    So Trump only needs to win in FL and NC? :)

    Check out current odds:
    http://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/...tion-forecast/


    Trump needs to overturn FL and NC and he is over the top.
    And both are essentially 50/50 states:
    FL 49/51
    NC 48/52

    Now on the other side, red states that Hilary could overturn, neither are 50/50 like those two, biggest chances for Hilary to take red is Ohio with 64% Trump.

    Lets keep this thread without trolling, only inspecting this map.

    There are a lot of assumptions in that map. That map gives him Ohio, South Carolina, Georgia, Arizona, Alaska, and Iowa all of which are considered toss-up states and have polls that are within 5 or fewer points. So, yes, if he wins all of those states then all he has to do is win Florida and North Carolina and he wins.

      Nate Silvers projections are worthless. PA is a tossup as well. Republicans had a high turnout in the primaries nearly equaling dems who have 900k more registered voters. In addition Hillary only received 22.5 of the vote whereas Trump received 28.1. Plus Ohio, PA, VA all are suffering under Obama's green thumb. I think all 3 of those states are going red. Might as well toss NC in there as well.

          Another state he has wrong is NH. There was a record turnout of republicans there in the primaries. And Trump received more votes than Hillary. New Hampshire Turnout Breaks Records, But Not On Democratic Side : NPR

          There's a trend here. Record Republican turnout and low Democrat turnout. This will continue on election day.

            This is my understanding as well.... He needs to get ALL of the states in play to have a path to 270... He needs Ohio, South Carolina, Georgia, Arizona, Alaska, and Iowa, Florida, and North Carolina....

            Looking at http://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/...tion-forecast/.... Seems to me "right now" Clinton has 296 electorial votes, and Trump only 240.



            Trump has to pick up some thirty electoral votes in the next six days - that's a tall order.

              The article you mentioned is from.... February 10th. This is for the primaries.

              Seems like NH is going to go with Clinton.

                Sure, he can win those states...but that's assuming he doesn't lose a Romney state.

                      Yes.

                      I read the entire article. Then I went back and looked at the date. Republicans are turning out in NH in larger numbers than expected (as of February), and yet currently losing the state.



                      And even so... NH only has... four electoral votes.

                          Most of what you mentioned are considered toss up by a broad sense of the word. As in they could/might swing, but come on - SC, GA etc, highly unlikely to swing blue.
                          As in opposition - FL and NC are pretty likely to swing red in comparison.

                          Of course I agree that those are not locked in.

                              It must suck to live in Florida, North Carolina or Ohio right now, getting constant robo calls or commercials "Vote for Hillary/ Vote for Trump" every minute of every day.

                              Those people must be going insane.

                                Based on the campaign fundings I'd say most of the calls are going for big money sponsored democrat candidate.

                                  I think he will take Florida but will have trouble getting PA.

                                        I'm well aware of how many votes there are. That's not the point. Nate Silver is completely bias and incorrect. He's been caught changing poll numbers to reflect his projections.

                                        You're once again trying to debunk a source who is referring to the actual source. That being the New Hampshire Journal Poll: Ayotte Leads in Final Stretch, as Hassan Faces Headwinds from Clinton Support | New Hampshire Journal

                                          Actually you are even more clueless because you were claiming Trump had no chance, after primaries you were stating something like Clinton has +8 or whatever points, it is done deal etc etc. Smarter people were trying to explain to you that it means nothing at that stage and gave you reasoning. And as you can see you were proven WRONG. Trump as avery real chance her.
                                          So you being an American makes it even more funny because you were ignorant ant clueless and stupid predicting it all wrong. Foreigners being "clueless" is at least understandable, American being clueless and ignorant and proud about that - laughable.

                                          Be a man and admit it. You said Trump had no chance, you were wrong. As simple as that.

                                          Unless you are trying to imply that you are smarter than http://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/...tion-forecast/ guys, who are doing this prediction thing professionally and who has Trump at very real 34.2% chances.

                                          So go ahead and choose:
                                          a) be a man and admit you were ridiculously wrong, clueless, not smart (pick whatever suits you)
                                          b) state that you are still correct and you are smarter than http://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/...tion-forecast/ guys who are professionals at this thing (would be laughable and no one would take you seriously)
                                          c) post another ad hominem, misdirection, avoiding question, off topic etc. Usually you are best at variant c.
                                          d) Ignore the question. Everybody understands what is what even without you answering anyway

                                                          Indiana is no shock. With the exception of Obama in 2008 (where he won by only 1 point) it has gone Republican 5 out of the last 6 elections. I think Ohio is a true toss up. Only a few points separate them and it has gone both Democrat and Republican in recent elections. Missouri is a pretty dark red state having not been won by a Democrat since Clinton in 1996. I don't know about New Hampshire. The polls I see show Clinton up by about 7 points and it has gone Democrat in 5 of the last 6 elections. Even if Trump wins it, 4 EVs isn't a whole lot.

                                                          He can lose either Pennsylvania or Florida, but he can't lose them both. Of course, if he wins them both that will make this a race. I think we will know pretty early on election night how things are going to play out based on what happens in those two states.

                                                              It could be. Personally, I think Hillary will end up with around 300 EVs leaving Trump with somewhere in the 230s depending on how some of the smaller states play out.

                                                              If Hillary wins Pennsylvania and Florida early in the evening, it is over. If that happens Trump basically would have to win every other swing state and take away a few blue states to win which I don't think is going to happen.

                                                              What I think we may see are a handful of states (potentially Pennsylvania and Florida included) that end up being very close. It could be close enough in some states that the loser ends up challenging the results.

                                                                  There's a trend here. Record Republican turnout and low Democrat turnout. This will continue on election day.

According to Pew Research, there has been record Republican turnout, but Democrat turnout was almost identical to the Republican turnout. Other than 2008 when it was Obama and a lot of excitement, this year's Democrat primary turnout was the highest since 1988.

                                                                  The bigger question is if Bernie's supporters will turn out for Hillary. If they do Trump is done. If not, he has a chance.

There is a black president of the USA. So the next one must be a woman. Actually I can predict who will be elected after her. It will be a transgender. So Nicky for president?

                                                                      As many have argued here there are more democrat registered voters. I've also argued the point that you just made that democrats are turning out at equal to or less than Republicans. So if there are more registered democrats and they are turning out at equal to or less than Repubs there's a low turnout of Dems. North Carolina Primaries is a great example. Republicans had 800k more voters in the primaries.

                                                                      I'm calling Trump wins Florida. This race could be so close of electoral count Maine or New Hampshire could be the actual deciders.

                                                                        So there is no need for you to tell us "how hard" it will be, we know it is as hard as 36/100 chance.

You and other less clever peers of yours where claiming otherwise, which is the only thing that is being made fun at in this thread.

                                                                        Ps: you are one good moron if you think we can not see the same info from fivethirtyeigh's map that we can see from your map.
