Republican “Defeatism” About Trump Not Warranted By Current Polling
The Daily Caller ^ | October 27, 2016 | Stewart Lawrence

The electoral math for the 2016 election is crystal clear: Trump needs to carry the two battleground states that Romney lost – Florida and Ohio – preserve Romney’s slim victory in North Carolina, capture Pennsylvania, which Rom ney lost by just 5 points (largely by failing to compete there) and hold on to two prized Red States, Arizona and Georgia.

If Trump can do this, he wins 273 electoral votes – 3 more than the majority required – and becomes the next president of the United States.

How’s Trump doing? He’s regained his lead in Ohio, has reduced Florida to a dead heat, and is within striking distance in Pennsylvania again. There’s been some slippage in Arizona and Georgia, but he’s still leading in both.

Make no mistake: Trump is still poised for a breakthrough victory....

We lived in GA till 2014, have moved to TX because of how swiftly GA was turning Left. Mostly turning because of the inlux of blacks from failing northern states and voting like they did there. In our county, that had been strongly Rebublican, turned in 2012, not one incumbent GOP was returned to office.

He doesn’t need PA, and he’d win a lot more than 273 if he got PA. He needs 2 out of these 3 states without PA: NH, NV, and CO.
