The polls haven't really moved at all if you look at the RCP tables. There was an inevitable tightening over the past 2 weeks as some republicans moved back but polls have been steady since. In the races that matter Clinton leads comfortably in CO, MI, WI, PA, NC, NV, ME, NH, and VA and is ahead in AZ. She will win OH and FL, early voting may have already sealed both. IA is close, looks like Trump will hold on in GA. Comfortable Clinton win in the electoral college.
Over 22 million people had already voted before last weekend and the dems have an advantage with early voters, especially in swing states. Reports yesterday said that early voting continued to be brisk. Although Trump has (unbelievably given his personal conduct) done well with evangelicals, evangelical women are turning away from him in huge numbers. That could still burn him in GA and IA.

So when Clinton wins next Tuesday you're going to come here and apologize for getting it so wrong and for doubting the posters on the ground in the USA (excluding 5ohpreston - he doesn't count) who told you that Trump would lose? Are you prepared to make that commitment or are you just a troll?

11/4 with Betfair if you think you're on to a winner!
I'm thinking about lay against HRC at 4/10 (actually 10/4), if she loses that doesn't mean they will let Trump enter the office, so Pence or someone else could step in a lot could happen between November and January...Raygun said:

£90 million and counting matched on betfair. Wonder how many bets have been placed worldwide, across all platforms? If you include the underground, illegal scene in Asia and the Far East I wouldn't be surprised if its close to a billion dollars.

I think this might play into Mrs Clinton's hands as the ones who did not intend to vote might vote just to stop Don Trump as it's getting closer but I may be wrong.

It was £86 million when I last looked an hour ago. There's some big money going down.If Clinton wins in a landslide we'll have to eat humble pie with Unrep I reckon. At odds-on it still won't pay for his virtual losses on Trump Republican nomination though.

You're right. The biggest danger for the democrats was complacency. There was a worry that said complacency would dull the down ballot. Mrs U is working on turn out for the dems and reports that everyone who had said they were going to vote either has already or is going to, no complacent malingerers.I think this might play into Mrs Clinton's hands as the ones who did not intend to vote might vote just to stop Don Trump as it's getting closer but I may be wrong.

I can't see him lasting a full term. Putin will show him what real world politics are.
Following on from the era when Obama showed him who was boss I suppose?Many of us are not nostalgic for the Cold war and would actually like someone who will deal with the Russians rather than impotently lecture them.

betfair must like Trump, he netted them 3-5 million in profit from provisions only from that market

I see where your coming from but he was elected on the back of a war weary nation and he was never going to be spoiling for a fight if he could help it.Go down as a decent bloke but perhaps not strong enough anyway like Cameron I bet he'll be glad to be out of it.

So if Trump wins...does that mean it's still fixed?
You believe it isn't an issue? Have we forgotten the Diebold scandal with Kerry and Shrub? Given the media collusion on display and HRC's list of corporate backers, I have little to no doubt voting machines will be problematic.

Texas has been moving towards the dems, 4 years ahead of schedule. It should be rock solid GOP and the dems shouldn't even register there. They've made inroads, Trump will hold it but by nothing like what he should and, with rapid demographic changes, it's in play for 2020.
This really was the last chance for the GOP to win the White House. After this demographics move it out of reach. They blew it. GWB knows it, he acknowledged when Trump became the nominee that he, Bush, was probably the last republican president.

The only person "on the ground" (for all the worth that is in a country of 320,000,000 people and 3,797,000 square miles) is you and you made clear very early on that you were overcompensating for not being a native and trying to out-froth every other Dem supporter on Earth.So when Clinton wins next Tuesday you're going to come here and apologize for getting it so wrong and for doubting the posters on the ground in the USA (excluding 5ohpreston - he doesn't count) who told you that Trump would lose?
