If that's all that we have for Minnesota (reliable D state since the two Eisenhower votes) then we will just have to take it. No gubernatorial or Senate race, and not as critical as Michigan.

Did anyone expect the state that was the second-worst for Nixon in 1972 and the only Mondale win aside from DC in 1984 to go for Trump? It's not that overwhelmingly D this year.

Minnesota is the least likely state to do much swinging. It's about 50-50 in a really-bad year for a Democratic nominee and about 55-45 in a good year like 2008.

Another crap poll...

At best for Trump he loses MN and WI by 8-10 %, and at worst 10-12%.

idk...Maybe he should spend more time in the upper MidWest instead of the SouthEast as part of a longshot path towards victory.

Thinking maybe we need an Atlas poll of the SW vs Upper-MidWest odds for Trump, assuming he can win NC,FL,IA, and OH....

Is this post based on this?

Looks like Hillary can do what Mondale couldn't; be the first Democrat to lose Minnesota since 1972.

Looks like Jfern triggered the heck out of Masterpiece. :P I would feel the same way if he had said something similar to me about WI.
