Trump Leads in Florida Poll and Republicans lead in Florida Early Vote Count
CNN, Bloomberg, SOS Florida results | October 26, 2016 | Beauti ful Graciosos Skies

Donald Trump is right! He is leading and favored by more voters in Florida than Hillary Clinton.

While pollsters have sought to over sample democrat voters and other targeted groups to convince voters that Clinton is leading, Trump is emerging ahead of Clinton in the state of Florida (and Ohio.)

At the culmination of the first day of early voting which included returned absentee ballots, Donald Trump led Florida with just over 7,000 votes.

In the latest Bloomberg Politics poll, Trump is ahead of Clinton, 45% to 43% -- well within the poll's 3.2 percentage point margin of error.

Pollsters state that Trump's Florida independents are swaying towards him whereby he gets 44% of the vote compared to Clinton's 37%. This is an important set of the electorate that is motivated Trump's stand on establishment politics.

If Hillary Clinton was truly confident in Florida, why would she be campaigning here at four venues in three days? In addition to her appearances - Bill Clinton, Jennifer Lopez, Barack Obama, Bon Jovi, Tim Kaine, Jay Z, and Al Gore are all campaigning for Hillary in Florida. These celebrities are indicative of an unpopular nominee who needs star power to draw a crowd of over 400 people. In addition, Hillary is lacking the stamina to campaign vigorously on her own accord for any length of time.

Discounting celebrity -movie star - rock band appearances, HIllary Clinton can not fill a high school gymnasium for her own campaign rallies. Many of her attendees at college venues are actually below the age to vote and have been found to be bussed in from local high schools conducting "field trips."

Donald Trump has had greater attendance at his Florida rallies than have appeared throughout the entire country for the Clintons combined. The 20,000 plus attendees at his Tampa rally exceed the combined attendance of all of Clinton's personal rallies for the past month.

Hillary lacks unpaid support, enthusiasm and accountability in Florida. The Clintons have plenty of constituents in Florida that parasitically feed off of her government policies. She may also be counting on the potentially 180,000 undocumented voters that had appeared on the Florida voter rolls in 2012. Surely the Clinton party has enabled these aliens to register and they will welcome their felonious support.

Polls showing Clinton well ahead may bite them in the ass because people who are not to eager to vote for Hillary may stay home.

Hillary got 300 for her birthday bash in Tampa after Trump got 25,000 two days ago.

Careful - this is all just speculation. We have no idea how many voted from Trump. All we know is how many R & D ballots have been requested and received. We don’t know how many are crossing over for Hillary, and the other way around. Fingers and toes crossed!

Someone should tell this guy that when writing a puff piece for Trump, emphasizing "well within the margin of error" is not a positive when the candidate you want to be ahead is ahead in the poll.

Just one more reason not to read these blog posts that openly shill one way or the other if you’re interested in unbiased facts.

remember the D will drop some scandal at the start of November. SOMETHING even a lie to break momentum.

I hope Trump hits first.

No, they will be back with new polls showing Hillary ahead again.

Ignore all polls.

This blogging post is not shilling. As we know, there are no actual results until election day. The rest is all speculation - theirs, yours or mine. Any positive polls, articles or summaries thereof should be announced and posted for Trump. It is one way small way of combatting their false and biased headlines. The headlines surface in search engines, ya know.

The Florida facts are this:

1. Trump has exponentially greater rally support than she does.

2. Trump has an internal poll and a few media polls in his favor, regardless of the negative drumbeat of the msm.

3. Florida’s total of republican votes cast and returned absentee ballots exceed democrats by - 7,000 votes. It would not be a stretch to presume most are for TRump.

Why do you want to let them spin those facts as “Hillary’s leading” and “She will win Florida?” If he is leading in ballot count, why not say it? Trump is currently ahead (by R ballots) by the exact same 1% that BHO won Florida in 2012.

I notice the latest Rasmussen has Stein reduced to 1% nationwide. That would explain Hillary now being 1 ahead on Trump. Sort of good news bad news. I was hoping voters for Stein would not panic and go for Hillary but they have. The good news there is only 1% left for Jill, so I don’t see Hillary picking up any more of that support.
