NBC's final battleground map shows a lead for Clinton

According to this map, even if Trump wins all of the tossup states, he still can't win.

 

[shyvas]

Clinton.

Florida will go blue.

 

[beancounter]

I would love to see Arizona go blue, but I don't think it will happen.

 

[Andy_T]

OK, here's my guess...

 

[Second Summer]

OK, here's my guess...

It's possible Clinton could win Florida, but FL and NC? That seems like too much of a landslide, and we're being told it won't be a landslide victory.

It will be a landslide victory. My fingers are crossed, and I remain anxious - but that is my prediction.

 

[Spang]

Clinton will receive about 300 electoral votes.

 

[shyvas]

Florida is red.

[KLS52]

So much for predictions.

 

[Andy_T]

Indeed.

 

[Second Summer]

The silver lining here is that my prediction was more correct than anyone else in the thread ... Looks like my only mistakes might turn out to be Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania.

I wonder how the pollsters could get it so wrong, though?

 

[Freesia]

I thought Clinton would win, that was my prediction.. but this morning i saw a show which the host predicted Trump. Their reasoning is that there were many Trump haloween costumes bought and worn.. apparently that has been a guide in the past of elections.

Surprisingly they were right about this.

Well, in hindsight it is - like always - pretty clear ... many people in those polls were likely ashamed to admit they were voting for Trump. But ... they still did.

 

[Moll Flanders]

Yes, I heard that there might have been far more "shy" Trump voters than the polls thought. Some also might have been lying to pollsters when they were asked.

I just had a sickening feeling he would win. And there are Trump signs all over my neighborhood. Ugh. I have been up since 3 am and I just feel sick to my stomach and numb. I think I am going to unplug the tv and throw it away, get rid of my radio, and stay away from news on the web. It's the only way I will be able to keep my appetite.

Not bad; actually quite impressive.

Perhaps you could become on of their (more expert) pollsters ?

Yup. I have a rare headache & feel slightly nauseated. I know I drank too much last night... but, hell, this sh*t was like watching a horrific thousand-car pile-up, in slow-motion....

I sense sort of an internal full-body tremor... my hands are shaky... even noticed my right cheek & upper lip start to twitch.

This sounds like a white Bradley Effect.
