Nate Silver’s polling tracker now has Trump slightly favored to win (50.2%) the election. While this shift appears small, it has drawn attention because it pushes Trump just past the halfway mark in forecasts for winning the Electoral College.
Silver explains that while Trump’s rise over recent weeks is significant, and polling models, including his, are designed to minimize overreactions to new data to provide more accurate long-term predictions. Nevertheless, this doesn’t in any way mean Trump “will” win, but the race remains highly competitive, especially in key states like Michigan, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania, which are critical to determining the outcome.
I think what will make this different and why I am so sure Trump will lose is the whole abortion issue this time around. And I don’t think that audience is the type of people to answer poll questions.
God I hope so, but Trump’s continued support, specifically with white women, the largest demographic, is just BAFFLING to me.
I do see some older middle-aged women here, but most of the Trump supporters I see are the guys with the flags on their trucks and stuff.
