Election Update: Women Are Defeating Donald Trump
http://fivethirtyeight.com/features/...-donald-trump/

A series of national polls released on Tuesday showed Hillary Clinton leading Donald Trump by margins ranging from 5 to 11 percentage points — except for the USC Dornsife/Los Angeles Times tracking poll, which defiantly continues to show Trump up by 2 points. There isn’t yet enough data from after Sunday night’s debate to really gauge its impact, however. For that matter, the polls may not yet have fully caught up to the effects of the release on Friday of a 2005 videotape, which showed Trump making vulgar comments about women and condoning unwanted sexual conduct toward women. For the time being, Clinton’s lead is holding at about 6 percentage points in our polls-only model, which gives her an 84 percent chance of winning the White House. Clinton’s chances are 80 percent in our polls-plus forecast.

But while we’re in something of a wait-and-see mode, one demographic split caught my eye. That was from a Public Religion Research Institute poll conducted on behalf of The Atlantic...

Well, between the sexist tape and Hillary being the first woman of a major party to run for president, I guess it's not entirely surprising.

Very informative Maru. I have just watched a BBC news item about an American family, which supports your 'If Men Only Voted' poll. The mother was voting Clinton, but Father and son were both voting Trump.

It highlights that it would be even more dangerous to leave the men to vote alone. What a horrid outcome it would be

The reason he got there and the reason why his popularity is fading fast are one and the same

What evidence is there to suggest this?

tell me again what qualities you admire in Donald trump? I get why you like him so much now

I thought your signature was in your post and so kept looking at the line of people for "problematic women" (aka "proof") who were voting... I was thinking this was the oddest (and yet coolest) voting line ever... looks like a polling station in Galveston, TX



Still it didn't make any sense at first. The women are obviously having too much fun, but it also appears the men are also having some fun as well though some of the men are looking forward (and somewhat more seriously), so I just started checking to see if it had something to do with women "breaking" the line ...

Sign of the times that we'd be looking for the slightest hint of context in everything.

See my response to LT.

Then go look your mother in the eye and say that again. Go on I dare you.

[UserSince2005]

women better fall in line with their man and vote correctly.
