Huffington Post: If she takes Nevada, she could lose every other swing state and still win the presidency.
Democrats are turning out in large numbers in the battleground state of Nevada, building what may become a vital electoral firewall for the partys presidential nominee, Hillary Clinton, in the final days of the 2016 race.
As of Sunday morning, registered Democrats had established a 7-point lead over registered Republicans in the states early vote totals. That margin is just slightly below the lead Democrats held at the same point in 2012, when President Barack Obama ended up winning the state by 6.6 percent.

(10,500 posts)that will decide the election.
I assume that if she wins Wisconsin then she will also win Pennsylvania, Virginia and Michigan. But winning those three does not indicate that she will definitely win Wisconsin.
If she does win Wisconsin then she must also win in one of three places: Nevada, New Hampshire, or the 2nd congressional districts of Maine and Nebraska.

(14,565 posts)Democrats came out very slightly ahead on Sunday, according to Jon Ralston, maintaining a 2500 vote edge overall in that swing county.
He hasn't specified Clark County breakdown yet but did say voting numbers picked up late in the day to surpass 2012 level of the corresponding day after looking light earlier in the day.
