Clinton, Trump target two different Americas in final push
Meanwhile, President Obama in North Carolina, campaigning for Clinton, was interrupted by a protester dressed in a uniform.
U.S. presidential candidates Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump have battled over the strength of the economy in the final stretch of their race for the White House, with Mrs Clinton praising the latest USA jobs report and Mr Trump dismissing it as a fraudulent disaster.
“We will give every parent in America the right to send their kids to the school of their choice, including millions of low-income African American and Hispanic children who have been failed, so long – for generations in fact – by the Democratic politicians like Hillary Clinton”, he said.
In fact, the survey found that 38 percent of Trump’s supporters have either “not much” or “no” confidence that the votes will be counted properly, and only 36 percent believe it is “important” for the losing candidate to acknowledge the victor.
The Real Clear Politics average of Florida polls found Clinton with a lead of about 1 percentage point-indicating the race there is a virtual tie. Her lead in swing states has diminished as well. “And I say that mindful of the fact that there are disagreements between Republicans and Democrats”.
In Florida, more registered Democrats than Republicans have turned out to vote early or by mail.
“Robby is cherry-picking data that is beneficial to them”.
Trump, a NY businessman and former reality TV star, has made a pitch for blue-collar workers who have been angered by free-trade deals and feel abandoned by Washington. “Republicans are leading in total ballots cast”.
That means the 13 percent of undecided voters in MI are even more valuable to both campaigns, which are sending more surrogates to the state in the several days leading up to the election. “And fourth of all, don’t boo, vote!”
Something unbelievable happened at a rally for Hillary Clinton held in Fayetteville, North Carolina on Friday.
This is similar to 2012, when the Reuters/Ipsos tracking poll showed President Barack Obama with a 3 to 7 point advantage over Republican challenger Mitt Romney in the final days of the campaign while Real Clear Politics showed Obama’s lead almost vanishing ahead of the election.
The Huffington Post on the other said that Clinton had a 97.9 per cent chances of winning the elections, even as Trump appears to have a late surge. The Democratic Clinton campaign is trying to shore up support in MI and other traditional strongholds.
Clinton’s campaign has announced two more stops in Philadelphia before Tuesday. Trump has done little of the organizing work to turn out voters and is relying primarily on the RNC.
Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton charged through vastly different corners of America Friday hunting for vastly different voters in a final, frantic push that traced the country’s geographic, racial and economic divides.
“I think Donald Trump has definitely divided the party”, Sheila Wagner, a Republican from Redmond, Washington, responded.
Although California is nearly certain to swing for Clinton, that hasn’t dampened the enthusiasm of Trump’s local supporters.
