I'll give it 2-4 points. We'll be lucky if we're North of 60.

I admit that some of the things their model does makes me COMPLETELY confused.

My money is on down 1.1%

vdogg, even Sam Stein on his twitter for November 3rd said:

"Not sure i follow how a poll comes out showing clinton plus 1 in AZ and the 538 model lowers her chances of winning by .2%"

Let me just say, that I'm sure we'll all be relieved when Tuesday is over

according to the stats. Provided those folks didn't lie about how they voted, I think this poll represents very good news.

I would say based on these numbers and the recent TargetSmart data her chances are extremely good there.

17. Trump is trying to sway Florida via Miami-Dade County
Thu Nov 3, 2016, 01:56 PM
Nov 2016

His campaign views it as the most important county in the country. I saw an analyst say that on Chris Matthews' show last night during the, "Tell Me Something I Don't Know," segment.

I believe it. I live in Miami-Dade County. I mentioned last week that my Republican sister lived in my house until late June when fortunately she moved out. I could not have tolerated a political fall in the same house.

My house has been bombarded with rightwing mailers and phone calls throughout the fall. It is unbelievable volume. They leave anti-Hillary messages when I don't answer.

The mailers persist in lesser number. But Tuesday the calls declined then yesterday the phone calls stopped. Absolutely stopped. Nothing again today. It's fantastic but I wondered why. Then I spoke to my aunt. She had contacted my Republican sister, who told her that she early voted at the beginning of this week.

That explained it. It must have triggered something in their system. Trump's ground game may be weak nationwide but from a voter outreach aspect the GOP Florida operation is sophisticated and persistent, especially in Miami-Dade County. I don't doubt that they are trying to pull older Cubans who previously supported Republicans but either drifted away or may not be motivated to vote.

This most recent move from noon seems well correlated with the release of this Florida poll.

Dropped from 19.55 at 4:00am EDT too! This is huge. She is getting her mojo back after Comey's October Dud.

The smear campaigns always release things on Friday afternoon so the TV news have all weekend to talk about it.
