I had to listen to an old racist coworker of mine (probably 75 years old) talk about listening into his police scanner for Charlotte last night. Did you know that a CVS got robbed in Charlotte and that it was horrible!? Crime is on the rise! Our country is a desolate wasteland of crime and illegals!
Oh BTW we live no where near Charlotte. Dude needs to get a life.

First Perfect Illusion and now this
538 gives them like a C with a heavy Republican house effect

OK so a lot of these polls are reassuring but my question is how in the world is Duckworth only a couple points ahead in IL?
Something seems off in WI too. If there are any states that are generally considered to be reliable blue in the midwest that would take an unexpected turn towards the GOP, it would have to be Wisconsin, I would think.

Those polls were from Emerson and were landline only (I checked) which means an R bias. That fact that they still showed Clinton up as much as they did is reassuring.
I do agree with you though, Wisconsin is probably the leanest of blue states.

Into the model it goes? Adjusted Leader quotient x2.8?
So I sat out the 2012 election, just wasn't overly enthused. My first election was in 2008, was super enthused and voted Obama, had a girlfriend at the time who was big on Mccain. After watching the election results that night, we broke up promptly the next day as she didn't appreciate me gloating.
Anyway, this election has rekindled that enthusiasm in me, not so much because Hillary has done anything to warrant that but moreso that Trump's ignorance and bigotry and hateful speech makes me want to do everything in my power to stop him from being elected.
So I went to our local Democrat offices yesterday, signed up to knock on doors and donate and make phone calls and do whatever the hell I can to make sure a Trump presidency does not come to be reality. I'm going to be doing my part, and it feels good to be part of this, and will feel amazing to know I played a very very very small part but a part nonetheless in stopping a piece of garbage bigot from being elected.
Oh, and they offered me local state reps signs to put on my lawn free. That's fine. But when I wanted a Hillary/Kain sign they charged me $7... found that kind of odd.

We'll need an adjusted answer when electoral vote tallies start coming in.

Is the Upshot doing all the battlegrounds? Because godcohn's approach to sharing the info is great.
Yeah, 538 did tick back towards Clinton again a bit.
Polls+: 57.8/42.2
Polls-only: 58.8/41.2
Nowcast: 59.1/40.8
Not sure how many polls we'll get before Monday, but I would guess things will reset to Clinton having a 2-4 point lead nationally if we got a bunch of polls this weekend.
Obama team did the same thing. Yard signs aren't considered useful for campaigning anymore so you have to pay for them, it's like ordering from their web store.

Hey, that's great to hear. Every time you knock on a door, it makes it a bit easier for us to reject Trump. It's also a lot of fun. You get to meet some cool people, and some really weird ones too. But that's part of the charm.
The sign thing...ya, that happens sometimes. If they don't have a lot of them, or if the campaign didn't provide them to them. I think we were giving some out, but once we went through like 20 or 30 we were charging people. That may have been the one woman who is like 1100 years old buys a ton of them and just gives them out to people randomly.

Hillary still wins, hooray!
What if when they both shake hands they both fly off to their home planet and we are left with Stein vs Johnson.
WiFi Cancer waves to be the first issue in the second debate with Stein taking a stand.

My poor parents live outside of Cincinnati and are surrounded by Trump supporters everywhere. They've got the only Hillary sign in their neighborhood and someone ripped it out last night and threw it in a ditch. It's a nice neighborhood too so you wouldn't really expect that kind of behavior.

Trump is from mars, the orange planet.
Hillary is from Pluto because her body temperature -380 Fahrenheit after she passed away in 1978 to space pneumonia.

538 moving towards Hillary. My heart is full. 10,000 years of darkness on a slight hold. SLIGHT. HOLD. EXTREME. HOLD.

Eh walking my dogs around Scottsdale, I feel the urge to do that to Trump signs. Of course I don't do it because I'm not a fucking douchebag...

Oh man, I love the smell of hairspray. It's like my jam. I could get high off of it. Actually, that's literally true.
I'd like to think it doesn't.
Kidding. My bestie moved to Texas. It's probably fine. Not as good as my home state of Florida. But, you know, we can't all be Ohio.
