That “tie” scenario is also identical to the 2004 results except giving the Dems NM and OH.
NV has 7% Mormons, one of the top 5 Mormon states in the nation. Isn’t it possible their turnout could be being underestimated and they could give Romney the edge? Keeping in mind NV also went Republican in both Bush Jr. elections.
The local news here in Maine an hour ago mentioned that Team Romney will start ad buys here in Maine. The Romney people are trying to take the entire state.....in lieu of that, they hope to win at least the 2nd congressional district.
An added bonus of TV ads in Maine....some of those ads will be seen in parts of New Hampshire.
So far, I haven’t seen any Obama ads since the Olympics last August and only one Romney ad (on October 1st). I also saw Romney ads during the Olympics.
If NV is a lost cause as some have suggested, then IA(6), NH(4), and ME(1) leaves Romney one EV short of a tie (270-268). Romney really needs one of OH or WI to make it work without NV.
If it truly is this close now, we will lose the 2016 election and this country will be toast until collapse.
PA didn’t like that ‘bitter clinger’ comment - but we’ll see...
Considering the beating that Las Vegas has taken under Obama, I can’t imagine why any Nevada voter would opt for four more years of this. Are they just assuming that no matter how the vote goes, the Teamsters will pull enough stuffed ballot boxes out of the trunks of Lincoln Continentals to win it for Obama?
Either that or PA. From what I understand the only thing that might have changed in NV is a higher Hispanic population since Bush won it both times.
NV has also voted with the winner of the presidential election every time since 1980. I’m not sure why it would be written off now.
