Don't panic

Hampton University, B rated poll, came out with Trump +3 in Va. Not going to link to it cause I don't want to drive traffic to their site, but they had 15% undecided, which is implausible at this point in the game. The poll was taken during peak Comey. Other, higher quality polls, had Clinton plus 4-5 over the same period. Trump is NOT winning Virginia.

On election night our numbers are going to start out down....way down. This happens every election and people panic every election. This is because the rural areas come in first and NoVA always comes in last. If we can keep Trump's statewide lead to 10 or less before Nova then we should be ok.
