Florida, North Carolina, New Hampshire, Nevada. She needs ONE.



For the sake of argument, I've given all red-leaning tossups to the GOP sexual predator, and left all blue-leaning tossups blank. Assuming Hillary's "firewall" holds, she has 268 EVs in the bag.

She only needs one more state. One out of four.

And last I checked, all four were looking pretty good.

Polls in Florida close at 7pm EST. In North Carolina, 7:30 EST. In New Hampshire it varies by location, but generally 7pm EST. In Nevada, 10pm EST or 7pm PST (except for West Wendover which is in MST because sometimes people are weird).

Basically, if New Hampshire is as good as it looks, and if it's called right away, and if there are no apparent holes in the firewall, we might know by 7pm EST that Hillary is the President-elect. That's 32 hours from now.

Fingers crossed.

i feel very confident that she'll win nevada and new hampshire, and florida and north carolina both appear to be leaning her way as well in both the early vote and most polling available.

I predict New Hampshire and Florida go to Clinton. I revised my idea of Clinton not getting Florida. I'll still be shocked if she passes 300 EVs...but many pollsters are calling that so hope they are right.

As long as there is a threat of faithless electors, I won't feel comfortable with less than 273 EVs.

9. IF she does not lose any of the other blue ones...I like our hand MUCH better than his but

I just hope people up in Michigan, PA and Wisconsin get out and vote. As long as our numbers our up..we got this! I would love for her to take all of them just to knock him to his knees. He deserves it after all of the things that he has said during this campaign. He is a despicable man and he deserves everything that I hope is coming.

History of messing with vote counts ...if Walker flips WI for Trump, and Scott messes with Fla totals, we could be in trouble, even with Nevada and NH for Hillary.
