By then, you'd probably have to add blue Texas and maybe blue SC

So that press conference with the girl accusing Trump of raping her was cancelled...

No. Henceforth, it will be called the Stinkles Memorial Wall.

I'm so glad the president of the NAACP is calling out CNN for just presenting the "AA turnout is low" without the analysis behind it.

Have they really just been tossing it out there without context?

I never watch ABC's World Report (or whatever they call it) but they're going with "THE RACE IS TOO CLOSE TO CALL"
Which....bless.

It is the wildfire of the Hair Mouse. When the dirt of the Earth has become ash, the fire will spill into the ocean and boil away the sea. There is nothing it will not consume. The last of the clouds will be licked into steam by the towering flares of the Hair Mouse's dark destiny incarnate.

"getting threats" is not the same thing as "too afraid."

Even worse, that it's an enthusiasm gap because Obama's no longer on the ballot.

Those are really bad numbers for Trump.
I don't have NC specific numbers, but according to Pew in 2012, whites between 18-29 went 51-44 for Romney overall in the country.
I'm assuming a lot of these new voters are those that just turned voting age or maybe skipped last election cuz reasons.
Granted, this is just the early vote returns, but if Trump is close to a 50/50 split among white new voters, he's fucked.
We will mourn his absence while he's stuck on the Mexico side trying to find a ladder that's tall enough.

Politico posted a (poorly sourced) article citing numbers from AIF, a conservative business group claiming AA turnout was drastically low in Florida.
a bunch of media outlets took the bait on that one and just ran with it- combined with low turnout out of NC, but we knew that one was going to be low because NC systematically targeted black neighborhoods and eliminated early voting locations to ensure it would be that way.

Is there any context on the magnitude?

If we're doing a crazy map party, this is the result I got from 270towin's simulation
I still think Virginia and Colorado solidifying their status as pretty solid Blue states is one of the most consequential stories of this election, and I remain amazed at the lack of coverage that this has gotten.
I didn't mean it negatively. She is afraid for her life.

This has been a pretty big deal, I agree. It's one of the big stories of its kind for me, with the other being the lightening of red states like Georgia, Arizona, and Texas.

honestly if they were blue in 2012, they weren't going red anytime in the forseeable future.
Romney is about as qualified and reasonable a candidate as you're likely to get out of the GOP for a long time. Take that one as you will.

So, we can use 2012 NC exit polls for an example.
http://www.cnn.com/election/2012/results/state/NC/president/
70% of the electorate was white. Romney won them 68/31.

This is how we get the House back. Hillary will install herself as Queen Clinton I after the inauguration. She then dissolves the House and Senate. Then the DNC and the Clinton Foundation vote on new members of Congress.

eh...I'm pretty much at the point where polls don't matter.
Early voting numbers coming in have absolutely, definitively proven that no one's assumption about where turnout would be (which is half of polling right there) are remotely accurate.

But what if it turns out Clinton was secretly Trump the whole time???
finally our (((globalist))) goals will be accomplished and (((NeoGAF))) will help dominate the (((world))).
He gave us Donald Trump's celebrity with The Apprentice during his NBC years, and now he's ruining CNN with turning it into Donald Trump Watch (Featuring E-mails!).
But what if it turns out Clinton was secretly Trump the whole time???

I dont think it matters, really.
the story has been out there for a while, and while this is the worst of the "donald trump sexually assaults women" news stories, it's not the first one.
trump's numbers are very close to the absolute bottom of where I consider the foaming at the mouth hardcore partisans are.

Well, the CNN poll of Nevada is just bad! This isn't unskewing. It's just not realistic. They didn't sample enough Hispanic voters. They, somehow, decided that Trump was going to win Clark County--a county we haven't won since 1988. A county where we have a 50k vote firewall at the moment. It's just terrible polling.
And, real talk, we need to fix this! Because, it's not going to get better.

You actually can look at turnout numbers for NV, NC, and FL to see if AA turnout is "low". It's not, it's just pre-2008 turnout levels and around where it would be if black registration as a % of the electorate had grown to since then.
We also know how these states are voting!

No. Do not do this.
This was a 13 year old girl who was sexually assaulted by two pedophiles. She is not a political pawn, and her having the courage to come forward (or not) is independent of our desire to win this election.
Good. Keep playing yourself, Cruz.
