Trump absolutely has to win North Carolina to even have a shot. The electoral map still looks very tricky for him.

Thankfully the voter suppression laws were smacked down in North Carolina.

Pollsters need to stop including Stein in polls where she isn't on the ballot.

+4 in a state Obama won by under 1 in 2008 and lost in 2012

+8 in the likely tipping point state

Keep dreaming, Trump supporters

It seems like the map is definitely expanding for both parties. In a narrow Trump win, he wins in Ohio, Iowa, and maybe Michigan but barely puts away NC and loses Virginia and Colorado. Not certain about Nevada. If he wins by a good deal, the latter states are easily his 300+th votes. The inverse is true as well. You can see that was already happening when Obama couldn't win Missouri and Ohio was repeatedly half his margin.

I should give everyone a caveat on the NC poll: Stein is not on the ballot in NC...

The tracker has Clinton winning Hispanics by only 55-30. It's junk.

Adding Johnson and Stein ...... 46-42-4-2 Clinton in NC

I should give everyone a caveat on the NC poll: Stein is not on the ballot in NC...

Which means we could realistically add at least +1 to Clinton in this poll, bringing her number to a +5 in NC.
Yeah !

Stein is an official write-in for NC though. (write-ins aren't automatically counted there)

Some of these polls that made it close were showing the record high uneducated male and record low educated turn out. I think most of them were rigged so they would show a horse race.

Any survey is meaningless if it has a distorted sample -- like reaching only people with landlines.

I'd note that their battleground sample is Republican leaning. Take them out and Clinton is up 201-164 in the electoral college. Obama won those states by about 2%. So Clinton +2 here would be roughly consistent with a national lead of Clinton +4. That's a bit low but not really outside the MoE.

North Carolina and Pennsylvania are different enough that Donald Trump cannot lose both and win the election. The last President who had a chance to do that was Gerald Ford (1976!) had a few things changed in Florida, Ohio, or Texas in a very close election with generally close races.

Or like reaching only people that use internet, huh.

According to 538 both pollster have B rating.
Yougov is D+1.6.
Emerson is R+1.3

I admit, that Yougov is very likely better than Emerson, but still.

Methodologies:

Emerson — only landslide. 40% have cellphones only, so it is indeed a very stupid methodology, but those groups that have higher turnout: older or/and high-income voters, probably are OK. Younger though must be highly underestimated.

Yougov — internet only. 15% don't use internet, but who are they? According to Pew are those older mostly white people often with low income, often with low education, often rural. Pretty much Trumpish, no?

So yeah, Yougov is better. But it also has some problem. That's why I average. 538, Upshot, Betting, you chose. But don't cherry pick... Evil

While I agree with your basic conclusion, I will say that Reagan 1980 also had a very good shot at winning without NC or PA, which were both Democratic-leaning states at the time, since for much of the campaign he had a very narrow lead, insufficient to carry either state but sufficient to win the election as a whole. A universal swing of 7.5% (giving Reagan a nationwide popular vote lead of a little more than 2%, roughly consistent with polls before the single debate held that year) gives this map:



This is a Reagan win, 281-257. Since then, of course, Pennsylvania has consistently been leans-D and North Carolina been leans-R, so any candidate winning both states has been on track for at least a comfortable overall win.

I think the battleground tracker is probably junk. Not even just saying that as a clinton hack. Check this out:

You must be logged in to read this quote.

So the tracker has stayed the same since the DNC? If the race has tightened (and I think it has, somewhat), shouldn't that have changed?
Actually, since that tracker didn't include AZ and GA (which probably would have tightened the margins a bit), this actually looks like a swing towards Clinton Smiley

...which basically means that the tracker is junk.
