Looking at the chances over time graph for Florida, for Nov 2-6 he had Trump with a slight advantage. With how close it has been I doubt very much that he would "call" it for either candidate and some people got overexcited when Trump blipped up to a 52% chance.

Are you saying that 180,000 more people voted for Trump vs. Romney in Early Voting? Because that would be impossible to know just yet.

Here's a proper analysis of Early Voting trends in Florida.

1 more day. We can do*this - home - Steve Schale -- Florida from a Leading Politico

Furthermore, if there's a Trump supporter on this site who doesn't make s**t up and who is interested in a serious discussion I'd love to hear from him/her.

FLORIDA SHOCK: TRUMP OUTPERFORMS ROMNEY BY 130,000 IN EARLY VOTING!

EDITOR'S NOTE: A late poll showed Trump nearing 50% in the sunshine state.

OK people. Keep in mind the margin of error on all these polls. Hillary could be slightly behind or well ahead! We will know tomorrow night!

Wow. Drudge is running a blatantly dishonest headline. We have no idea how many people voted for Hillary vs. Trump, or how Trump is doing compared to Romney in EV. The 33,000 number Drudge is referring to is how many more Voters who are registered Democrat have voted vs. registered Republicans in early voting. Not WHO they voted for.

Can you guys not think for yourself?

Florida has been back & forth in his models over the last couple days. It has generally been within a couple tenths so a poll here and there can move it. Earlier today Trump did lead in the FL models, now Clinton does.

I'm confused. I didn't realize 46 was higher than 52. Guess it's the new GOP math.

Look at this map and put your mouse over FL. 53.9 Clinton, 46.1 Trump

That's not a small lead. It's almost 8 points!

Trump is leading the RCP average for Florida and apparently early voting for Democrats is down compared to 2012. Trump definitely has a shot in Florida

NC and FL are two states where Clinton's win hinges very heavily on unaffiliated voters voting the same way in the ballot box as they've been answering polls, and black voters turning out at the same rate on election day as they have during early voting (historically, black voters voted early, so this is some cause for concern).

Two big ifs. IF those conditions are met, Clinton will pocket both states. If those conditions are not met, Clinton could lose both, and this will be a very close election indeed.
