I live in MD but work in VA. Most of the population is in NoVA. It is become increasingly blue since 2008. No way Trump will win here. He stands a better chance in PA than VA this year.

No rust belt issues resonate here.

10. Polling summary for today
Wed Nov 2, 2016, 05:45 PM
Nov 2016

PA thightened a bit but still a solid 4-5 point lead in multiple polls.
Wisconsin for Trump ain't happening, HRC +6 in the gold standard poll for that state.
Good poll numbers in Florida and North Carolina, both with small leads.
Not so good numbers in Ohio and Arizona (both about -5), they might slip away
And a terrible poll out of Nevada (-7), but that is most likely a massive outlier with several red flags (HRC losing Clark County, winning women only by 1 point)

…that show wild swings. I doubt there were any serious polls of Virginia that showed HRC up 12, even at her highest. That looked like an outlier then, and still looks like an outlier now.

16. factfinder are you trying to surpress the enthusiam on DU with bullshit
Wed Nov 2, 2016, 06:00 PM
Nov 2016

Here are all of the latest polls in Virginia:

Emerson 10/28-10/30 Clinton 49 Trump 45 Clinton +4 Clinton +5

Remington Research 10/30-10/30 Clinton 47 Trump 43 Clinton +4 Clinton +5

Washington Post 10/27-10/30 Clinton 48 Trump 42 Clinton +6 Clinton +5

Winthrop 10/23-10/30 Clinton 44 Trump 39 Clinton +5 Clinton +3

Hampton University Oct. 26-30 Clinton 41% Trump 44% Trump + 3 Trump +2

The first result shown (such as Clinton +4 for the first poll) is the actual result of the poll while the second in bold is the result corrected for bias by Nate Silver. The order in which they are listed indicates the weight given to each of the polls as assigned by Silver so of the five he considers the Winthrop poll the least accurate.

I think that if you are not a troll it is highly coincidental that you only reported on the poll which happens to provide the worst results and the one which is probably an outlier.

Oh by the way, Silver currently is giving Hillary an 82.6% chance of winning Virginia - I'll take those odds every day Mr. factfinder.

that showed a 6 or 7 point gain in VA and everyone jumped down my throat. It was right after Trump left Virginia Beach. Hilllary has not been here at all. I haven't heard about Kaine being here either. If we lose VA with Kaine on the ticket she is in trouble. Hope northern VA turns out big because we have a bunch of nuts down here.
