 Trump might win huge!! |
Resident Skeptic |
The popular vote, that is.
I think we will see many NeverTrumpers come home in the final days. They, along with disaffected, unemployed whites might push Trump to a considerable popular vote victory of 4 to 5 points.
Even so, I see little hope Trump can win the Electoral college vote.
Virginia-She used to be a dependable red State. She voted for LBJ in 1964 and that was the last Democrat Presidential candidate she supported until 2008. She again went Democrat in 2012 and I do not see how a Republican will ever win there again. As the Federal government has grown, so has the number of Federal employees migrating to the Virginia suburbs of D.C. This class of voter loves Federal power and sees themselves as the elite of the nation. Their votes now cancel out those of true Virginians.
North Carolina- A mass influx of liberal Yankees has turned this once conservative state into a blue state.
Florida- Same as North Carolina.
Pennsylvania- A hub for the once reliable Democrat, blue collar working class white voters. But the Dems have made it clear they are no longer interested in this class of voter. Trump is attracting them now. If the NeverTrump Republicans in Pennsylvania come home, Pennsylvania might be in play. But I doubt it.
Ohio- Same as Pennsylvania.
Again, Trump could win the popular vote by a landslide and still lose this thing. Trump might garner millions of extra unneeded votes in States where he will win huge anyway. But I don't see that happening in the States listed above.

| The majority of the GOP voters did not vote for Trump and the ones that did must have wanted Hillary to be the president. |

The first part might be true, but you are VERY wrong about the last part. Sorry your man could not muster the votes, You are very upset, yeah I know it was rigged, etc. My man didn't either, but I sure do not want Hillary in. So I will do what I can to keep Hillary out. I personally hope Trump can pull it off.
If he doesn't I can't blame you because GA will probably go for Trump, and according to you, they are a bunch of dummies if they do.  There are a lot of us who are not as smart as you, but we try.

Trump has retaken the lead in the L.A. Times poll. Back in July he lead by 7 in this very poll, but yet did not have a good showing in the battleground state polls, thus proving my theory to be correct.

If they put him in a closet and close the door until November he has a chance of winning. Then keep him there until the check for the wall from Mexico comes in. If this happens we will all be fine and dandy.  |

The majority of the people in GA are Dawg fans. Enough said. 😂
Please copy and paste where I have said anything about the election being rigged. I don't understand that from you. I have always said that Trump never got the majority of the vote. Most people voted against him but the system is the system and we live with it. I have also said that the people that voted for Trump ignored the polls that said he couldn't beat Hillary so they will have the live with the consequences of their vote. |

Anyway, back to the point of this thread. Here is an example of what is happening in North Carolina.
| Quote: | Voters are flowing into the state at a firehose rate — young, educated and many to take high-paying jobs when they arrive. They're coming from everywhere and quickly diluting North Carolina's conservative political underpinnings.
"Clinton is winning," said North Carolina Republican pollster Michael Luethy. "Particularly because folks who have moved to the state in the last five years are very different voters. They're persuaded by a different issue set than those have been here a while."

At this point I can't imagine any other GOP candidate doing any better against Hillary than Trump is now. By now they'd all be withering under attacks from the media/Clinton machine and completely wimping out. Trump falters but he bounces back time and again because he is not afraid to strike back. But either way, I don't see how can win the Electoral College even with a 10 point popular vote landslide.

Rigged wasn't a good word, maybe skewed(?), but somehow I think you know what I meant, it was skewed because of Trumps personal attacks and Trumpism, wild gullible people, etc.as is used widely to cover a multitude of sins. I honestly did not mean 'rigged' as crooked, but because of a groundswell of Trump supporters our guys lost, there was no way they could win with the smoke and mirrors of immigration and THE WALL.
Face it, he got the most votes, they were registered republican votes in most states I think. (but of course I do not know) I know in at least two of the states in which I have voted you had to be registered as a REP to vote in the primary.

Nope, Cojak, here in NC, you may registered "UNAFFILIATED." Then you vote in whichever primary you choose to vote in. That is the way darling son does it, and the way I should have already done it. |

It is not even Labor Day yet.
The news wants you to think everything matters now - but both candidates support is soft - and can easily be swayed. Hillary could lose a bunch, Trump could get 10% before its over and finish way behind Johnson - or vice versa.
Lots of surprises to come in September.

Ok, Like Jim Bakker, 'I WAS WRONG'. i have voted in:GA, VA, NC, MO, FL and MS that I can remember, and NC is the one Democrats cannot vote in the primaries, if my check on the net it right.
I hate being wrong! (but one gets used to it in 77 years)

In fairness to you, Cojak, this is a relatively recent change. (Well, at my age I call it recent; darling son would not call it recent, lol.) So, it's not so much that you're wrong, you're just not up-to-date. 
However, now that you've read it on the internet, you know it's true, so now you're up-to-date AND right.  |

Don't paint North Carolina blue yet. It's true that Obama won narrowly in '08 but Romney won here in '12.

That's how I do it. I am registered as unaffiliated because I always have to vote in the democratic primary because my preferred choice for sheriff is always on the democratic side of the ledger. Then I vote republican in the general election. I wish that sheriff's elections would be non-partisan.
I'm not sure how recently that has changed. I've been doing it that way for 16 years.

Back to the original point of this thread.....
Here is part of an article explaining why Hillary polls so well in Georgia and South Carolina....
| Quote: | Whether or not Republicans hold on to Georgia and South Carolina this year, the lessons they are likely to take away are predictable. Democrats will assume that these states, like Virginia and North Carolina, are part of a long-term liberal trend and push traditional liberal ideas harder in future elections. Republicans will most likely write off Mr. Trump as a one-time phenomenon and not do anything. In doing so, both parties will ignore lessons from the history of the Southern conservative majority.
What might be happening instead is something new in the South: true two-party politics, in which an urban liberal-moderate Democratic Party fights for votes in the increasingly multiethnic metropolitan South against an increasingly rural, nationalistic Republican Party. If that happens, it will transform not only the politics of the American South, but those of America itself. |

Laugh all you want. They would have followed the Romney route of silence long ago, Cruz included.
