The ad from the pro-Clinton Priorities USA shows white Trump supporters screaming at and pushing black protesters, along with Obama warning that voters would lose “everything” if Trump wins. Clinton takes Democrats 86 – 8 percent.
Again, it’s not clear that early voting is a massive windfall for Democrats. “Non-whites, however, break strongly for her”, Brown said.
Suddenly the presidential campaign is being fought out in states conceded to Clinton not that long ago.
Among Democrats, the share saying Clinton is more honest than Trump has dipped from 86 per cent in early September to 76 per cent. Georgia? Arizona? Texas?

Her campaign is broadcasting an ad on black-audience radio stations hailing the former secretary of state as “fighting for us”, in contrast to Trump “demeaning our community”. Republicans say they’ve knocked on 1.4 million doors and made 1.3 million phone calls.
“The fact is the choice that Donald Trump represents is pretty dark”, Clinton communications director Jennifer Palmieri told reporters traveling with Clinton to Nevada Wednesday. Clinton’s lead in Florida shrunk by 2 points since then, and Trump shaved a single point off her lead in Pennsylvania.
“The torrent of swing state polls still showing Hillary in pretty decent shape – which reflects what we’re seeing privately as well – has me a lot less anxious about a Trump presidency than I was over the weekend”, said Tom Jensen, the director of the Democratic-leaning Public Policy Polling.
Following the release of a tape in mid-October in which the Republican nominee could be heard boasting of sexually assaulting women, and the subsequent accusations by 13 women that he had sexually harassed or assaulted them, Trump’s numbers nosedived, with one poll by ABC done shortly after the release of the tape giving Clinton a 12-point advantage.
