STATE POLLING
New polls today from Texas (Trump +3), Nevada (Clinton +7), North Carolina (Clinton +2), Colorado (Clinton +5), Wisconsin (Clinton +8), New Jersey (Clinton +11), Oregon (Clinton +7), and Massachusetts (Clinton +26).
The emergency sirens and bright flashing red lights spinning at the RNC offices this morning can only mean one thing: the GOP is now legitimately in danger of losing Texas.
Yes, you read that right, Texas.
Trump's numbers in the Lone State State have been dropping steadily over the past month, and today's poll is the lowest ever. Right now, the state is still dark pink on our map, but there has to be a lot of worry in GOP and RNC circles about this trend.
As for the rest of the polls, lots of good news for Team Clinton, especially the strong numbers in Nevada, Colorado, and Wisconsin.
If this were any other campaign, I'd already be calling the race for her and asking her staff what the curtain measurements are in the Oval Office. However, this has been anything but a normal campaign, and there's still tonight's final debate. But it certainly does not look good for Team Trump, and hasn't for several weeks now.
No changes to the map today. Currently, Clinton has a projected overall lead of 340 to 198. Here are the current averages from the battleground states:
