Democratic pollster Patrick Caddell told Breitbart News: “Trump is closing everywhere and states that have not been in play are coming into play, like Minnesota.”
Caddell said those states that had been considered battleground states are not moving as fast, but all are inside the margin of error.
In the battleground states, the Clinton campaign has built the infrastructure and made the investments, so they have the ability to fight there what is becoming a national tide, he said.
“Part of that is because the Clinton campaign, well both campaigns, but particularly the Clinton campaign has spent so much of its money–pouring millions into those states to hold onto a point or two–probably the least efficient cost-benefit I have ever seen,” he said.
“Minnesota is a perfect example,” he added.
“Minnesota has been a close state in past elections, even though the Democrats always seem to win it, it was close in 2000 and 2004,” he said.
All polls were executed using automated phone calls and results were weighted to match a proprietary turnout model.

A Republican in any statewide race in Minnesota needs a minimum of 60% of the popular vote to overcome the voter fraud.
She probably win the ISIS & transgender vote as well.
If Trump wins Minnesota he wins NY and every other state..remember, Al Franken won Minnesota, Al Freakin Franken, if Trump can win that state he wins every state, even Vermont
Reagan probably did win MN in 1984. See my post #20.
Only after an endless recount where they kept finding more ballots, including the trunk of someone's car.
No, I'm not making that up.
He may lose a traditionally red state or two, but he looks like he may very well turn a few blue states red, so he’s ahead of the game.
Minneapolis is HARD CORE Bernie Land.
It is possible that a large portion of them will stay home.
Trump moving ahead means their collars are tightening.
What he said. I saw it myself.
Interpretation: The Dems have perfected voter fraud in the swing states, so those are locked up. They haven’t had enough time or bribed enough officials in traditionally safe Blue states, so those are where her clock is getting cleaned.
If the election were held today, Trump would likely beat Clinton

Minnesota? If Trump takes it, its a short night.
If Hillary can’t win Minnesota, where can she win?
When looking at polls that promise shiney but historically improbable opportunities at this late stage, the Trump campaign should ask themselves which polls and who is paying for them? What is their track record in the state or states in question? If I were with the Trump campaign I'd think hard before diverting a lot of resources to all but a handful of traditionally blue states. By now the campaign has their path to 270 in place and should not allow themselves to be distracted. Better to be blown out in MN and WI than to loose FL and NC by a whisker.
That was mainly because Minnesota was Mondale’s home state, not because Minnesota is much more liberal than states like CA or NY. But yeah, it’s hard to imagine Trump losing if he can pull off Minnesota.
“Because there is no EARTHLY reason a party would pick hillary as their nominee.”
Hubris.
I doubt Trump spends much if any time in Minnesota from here on out. I believe the state is too far gone to waste the time there. But it is a good sign for many of the battleground and light blue states that Trump is not being blown out in Minnesota (I would call Minnesota “medium” blue).
Maybe people are waking up and smelling the coffee about what is going on in Minnesota..its no longer like it was portrayed on Little House On The Prairie(Yeah I know it was just a TV show but still) its full of Muslims, especially in St. Paul, Somali Muslims mostly..maybe after the most recent terror attack in Minnesota people are waking up to what is happening over there
I was polled about a week ago but I was not able to determine exactly who the pollster was. Perhaps it was tis poll.
At any rate, I mentioned a week ago that the jihadi/Somali Muslim attack on the mall in St. Cloud might have an impact on the election. Rural MN has been trending GOP for about 20 years now, but has never been enough to overcome the Twin Cities’ liberal biases.
An attack on Minnesota citizens who are living in the non-metro area must have been a jolt to many Minnesota rural folks. The St Cloud Mall is a magnet for all of central Minnesota. A terrorist attack so close to home is bound to get attention from the voters.
I’m going to help Maine go for Trump....I’m in the second Congressional district.
