Confirming what I’ve been saying for quite a while- “It’s going to be a Trump landslide.”

I hope you're right, but we can't take anything for granted. We have to fight for every vote right up until the polls close on election day. If Trump just squeaks out a victory, it will be the year 2000 all over again, with the Clinton campaign demanding recounts in key battleground states that they think they can steal. We must do everything we can to completely crush Hillary in November so there's no doubt that Trump is victorious.

They don’t have to come out. When you can get 120% of eligible, not registered, voters, things tend to go your way.

There is the school of thought that some women don’t like powerful women in comparison to men. It was a comment that was often made when Sarah Palin was running. Thus it is an obstacle for female politicians to overcome. Obviously some do but that may be what is in play with your female federal employees.

This will come down to a handful of counties. Just like 2008 and 2012. They will be bussing in illegals who will vote in every district. No voter ID. All they have to do is win a State by 1 vote and the Electorial votes go to the winner.

I am close to Pa. and know it is a Dem stronghold. Nevertheless, people are pissed. The situation of Clinton/Obama bashing Law Enforcment is swinging many Dems and lots of Indies. Pa. is a big LE state and military background state. Florida will go to Trump unless 120% of registered voters show up. Just like 2012 and no one fixed the issue. Ohio is one of the places where they will be bussing in huge amounts of illegals to vote.

It takes a certain number of cheaters to put in the effort to get the numbers needed. That's why you occasionally get a Republican governor in states like Pennsylvania or Illinois.

Philly politics is some of the most corrupt in the nation.

So that other Florida poll was not BS, backed up by Quinipiac.

Correct. If she is not winning PA and FL (and to a lesser extent IA), then she is in trouble.

Amazing how the “journalist” scribbling for Pollutico took good news for Trump and tried to mitigate it in the body of the story.

Almost like Pollutico is reluctant to say the truth that Hitlery is a disaster, just like her boss Barry.

It appears that you are repeating the allegation that you made in a previous post in a different thread to the same general effect. I asked you then for some proof that I actually made statements that you attribute to me but all I got was crickets.

You make the allegations, it is up to you to substantiate them it is not incumbent on me to deny or explain that with which I am not confronted.

If Trump wins Pennsylvania, Florida and Ohio, Clinton can win the other swing states (Virginia, Colorado, Iowa, New Mexico, Nevada, Wisconsin, Maine) and Trump will still win.

Pennsylvania is NOT a swing state. It is a Democrat state.
If Trump is winning there he might actually win the election.

I got an automated polling call last week.

I indicated that I was a young black female for Trump.

I worry about such things as well. With the 120% turnout and all.

However, unlike Romney, the monstrous traitorous pussy, I think Trump will say something about such things and demand action.

Trump might have another advantage in NY/NJ/PA. He is a big time builder who likes urban areas. He may have some well-placed friends there who can help keep an eye and ear on things. After is too late.

Excellent point; Pennsylvania was not a swing state and Virginia used to be a Republican state. I find it difficult to imagine Clinton losing Pennsylvania and winning Virginia. The key going forward is Republican unity for Trump and a near record turnout.
