STATE POLLING
New polls today from Georgia (Trump +6) and Arkansas (Trump +21).
No real surprises here. Trump still isn't completely out of the woods in Georgia, but the recent polling shows the Peach State reasserting itself as part of the Southern Red Wall. And the only surprise out of Arkansas is one would thought Clinton would be doing just a bit better in a state where she was once first lady.
No changes to the map today. Currently, Clinton has a 195 to 126 "safe" electoral lead over Trump with a projected overall lead of 301 to 237.
Here are the current averages from the battleground states:
Leaning Republican
