fat margin.

That kind of depressed turnout won’t be enough for Her.

I am very much expecting to see a Trump-ahead NJ poll come out soon.

Even if you double it, that still lags the 26-28% Obama won by in 2008 and 2012. Heck, even Kerry won NY by 18% over an incumbent president.

Interesting analysis. But not sure agree with the conclusion. Why wouldn’t the trends/forces that are in play around the country putting other normally blue states into play not also be relevant in PA?

For example granted every state is a little different from another but Ohio and PA mirror each other pretty closely the last few elections. PA is approxmately 2 to 3.5% more democrat than Ohio going back to 2000. If Trump is up average of +2% (and some consider that conservative) in Ohio that means Trump very well is too close to call or maybe a bit up in PA.

Also the Axiom Strategies battleground poll shows Trump up by 15% in a county won by Obama in 2012 by 5%. If that trend holds throughout the state that SHOULD (I emphasize should) overcome Philly proper and its’ fraud (if it’s small).

Yep, she’s running ads here. The main one is the Trump Hates Women meme featuring young girls checking out their looks in the mirror interspersed by Trump saying they are pigs and fat slobs.

Then it ends with “Is this the president we want for our daughters?”

I’m cankles and I approve this message.

How do FReepers explain this article -
(paraphrasing)
>>> As national Republican party get more conservative, the more liberal wealthier Pennsylvanians (income > 55k a year) switched from Republican to Democrats. <<<

??? Which conservative is the author talking about? What trend that national Republicans goes conservative? Bush? McCain? Romney?

WOW! Maybe all those recent terrorist attacks are sinking into to the low-information voters in New York.

If she is up only 7 in NY this race is over.

More than $55,000.00 a year is considered “wealthier”?

Huh?
