Virginia = just about Safe D

Amazing considering the fact that going into 2008, it was a state no Dem won since LBJ

Yeah, the same rapid transformation happened in West Virginia from 1996-2004, where it went from Safe D to Safe R. We are now seeing Virginia from 2004-2016 go from Safe R to Safe D.

some states change forever (or accelerate their changing speed) if one special election comes around.

north carolina could be the next one.

[Ozymandias]

It's kind of astonishing that Trump is only getting 34% in a head-to-head poll in VA.

Virginia=Maryland

DOMINATING

I think this will be called at poll closing time.

If it is, we'll know that the election is over.

Wow, good job Trump campaign!

With this kind of margin, Comstock would definitely lose, maybe even Janett Ditmar could win.

It's really hard for me to see Comstock losing without similar Republican freshmen like Katko and McSally (and Rubio, in the Senate), who've successfully distanced themselves from Trump without alienating his supporters also losing, and there's been no sign of that happening.

OTOH, I could definitely imagine Dittmar snagging an open seat, or coming uncomfortably close, with numbers like this atop the ticket.

Comstock's fear has to be that enough Republicans don't show up to vote.

I'm not sure I believe this will be the final margin, but if it is, Trump is done in NC as well.

Maybe. I wish we saw some internals or something, because I can't really get a pulse on who's ahead. Comstock had a significant yard sign lead up until about two weeks ago where I started seeing a lot more "Clinton / Kaine / Bennett" signs everywhere.

I'm not totally optimistic though, because Comstock has the disgusting trait of selling herself as a moderate when she's far from it.

Certainly possible. Trump at the top of the ticket energizes basically no one in the NoVA GOP base.

Great poll!

[ProudModerate2]

Virginia is definitely categorized back to a "Likely," and no longer just "Lean."
Go Hillary/Kaine !

[Maxwell]

yeah... Virginia is moving into Safe D range.

[RJEvans]

It's really amazing to see VA and NC move to quickly to the left over the last eight years. Next up is GA and TX. I really think the Clinton camp should of laid the ground work now in GA, AZ and TX for 2020/24.
