NBC thinks they control reality. Maybe the once had that power but we now live in an amazing time of the Internet.

Republicans if a poll shows Trump up by 3 then 2 weeks later the same poll shows Clinton up by 5 the poll is BS

So if Trump is up the polls are 101% if Clinton is up the poll is 101% BS

Polls by

Faux Snooze
Rasmussen
Breitbart

have been proven to be really biased and bs

The MSM could care less about what all the people of the US have to say.

It's really 1 poll with 2 different questions. Either an outlier or straight up rigged.

538 did a statistical analysis of all of the competitive states, and rated their importance to both campaigns.

Election Update: The Top ‘Must-Win’ States For Trump And Clinton | FiveThirtyEight

The states listed most important to Trump (the states that if Trump doesn't carry, he has the lowest statistical probability of reaching 270 electoral votes) were:

1. Iowa (5% chance of reaching 270 without it)
2. Ohio (5%)
3. Florida (6%)
4. North Carolina (9%)
5. Nevada (13%)

If Trump takes those 5 states, plus holding the safe R states, he'll have 265 electoral votes.

He'll need to get at least 4 (to tie at 269-269 and send the election to the R House) more electoral votes out of the following contestable states, which are also listed in order of probability.

New Hampshire
Colorado
Michigan
Wisconsin
Pennsylvania
Virginia
Minnesota
Maine (balance of the state)
New Mexico

Trump's in position to grab the low hanging fruit, but even if Trump sweeps all five it will be for naught unless he can turn one more state.

Nope. If all the polls this week showed the same I would accept it but the NBC polls are the only ones this week with Hillary massively ahead

Had the polls been in line with the other polls shown - I may.... give it some credence - but as they have her ahead by 4x as much as the other polls - I don't think so.

Sounds like ya'll are using that Republican math again. It didn't work for Karl Rove.

Yep. You can set a clock by it.

No. It's the same NBC that hired Jenna Bush to do some fluff pieces at an exorbitant sum.
