On Monday Presidential candidate Donald Trump campaigned Pueblo, Colorado and then again in Loveland, Colorado in the Budweiser Events Center. His event in Loveland set an attendance record for the Center with 8,000 present and another 10,000 were reported either turned away or the grounds during the event.
At the Prescott Valley Events Center in Prescott, Arizona on Tuesday, the Central Arizona Fire Marshal Rick Chase said he allowed 7,000 inside. Another 13,000 were reported outside by the Prescott Valley Police Sgt. Jason Kaufman.
Hillary Clinton on the other hand had four small rallies in Ohio and Pennsylvania on Monday and Tuesday. The participation at these events was a little over 1,000. To date, since the conventions ended on August 1st, through Wednesday, October 6th, Hillary has only had a little over 15,000 at all her rallies combined!
To put this in perspective, Trump had 8,000 more people turned away on Monday and Tuesday of this week alone (23,000) than Hillary has had at all her events combined (15,000) since August 1st.

I pray that this enthusiasm for Trump and lack thereof for Hillary is an indication of voter turnout next month.
Giant rallies do not gain suppoters. Advertisement does. Only committed supports come to rallies, not undecideds and not soft supporters of the opponent who might be swayed.
If enthusiasm of supporters is all that mattered, Ron Paul would be finishing up his second term. We need more commercials on the air. Now.
Vote fraud will more than make up for lack of enthusiasm on the part of Hillary voters.
How is it, that so many polls show a tight race, or Trump slightly ahead, and ahead in battleground states, and then you have this poll, which shows Clinton up 10 nationally????
It’s strange if these are all “scientific polls”, that they would fundamentally disagree with each other.
No way is Hillary up 10 nationally, if she’s behind in a number of battleground states.
[vote fraud] == [civil war]
You need to keep an eagle eye on the Democrats. Like all cockroaches and rats, they do not like for the light to shine on them. In Florida they have already started. Well, in reality, they have never stopped. But they have taken a different tact. Absentee ballots.
Yeah, it's "settled science." What a joke.
It's as funny as Curly getting his head crushed in a laminating press.
Campaign rally attendance is not a reliable indicator.
Dead democrat voters and virtual democrat voters don’t attend campaign rallies but are two of the democrats most reliable voting blocs.
I think the week or so before the election we will see a noticeable shift in the polling towards Trump, barring an “October surprise.” These polling organizations can’t afford to be off too much from the final results, so they will start to report more accurately as election day gets closer, so they can maintain credibility for future elections. And they’ll say “a significant shift at the last minute to Trump.”
“If enthusiasm of supporters is all that mattered, Ron Paul would be finishing up his second term. “
Yeah because these two things are totally the same.
I’m sure Jeb and Cruz also thought it was a goofy indicator too.
“Campaign rally attendance is not a reliable indicator.”
So tell us what the hell is?
Run ads and people swear they dont see any.
Have tens of thousands come to your rallies = That doesnt mean anything.
Few people show up to theirs = Democrats supposedly dont go to rallies
Be up in a poll = “Well that is just today. What about tomorrow!!!?”
Jesus, there is NO “tell”, OK? You dont have one any better than anyone else.
But I can bet if Trump couldn’t get anyone to show up, we would be hearing all types of grief.
Right! Why republicans cannot understand that just preaching to the quire will not add votes. Only reaching with ads will get to the uninformed. Trump for President.
Well I guess the other polls are wrong: DONALD TRUMP Up 2 in Rasmussen Poll, Up 4 in LA Times-USC Dornsife Poll.
This poll seems like an outlier and won’t bet the farm on it. Just look at the breakdown.
So tell us what the hell is?
Maybe the numbers of key precincts in swing states where there is voter turnout of 120% of the entire population (not just registered voters).
And every one of the votes is cast for the democrat.
In other words do what Hillary is doing?...Ron Paul Never had crowds like Trump!
I don’t agree. Here is my analysis(I mentioned this on another thread):
Trump rallies are always packed and over several thousand. People wait in line for hours to get in and there is always an overflow crowd. When I watch on Youtube (I’ve watched most of his rallies), his rallies are always viewed live with over 15,000 viewers. Some as high as 45,000. If you go back to view older rallies, you’ll see views from 50,000 to over 150,000.
Contrast to Clinton. Her rallies draw 1,000 or less. They are staged and packed with either paid people (like Pa townhall) or bused in. The live views on YouTube for any of her rallies peaked at about 1,800.
Pence got more live viewers than Clinton for his rallies.
So I wager that the polls are only sampling about 700 people most of which are eager to give a survey. It’s a whole new election when a number of people don’t have landlines and most people hang-up on any solicitation or survey. There are a lot of people that haven’t voted before or in the last few elections that will be voting now. How many times have you seen people going all out to hang Trump signs, decorate yards, etc. I see nothing like this movement for Hillary.
Finally, I look at a similar election, Bush vs. Kerry. All the polls had Kerry up but when you looked at Kerry’s rallies, there was no enthusiasm. Bush’s rallies were good, lively and you could see it in his eyes (like Trump) he cared about the people.
If Trump does ok in the next two debates and there is no major event against Trump (Oct. surprise), he will win.
We all hope your analysis is correct.
Yes, there was a story on FR last week about boxes of thousands of already prepared ballots filled in for killary found in an unused warehouse.
You know to be used where they are most “needed”. And thanks to all those who seem to think that voting as early as possible is a virtue but really just helps the left to know where and how many “filled in ballots” will be needed in a particular area.
