I really like our chances in FL. Rapidly changing demographics will bring that state to HRC. nt aaaaaa5a Nov 2016 #16
Right. But that would still be a 9-point win for Clinton DemocraticSocialist8 Nov 2016 #19

IA is my "wish list" state. I'm curious to see how recent events could shape the result. Barack_America Nov 2016 #17

I think there is a slight possibility it will be even bluer but I think that is a minimum.

I believe we'll be seeing a couple more of those red states turn blue for the final count.

Thanks

Utah because I think Trump & McMullen will compete with each other & Hillary comes out ahead of both.

I'll call Utah a sleeper for now.

I have Trump winning the battleground states of IA and OH. I also think he could take a congressional district in ME. This electoral map really shows HRC electoral college strength. Trump wins OH and he is still nowhere near 270.

I'm curious whether the news out of IA today might just shift that state. You heard about the suspect in that horrible police shooting? Big lover of the confederate flag and Trump. IA was my toss-up I decided to be a bit hopeful on.

HRC has never done well in Iowa. She lost there in 2008 to Obama and Edwards. And she barely won against Sanders in 2016. The state sets up well for Trump demographically. His lead in IA has been consistent. I highly doubt it will be in our column on election night.

Trump 221
Clinton 317

Unless there is video of Trump at the Epstein lolita party. For the record, I believe such video exists, done by Epstein himself without the guest knowledge. For insurance purposes. Prince Andrew, Trump, probably many others.

HRC will have this state put away before election day.

It will comes down to the wire in Texas, but I can feel it.

I think Trump wins FL, OH, UT, AZ, NE, IA and GA

I have Clinton winning NV, NC and the Northeast. I think NC wins this election for Clinton.

I am surprised when people come out and say 5-6 point margin, in theory that is 75k-100k votes... not sure what is going on...

IA should be incredibly close, as HRC has events recently.
