NBC Battleground Map: Clinton Surges Past 270 Electoral Votes

After releasing our seven battleground-state polls last week -- and seeing several other state surveys -- we've updated our NBC battleground map. The states in Hillary Clinton's column now add up to 288 electoral votes, which exceeds the 270 needed to win the presidency. Donald Trump, meanwhile, is at 174 electoral votes, and an additional 76 are in the Tossup category. Our last map, back in July, showed Clinton with a 255-190 advantage — so Clinton's tally has gone up since the conventions, while Trump's has declined.



•Likely Dem: CA, CT, DC, DE, HI, IL, ME (3 EVs) MD, MA, MN, NJ, NM, NY, OR, RI, VT, WA (200 electoral votes)
•Lean Dem: CO, MI, NE (1 EV), NH, NC, PA, VA, WI (88),
•Tossup: FL, GA, IA, ME (1EV), NV, OH (76)
•Lean GOP: AZ, KS, MO, SC, UT (41)

4. of course, this doesn't take into account what Putin's cyber-punks might do to help Donnie out

... like hacking into voting machines which don't kick out a paper trail (although, if you can hack into a machine, I'm not sure a paper trail is a problem. Just make sure that is consistent with your hacked vote count).

2. GEORGIA really is a toss up

6. Amazing, but ONLY for the presidency.

As a California to Georgia transplant, I'll take it.
