Clinton reaps $53 million in campaign cash in 19 days

All are believed to be key demographics for Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton.

With Hillary Clinton’s lead continuing to grow in states like Florida that she doesn’t even necessarily need to win the election, the question is becoming less whether she will win than the magnitude of the landslide.

Those with stamina will then await results from western states like California at 11 pm and, at the very end, Alaska (a sure Republican stronghold) at midnight.

Donald Trump speaks to a crowd of donors at the McGlohon Theater in Charlotte on October 26.

Hillary Clinton’s campaign on Sunday pressured FBI Director James Comey to release more details about the emails he says could be related to the investigation into her use of a private email server, including whether Comey had even reviewed them himself. That analysis is based on preference polling, recent electoral history, demographic trends and campaign priorities such as advertising, travel and on-the-ground staff.

North Carolina has voted for Republican presidents twice in 40 years.

Clinton has a narrow eight-point edge over Trump which candidate has stronger moral character, 46 to 38 percent.

The up-and-down campaign received another jolt with Friday’s news that the Federal Bureau of Investigation is looking into additional Clinton emails from her time as secretary of state, an issue about which the public has been especially critical of Clinton.

Forty-two percent of Republican voters and 35 percent of Trump’s own supporters think the accusations are probably true. Clinton’s efforts in OH are part of a strategy to provide her several paths to an Electoral College victory – the simplest of which would be to win Florida.

If he wins all the states where he has the lead, along with Arizona, Florida, Georgia, Iowa, Nevada, North Carolina and OH, he will still be five electoral votes away from victory.

Campaigning with Clinton in North Carolina on Thursday, first lady Michelle Obama invoked America’s civil rights era as she encouraged her audience at Wake Forest University to cast early ballots.

After trailing in mail ballots, Democrats surged ahead of Republicans in North Carolina ballots cast after the start of in-person early voting last week. Trump trails Clinton by 13 points in a head-to-head contest, and 14 points when third-party candidates are included. MI has been seen as a state that Clinton would likely win. “We can’t let them get away with this“, Clinton told an election rally of gay and lesbian supporters in Florida. Just over 6 in 10 voters say the news will make no difference in their vote, while just over 3 in 10 say it makes them less likely to support her; 2 percent say they’re more likely to back her as a result.

In New Hampshire, the state’s politics are disproportionately influenced by women: the state’s governor, two senators and a majority of its state Senate are women.

“It makes no sense to me”, Republican pollster Frank Luntz said of Trump’s strategy. “He’s going to lose“.

Trump is also getting help from outside groups, including the American Renewal Project, which is trying to spur turnout from conservative Christians. In his letter to Congress, Comey said that whether the emails provide any new information to the Clinton investigation had yet to be determined, but Democrats worry the news could sway the election.

“I wasn’t planning on doing it twice, it was a spur of the moment“, Terri Rote said, according to Iowa Public Radio, before adding, “The polls are rigged“.

Clinton is scheduled to campaign there this week, following first lady Michelle Obama’s large rally in Phoenix two weeks ago.

But perhaps the most surprising development has been increasingly competitive signs in Texas. Richard Burr of North Carolina is tied with Democratic challenger Deborah Ross among likely voters, 48 percent to 48 percent. The irony of it is starker when her pain is the gain for Donald Trump, who has been universally derided for the crass views he holds about women.

As for Trump’s charge that a Clinton election might prompt “a constitutional crisis”, the Justice Department’s office of legal counsel said in 1973 that criminally prosecuting a president would unconstitutionally undermine the executive branch.

When we do so, we see that there has been a gap this month between live-caller polls (in which Clinton is up by an average of seven points) and Internet polls (where she’s up by five).
