Cancel elections and declare me winner, says Donald Trump

The numbers have swung back towards Trump in OH (0.8 points); Arizona (0.3 points); and Iowa (0.2 points). In the first 19 days of the month, Clinton herself offset $87,000 worth of campaign expenses while Trump covered about $33,000 of his.

“Putting a lot into the ground game at this stage is smart, but it’s hard to do”, said Mike DuHaime, a budget adviser of the Republican National Committee.

What if it were Clinton’s running mate Tim Kaine atop the Democratic ticket? Mrs. Obama’s emotional take-downs of Trump have become a key part of Clinton’s effort to fire up women, particularly black women for whom the first lady is a model and a source of pride.

And a Kaine vs. Pence contest?

The new poll found evidence that Trump’s struggle stems from particularly weak support among Republican and Republican-leaning voters.

At rallies in New Hampshire, Maine and Iowa, Trump hit hard on his message that Clinton is a corrupt leader who can not be trusted and he pulled back a bit on his charge that the political system is rigged against him. Four years earlier, Obama and Arizona Sen. “He certainly would give me a reason not to vote for Hillary”. For months, the Republican finance team have repeatedly called on Trump to have the cash arrive early as too late would have limited utility.

After his delusional rant about ending the election now and declaring himself the victor, Trump returned to what he does best: bashing his rival.

The warning comes amid concerns from the Clinton campaign team that voter turnout will yet prove critical, despite many polls suggesting that the Democratic candidate is ahead of her Republican rival. But in Friday’s results, they now back Trump, 48% to 43%. He doesn’t care that he’s trailing Hillary Clinton in all battleground states less than two weeks from Election Day. “I will TRIPLE MATCH any amount you can contribute today”, stated an 11 a.m. email message to his supporters.

He added, “I obviously want to see more on the air and with our communications, digitally and on television”.

Trump seized on newly public emails in which longtime Bill Clinton aide Doug Band describes overlapping relationships of the Clintons’ global philanthropy and the family’s private enrichment.

This ABC News/Washington Post poll was conducted by landline and cellular telephone October 24-27, 2016, in English and Spanish, among a random national sample of 1,148 likely voters. While some of the results predicting a Clinton victory fall within the polls’ margins of error, of the 13 general election national polls released on October 27, 12 predict a Clinton victory, and one predicts a tie.
