In the House, each state delegation gets one vote in the presidential contingent election.
The 11th-hour push for votes in race for the White House reached fever pitch today with the two main candidates going head to head in the same state. Either way, Trump would be at 269 electoral votes; Clinton would be at 263 if McMullin won Utah or 269 if she won it.
Democrats are up 6 percentage points among early voters. OH polls, for example, show the state going red despite having voted for Obama in both 2008 and 2012.
According to analysis by experts and a specialized database firm, Catalist, quoted by CNN, Latinos were more than twice as likely to have already voted in Florida at this stage compared to 2012. Earlier in the day, he called it “demeaning to the political process”. Trump predicted that he will win MI and the White House.
Still, we should be careful. Democrat Hillary Clinton and Republican Donald Trump plan to cast their votes later this morning.
The string of events sent Trump tumbling in the polls, allowing Hillary Clinton to open up a lead that approached double digits. It’s also possible that Republicans turnout in disproportionately strong numbers on Election Day, despite previous trends.
Win or lose, Trump is in a prime position to either lead a remaking of the party he has upended or launch a new one.
Well, it depends on whether the polls are underestimating Clinton only in Nevada or whether there’s a more systemic problem. “I’m hearing people say “We should be more concerned with their feelings” than ourselves and our children and I say enough”. Harry Reid was going to do.
Of all the competitive states on this year’s map, only Florida needs to go into Clinton’s column for her to win the race.
Clinton, speaking at Grand Valley State University near Grand Rapids, said the election is “basically between division and unity in our country”. That’s not nothing, but it’s not much, either.
The Democrat’s path to victory goes through the American Rust Belt – states like Pennsylvania, Ohio and MI, which voted for Barack Obama but are not as enthusiastic about Clinton.
Of the states in which those cities are located – Colorado, Iowa, Minnesota, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Virginia – only Iowa is now leaning Republican, a clear sign Trump is making a last-gasp play for blue territory that could help score a historic upset. Without New Hampshire and its four electoral votes, Clinton falls back below 270 electoral votes on this map.
Polls give Clinton a national lead, albeit a narrow one. Stabenow criticized Trump in her introduction saying that that voters in MI and nationwide “have a once-in-a-generation choice” to make on Election Day. Nevada’s population is nearly evenly split up between Democrats and Republicans, just like that of other swing states. Obama underperformed the RCP average in Iowa, still winning handily, and overperformed in New Mexico and Nevada in 2008. At the time, Donald Trump was hounded by the release of the Access Hollywood video that showed him appear to brag about sexually assaulting women, leading to Trump’s denial of any wrongdoing at the second debate and then a string of women coming forward to accuse him of assaulting them.
The FBI announced Sunday in a letter to Congress it had concluded a review of newly discovered emails related to Clinton, and saw no reason to change its previous conclusions about Clinton’s use of a private server when she was secretary of state. Kent and Ottawa counties have been reliably Republican, with Ottawa posting some of the largest pro-GOP margins in recent elections among the more populated counties.
Trump, a former reality TV star who had never previously run for public office, began his last day of campaigning in Sarasota, Florida.
