Presidential race turns to Florida with voting underway

And the reason is no surprise: white voters. I don’t care. And the only way I won was I won by such big margins because it is a rigged system.

The Investor’s Business Daily/TechnoMetrica Market Intelligence Tracking Poll shows Clinton at 42 percent compared to Trump’s 41 percent, figures within the poll’s margin of error.

The latest RealClearPolitics average of recent national polls puts Clinton ahead of Trump by 5.1 percentage points in a two-way matchup.

“They’re not making the same types of investments they would be if they had a robust field operation”, a Democratic aide told HuffPost. “But while the campaign is nearly over, the suspense isn’t quite done”.

This is not a new phenomenon, it should be emphasized.

Obama went on to argue during the event at Kent State University in OH that the Justice Department should have a “non-partisan” voting rights division “that is serious about investigating cases of voter fraud, serious about making sure people aren’t being discouraged to vote”, before pivoting to his record as an attorney litigating voting rights cases. In 2008, it was even more lopsided – 78 to 20 in favor of Sen. In contrast, 91 percent of Democrats believe he is attempting to make excuses in case he loses, rather than bringing up a valid concern. In the United States, however, a pollster conducting automated surveys can not call cellphones, thereby eliminating a big block of voters – mainly young – from the poll.

However, registered Republicans now have a slight lead – 1.8 percentage points – in the almost 1 million ballots received by Friday.

Most polls have shown a tighter race in North Carolina this year than Tuesday’s survey from the New York Times/Siena. Should one of these avowed safe states, like Texas or New Jersey, change hands, it would surely herald a landslide. We’ve seen that over time. When Trump talked about the new Obamacare report, he dwelt on what he said was a “phony” number, insisting premiums were actually up much more than 25 percent. But again, these are only on a par with Obama’s numbers. But support for Trump didn’t shift among young voters overall or among young whites after the tape was released, suggesting the shift in young whites to Clinton came first. White men with no college degrees break for Trump by 66-28 percent, while the two candidates run virtually even with white women.

More than half of Floridians are expected to cast their ballots before Election Day.

Democrats would take the Senate majority if they pick up four seats and Clinton wins the White House.

Let me be clear: this election is already over. One of these Deep South states, after all, is suddenly polling like a competitive race: Georgia.

“They are doing everything they need to do to win, including a massive advertising campaign, a ground game Trump can only dream of and scores of surrogates in key states”, said Clinton supporter Jim Manley, director of the communications practice at QGA Public Affairs and a former spokesman for Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid. But it’s tough to meet that mark in today’s Deep South.
