Axelrod: I don't know any strategist on either side who thinks Trump will win
Democratic strategist David Axelrod on Sunday said Hillary Clinton is in a "very strong position" to win the presidential race.
"I don't know any consultant on either side, any strategist, who privately believes that Donald Trump is going to win this election," Axelrod, chief strategist for President Obama's 2008 and 2012 presidential campaigns, said on CBS's "Face the Nation."
Axelrod said the fact that Clinton, the Democratic nominee, is going into normally red states shows she is in a strong position. He said Clinton is doing well in "virtually every" traditional battleground state.
Axelrod also said the Clinton campaign is able to conduct analyses based on early voters because it has invested in the "accouterments of modern politics."
"Through those techniques, you can really get a sense of how you are doing," he said. "And they know who hasn't voted who should be voting for them, and they'll be pressing those people. There's no comparable operation in the Trump campaign."
