Sorry for the vanity!! New polls just posted to Real Clear Politics: Trump up 4 in Ohio. Trump up 3 in North Carolina. Clinton up 3 in Pennsylvania.!!
Ohio will make a win very possible.
Florida is in must win column for both Trump and Clinton. Neither can afford to lose it.
Destroy the Thug Party. Vote Trump!
I just read that PA is one of the states where Obamacare hikes are going up significantly--Trump should hit on this continuously, right up to Election Day!
What does that mean, "Giuliani's 3-4% swing factor?"
So far, I've actually seen one and I've heard about 5 or 6 or so ...
TRUMP signs everywhere !
(I'm in SW Pa)
The key in PA is turnout, both Democrat turnout (of course, in many cases fraud and multiple voting) in Philly and Trump turnout elsewhere.
That is why polls can be very wrong on PA.
Average polls show Clinton up in PA? By 6 points on some polls, I think.
Philly will do what they always do there, but seems to me the enthusiasm for Trump could overcome Filly Fraud. I hope I’m right about that. He needs Pennsylvania for sure.
Jerk! Now I have to delete a file from my phone that I thought was a response to please post the link. No manners!
I’m skeptical he can win it. Bush came close in 2004, but the GOP still hasn’t won it since 1988. And since 2000 it’s only gotten less white. Trump has strong rallies in northeastern PA, and he can probably flip Luzerne and Lackawanna counties to the GOP, but he’s weak in Philly and the burbs which has a much, much higher population count.
It’s the next state to go for only if FL, OH, NC, CO, NV, NH are shored up. I think we need to write off VA this year.
PA people are fibbing to the pollsters..............
Trump needs to win one of, NH, PA, CO, NM, WI or VA. Is he going to spend time in any of these states in the remaining two week?
Looks like Trump is close in PA. It will come down to Trump enthusiasm vs. Clinton voter fraud there.
Coal!!!
But Trump has much less cash than her going by the September reports and needs to be more concerned about spending his money judiciously on exactly the states he needs to win. It just makes more sense to fight on the battlefields he can win. Yes he can make Hillary drain money and time from other states as a side effect but it’s probably going to be a wash if that gives him less to spend there.
McCain and Palin tried hard for PA. I think Romney and Ryan spent some time here too. And the post-election analysis is always that the GOP would’ve been better off spending those resources in more winnable states.
This would be good news. Link?
I apologize.
Thank heaven for this! My blood pressure just went down 10 points.
One thing about PA is that early voting is a negligible factor. Not easy to do here. So if he’s going to do a push here, it can wait until closer to the end so he can spend time and money elsewhere in the meantime.
I have difficulty reading polls without feeling I’m succumbing to confirmation bias when choosing which to disregard.
