Shifting from Likely R to Tossup (Trump).
Been going through all of my predictions so there are a few states where I had to move a couple notches, since I haven't been modifying these very often, and prefer to go through all at once....
I know... I know... I know....
But Meh "Polling says that Clinton is tied or ahead in ME-02" !!!!
I'm still keeping ME-02 honest, since when I rolled through it reminded me a lot of parts of Southern Oregon combined with certain parts of the Oregon Coast, but in a New England remote setting.
I could see Clinton pulling ahead here, and EV numbers provide some favorable data points for her, but the "Washington Outsider" schtick plays well in many depressed rural and small-town regions where there used to be good paying union jobs back in the days, and the Democratic Party now increasingly in the eyes of many of these historically Dem voters appears to care more about Wall Street than providing solutions to improve economic conditions for their communities.
