No he is not far ahead. Realistically as of today he is likely 2-3 points behind. That said, he does have a path to win however, there is no margin for losing in several of the states where he may be only slightly ahead (Ohio, NC, Florida, etc) For the most part we are within the margin of error of the polls. If I were Hillary I'd be a little nervous but not losing sleep. We will likely know the results between 11-12 on Tuesday evening.

Be determined by turnout

Whatever the case really may be, it's important not to be complacent. Go out and vote for Trump (if you support him, that is).

Ok. We'll see who the Latino vote goes to. Wanna put money on it?

The thing is, the Latino vote this year is already double what it was in 2012 when they went for Obama.

You need to tell the Trump campaign about all your Latino friends, though.

Maybe he knows one of the 18% mentioned [URL="http://www.latinodecisions.com/blog/2016/11/03/latino-electorate-on-track-for-historic-turnout-in-2016/"]here.[/URL]

"Latino Decisions also projects that 79 percent of Latinos will vote for Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton, 18 percent for Republican nominee Donald Trump, and the remaining three percent voting for other candidates. Clinton’s projected share is higher than both Latino Decisions’ estimated 75 percent Latino vote share and 71 percent exit poll share Democrat Barack Obama received during his 2012 re-election bid."

There is, however, a large Latino vote that has not been polled but is coming out bigly to actually vote.
Ever since I first read about the "shy" Trump voter, I so wish I knew one of those.

Regardless of who is really in the lead, I think the media likes to make it look close.

I expect one in 4 because some are business owners and can relate to his language. Now for those that say Latinos do not assimilate, those trump supporter should make you see different
