Two new polls of Pennsylvania released today reveal that the Democratic candidate is leading by 9-10 points, but most telling is that Clinton is being powered by white women who are rejecting Trump’s candidacy.

After a Franklin and Marshall College poll showed Hillary Clinton leading Pennsylvania by nine points, a Monmouth University poll revealed that Clinton is leading the state by ten. Clinton has crossed the important fifty percent support threshold and now leads Trump 50%-40% with 5% support for Libertarian candidate Gary Johnson, and 2% for the Green Party’s Jill Stein.

According to Monmouth University, “The Republican nominee’s support has slipped among white voters in the Keystone State, who are now divided 46% for Clinton and 45% for Trump. In August, they gave Trump a 48% to 39% edge. This is mainly driven by a swing among white women – who currently support Clinton by a 55% to 35% margin. Just over a month ago, they were divided at 46% for Clinton and 45% for Trump. White men continue to back Trump – 57% to 35% for Clinton – compared with 50% to 32% in late August.”

2. So what's up with white males!? I know some really sensible conservative white males who aren't..

... voting for tRump if someone paid them.

It's like they're targeting their polls for some people who'll support the GOP candidate if she was a wet rock.

9. PA will be the most crucial state on election day.

Donald has to win PA, period. He's been priming his loony faithful there to intimidate voters at the polls. Since he can't win there second best thing for him is chaos.

11. I keep thinking National Guard. Is that possible?

Disruption of voting bothers me more than anything else at this point.
