Second, in our country, the election is decided by the electoral college. It is at this time a bit skewed toward Democrats, and whomever would be the GOP candidate would need to overcome that. Trump will have a difficult job overcoming that.
Thirdly, Democrats have the "ground game". Trump has hardly any and shows no interest in that. That ground game gets out the vote for one thing.
Lastly, Clinton is speaking to smaller groups but discussing issues. That sways votes. You don't see them covered much but that is how votes are swayed.

That's the best excuse I have read this year. By the way, where do you think electoral votes come from? You make it sound as if it doesn't matter if the voters turn out and vote, that the electoral vote might be different than the popular vote. It is still dependent on the popular vote for a sector/state. If Florida has a popular vote majority for a Republican, the electoral vote does not go for the Democrat, contrary to what some seem to think.
Do you remember that during the primaries, there was a 20% reduction in Democrat voter turnout? Do you also remember that during the primaries that the Republican turnout had a record turnout, an increase of something like 50-60%? Are you still going to rely solely on polls taken by phone calls?
Do you really think that Hillary will garner a black voter turnout anywhere as large as Obama did? Be honest.
Do you REALLY think that any of these establishment Republicans will vote for Hillary? No way. They will still hold their noses and vote for Trump.
I think it is gong to blow your mind when Trump wins by a landslide.
