Ohio

MOE: 2.96%

Michigan


MOE: 2.97%

Still a good chunk of "undecideds". Additionally, Trafalgar has had recent polls showing Trump up in NC, AZ, FL, and PA. Down in MN, WI, and NV.

Actually thats a very conservative prediction. The lead is actually more.

Lots of recent polls have been showing undecideds breaking to TRUMP.

Someone is going to look like a dumb arse late tomorrow night. It’s either going to be Trafalgar or Nate Silver. I hope it’s the latter.

From their website:

We were named the best polling firm of 2016 presidential race, and this year, Real Clear Politics called us “the most accurate pollster of the cycle among those firms that polled multiple Senate and governor races.”

Nate Silver isn't a polster, he just crunches numbers from polls and comes off as a douche on twitter.

I hope for Trafalgar’s sake they are accurate with these They’re finished if the MSM polls are anywhere close to being right.

You’ll get another analyst on TV to say the opposite, that undecideds break away from the incumbent. Both statements are completely unsupportable and should be ignored.

Well if you want to go that route then anything not fact based should be ignored. This would be a dead arse place if that were the case.

The difference is the Trafalgar guy's reputation is on the line. The media will still worship Nate Silver if Trump wins.
