Are polls going back a year really that significant in telling us about the current state of the race?

Within a few percentage points of each other, but Hillary's still not winning GA:

Close than it should be for that state.

Georgia results will be interesting to follow on election night. Will the Trump or the John Lewis contingent prevail?

Donald may very well win North Carolina, although it will be close.

I live in PA so I do not follow NC politics that closely. I do know they elected a Republican governor - McCrory - and their state leadership leans Republican. On the other hand their neighbor to the north - Virginia - will probable go for Hillary.

My guess is (on the east coast) NC, SC, GA will go for Donald; VA, MD, DE, DC, PA, NJ, and NY will go for Hillary. I'm not sure about Florida.

The key states are Ohio, PA, and FL. Those are must win states for Trump.

Hillary can lose both Carolinas and still win the election.

You don't understand why Trump needs to win NC?

To clarify, Trump can't win without NC, OH, and FL.
Clinton only needs one of those.

Trump needs to win NC but Hillary doesn't.

You may as well show the polling result from Alabama. Just as relevant.

I assume reading comprehension isn't your specialty.
