Clinton +5 in FL is significant

Yeah I didn't expect a tie or lead for Hillary in GA, but being up 5 in FL is even better.

NH: Women who are not currently supporting Trump - Would you consider voting for Trump?

No - 91%
Maybe - 9%
Yes - 0%

You know things are going good when Trump +4 in GA is a "bad" poll.  Overall a solid set of numbers for Clinton.

I love how CBS aired those numbers from angry NH women about how they're never ever voting for Trump.

New Hampshire is 99.9% gone for Trump

FL is quite strong for Hillary, NH about where everyone expected and GA better for Trump than I would have thought.

fully online polls with an R lean this cycle that usually underestimated POC support for Clinton.

Those numbers are in line with a 7-9% Clinton-lead nationally.

The numbers in Florida are very promising.
Agree that NH is at least Likely at this point, and will not fall lower than Lean by Nov. This will not be a toss-up state, but will be guaranteed win for Hillary.
GA needs work ; I question if Hillary should spend resources here.

One thing that is important... with LV screens in place the Johnson/Stein numbers drop.

There's a lot of upside for her in investing in Georgia. She doesn't need to spend the money elsewhere to win, and there are a lot of inactive voters who can be registered and motivated to vote and start turning things around. Trump having zero campaign in the state would subtract a few points from his lead.

The idea of GA voting to the left of FL was also strange to me, so these numbers make more sense. I'll certainly take a 5-point lead in FL, and this confirms NH being out of play.

Out of play seems a little strong to me. These are good numbers for HRC, no doubt - but she's also leading by like 7 points or so nationally. If the race was to tighten after the debate or with some kind of economic trouble, NH could be swingin' again.

No. It's gone.

Maybe if Clinton killed a girl on live TV and said that women shouldn't be allowed to vote, Trump would only lose NH by 2.

We have reached peak TN Volunteer, folks.

I want to agree, but the 50% runoff threshold could severely hurt Dem downballot progress there.  Let's see if McMullin gets on the AZ ballot.  If he does, I think AZ becomes the better Clinton target.  If not, invest in AZ.

Put that way—I agree that AZ is a better target than GA. Certainly its Republican statewide officials sound more scared than Georgia's already! I'd say to fund both, but I don't know if the Clinton campaign can do that.

From the (approx.) 7 most widely known media outlets to track the presidential race, The Cook Political Report is the last to still show NH as "toss-up."
I predict that by latter this week, The Cook will adjust the status to show NH at least "Lean," but possibly "Likely" for Hillary.
(Cook's status ladder = Toss-Up / Lean / Likely / Solid.)

Seems like they only polled New Hampshire;

Quote
NEW HAMPSHIRE SENATE

The Battleground Tracker also polled New Hampshire voters about a competitive Senate race in the state between incumbent Republican US Senator Kelly Ayotte and the state's Democratic Governor, Maggie Hassan. The race is essentially tied, with the Democrat holding a nominal lead over Ayotte, 42% to 41%. Seventeen percent of voters are still undecided.

The poll contains a clue to how Ayotte can poll five points ahead of Donald Trump: 78% of New Hampshire voters say Ayotte is a “different kind of Republican” than the party’s presidential nominee, a view that is shared by most Republicans and even most Democrats. Ayotte also polls seven points higher than Trump among Republicans, while Hassan polls eight points behind Hillary Clinton among Democrats.

No :( But yet they wasted their time polling non-competitive NH ::)
Yes, I can't imagine their disappointment when they found a full 1 point gulf standing between the two candidates.

If these polls are correct, it doesn't appear Trump is down double digits nationally anymore.  7-8 seems more like it.

lol Trump being up less in Georgia than he is down in Florida is no reason to celebrate.

Wow, Trump is only up 4 in GA and he's already winning whites 66/19 there.

Among women in New Hampshire, zero percent of those not with him are an affirmative "yes" and a scant nine percent say "maybe" they'd consider him going forward. Ninety-one percent say they never would.

TnVol, I still hate all of your posts but I will declare you 100% right on NH.
