A comeback for Donald Trump?

Sort of, though Hillary Clinton is still way ahead in electoral vote projections.

Two new nonpartisan analyses, though, give the Republican presidential nominee good news. CNN has moved Nevada and Florida from leaning Democratic to tossup, and the RealClearPolitics electoral map now has Hillary Clinton at 252 electoral votes, 18 shy of what’s needed to win. Monday, it projected her to have 272. CNN still has Clinton at 272.

Clinton remains comfortably ahead of Trump in the electoral college outlook. CNN gives Trump 179 solid electoral votes, with 87 up for grabs. RealClearPolitics gives Trump 126 solid electoral votes, with 160 rated tossups.

The changes are all the result of new polling.

RealClearPolitics’ number changed as it moved Pennsylvania, which has 20 electoral votes, from leaning to Clinton to the tossup category. New polling shows her lead shrinking slightly, though she’s still ahead by an average of 4.4 percentage points...

Nevada would be a good pickup - if he holds Ohio, North Carolina, and Florida, a couple like Maine, Nevada and New Hampshire are also within reach and should put him over the top....

I for one am making my opinions known on my Facebook page and I’m finding out who his other supporters are. Extend your network on social media and let’s get this done!

No comeback since he was never down. These commie lib pukes need to shut up and go away, forever.

Two men who do an excellent job explaining the polls and why there is every reason to be optimistic:

In the final week as pollsters have to roll back these silly D+8 samples, things should get really ugly for Hillary.

I have spoken to my snakes and they *deeply* resent these comparisons.

Still, they consider this an insult to all things serpentine, in general.

This is anecdotal, sure, but a guy on a very large Trump FB group just gave account of what he’s seeing on Long Island and in NYC.

Virtually no Killary signs, so many Trump signs, it’s crazy.

Several other NYC dwellers agreed.

the only reason the bitch is supposedly ahead is because the corrupt states are locked up by unions or similar....

in Washington state, we haven't had a pub gov for decades...

between the WEA and the Boeing workers, its hard to make inroads...the Boeing workers get big bonuses and the Boeing company gathers HUGE state tax advantages so you know they're paid off...

It has always been a Monster vote for Trump. Media has lied and cooked the polls to wrongly influence the election.
