The Press and Pollsters Are Putting Too Much Cornstarch in the Cherry Pie (she's losing)

Contrary to most of the media-sponsored polls (The LA Times stands alone now calling the race a tie at last view), I agree with this one: Trump will draw in millions of voters who didn't show up to the polls before and he will beat Hillary Clinton.

I don't pretend to be a polling expert but note others who claim to be have said much the same thing using different statistical methodologies, including Yale Professor Ray Fair (economic models) and Emory University President Alan Abramowitz (presidential approval ratings), Politik.com predicts a landslide, noting in recent years the number of people voting for Democrats has dipped while the number of those voting for Republicans has risen.

Conservative Treehouse has argued along the same lines and notes that the NYT buried its own key finding that American voters are whiter than "historic leftist presentations".

I have voted almost every election by mail, because of the military.

When I was able to vote in person for a few years, I never saw any kind of line at the polling place.

The last time I registered to vote, I got an email from the county clerk telling me that I was ineligible to vote by mail. I had apparently checked the wrong block on the registration form. So when I emailed back to the clerk to correct the information, she wrote back “Thank you for your service!”

It is a big weakness in our system that we cannot easily verify people who do not physically show up. Maybe a fingerprint or something? I don’t know. Signatures are not secure because they can be faked.
