Nope. Hillary is winning in her home state (Illinois) and Trumps home state (NY).

Actually it's not surprising at all, it fits with Trump's demographic of supporters. Take a look at the education ranking of Arkansas; it's one of of the wort in the nation, along with West Virginia and a few others. You will find that these states are where Trump has the strongest support. Conversely, the states with the best education rankings are all Clinton supporting states. It says something about these two candidates doesn't it?

She's also beating him in Colorado.
Yes because a good chunk of NY is dem territory.

But I wished that people wouldn't go by the MSM polling which is so inaccurate no matter what who they say is leading.

Sans fraud we'll find out in the ultimate poll called election day imo.

Default Do you think FiveThirtyEight's Election Forecast is accurate?

FiveThirtyEight


Updated 30 min ago:

Polls-only forecast: Clinton 75% chance of winning
Polls-plus forecast: Clinton 71.2% chance of winning
Now-cast: Clinton 81.8% of winning

Those numbers are high! If they're accurate, Clinton will the election.

It changes all the time and Silver is not always right.
Recently he had Trump up as winning.

Hard to say. Might be an election showing pollsters to be way off track. According to the posters here, rally size, bumper stickers and yard signs indicate a Trump landslide.

Trump has to thread the needle. That is why Clinton has a much easier chance in team politics and not idea politics.

She is a carpetbagger and Arkansas has already had a bad taste of her.
