Ever notice how every thread like this shows a narrow Trump victory?

If you sorted the states by % chance to win right now at 538 then Trump has a better chance to win NC, FL, OH, IA, NH, NV and ME-2 than he does to win PA, VA, CO, WI, MI, etc.  The NYT model is the same except they don't break out ME-2 and they have Trump's % chance to win NH and PA as the same. 

But bottom line is the math geeks are saying this is a very plausible scenario if the race tightens to a tie. So I guess we shouldn't be surprised. 

Personally I just can't believe that NV is more R than PA. I just refust to believe it. I think the little polling is off and it is screwing up the models but I could be wrong of course.  So I think a close race would be that map with NV D and PA as the tipping point, so in essense IA and NH are irrelevant (they only come into play if Trump wins NV)

Wow, there's going to be a lot of lawsuits. With the current Supreme Court, Paul Ryan has a good shot a being our next president.

I'm getting straight on here to see what TN Vol has to say about this.

Also would wonder how Trump fixed his image with Hispanics enough to win NV and FL before PA.

How did no third party candidate get any votes at all?

I'd wonder why Clinton constantly insulted NV Latinos. And I'd be really depressed.
